Hi,
I am new to this arena. I recently completed my graduation from one of the top engineering colleges in India and presently working as a finance analyst for VKS (UBS affiliate) in India.

I want to pursue my MBA in one of the finest B-schools in the world.

I started my GMAT preparation very recently and am following the 60 day tutorial to an extent as i am unable to spend 4 5 hrs a day.

I am spending around 2 hrs a day to prepare for my GMAT and increasing it to 5 to 6 hrs on weekends.

I took the GMAT prep test 1 yesterday and got a score of 620 (Quant - 48, Verbal - 28).
I being from a maths background could solve the quant problems easily. My problem is with Verbal. (Not exactly problem but that is what the test conveys)

I AM AIMING AT A SCORE OF AROUND 750. I am quite serious about the test as well as my MBA.
I am planning to take the GMAT in the month of October '10.

Kindly suggest me the ways of achieving my target.

Regards

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
