By no means a "small" teaser

Looking forward to this year's scholarship.

This scholarship opportunity doesn't officially launch until early March, but you might get a sneak peak at the details if you Google search 'GMAT Scholarship'...

Hi,

Just a quick question on the 2008 scholarship. I'd like to include proof of my financial need but I read on the rules page that judges will not read any attachments.

Should I just explain my circumstances in the optional essay? I really don't want to be disqualified!

Thanks!

Thanks very much for carefully reading the rules.

You can submit proof of financial need as an attachment, that's fine. But please do not attach your essays as separate docs when submitting.

Good luck!

What exactly is required of a reference? It is not clear from the application process. I'd like to let them know what is expected in terms of time commitment, etc.

"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."
