Embea's thread: Mission 700+ in September '09

by embea » Fri Jul 03, 2009 9:38 am
My background --

Age: 24 in September
Undergraduate: Computer Science & Mathematics
Graduate: Engineering Management (graduating next Winter)
Experience: I have around 1 year of full-time internship experience at three Fortune 500 companies + Academic research work.

I'm planning to take the GMAT on the last week of September - that means I have roughly 3 months to prepare for the D-day. Without any initial preparation, I took one PowerPrep exam ( 600 - M: 37, V: 35) yesterday to check where I stand and where I need to improve. As you can see, I have a lot to work on Verbal. I know that I can do well in Math, but Verbal is where I need to put some extra effort.

I'll do my best to share my strategies here. So far, I have two books --

OG 11
Kaplan GMAT Verbal Workbook - 5th edition

I'm planning to buy more books (MGAMTs, OG 12 etc.) at a later time.
