I am planning to write the GMAt exam in 4-5 months. Its a fresh start and will be taking GMAT for the first time.

I have drive of almost 2-2.5 hours each day. I was wondering if there is any material I can use while I am driving, like listening to some audio.

Please let me know if someone has used something similar.

Thanks,

Vineet

I don't know if this will help you, but the first semester I taught college courses I would practice giving my lectures in the car on the way to class. I would do them from memory, and I'd discover if I didn't know something as well as I thought if I ran into a place in the lecture that I didn't have memorized. I'd make a mental note, then check that topic when I got to the office.

It worked really well. You might adapt this to the GMAT by reciting idioms or math rules to yourself, for example, or mentally walking through problems you did the day before.

You might look a little crazy to other drivers if you're talking to yourself, but that's a small price to pay for a good GMAT score!

Preparing while driving

Jim,

I used a similar strategy when i was preparing for another certification. But I was using flash cards while driving. I feel they are not very safe.

But thanks for your post, your idea will just add to it.

Cheers,

Vineet

Using flashcards while driving?!!!! :shock: I dont think thats safe at all. Good that you are still safe... :wink:

Anyways, one suggestion to the thread starter.. I assume you are taking your gmat to get into a mba program in that case consider listening to some podcasts, for example, mbapodcaster is really amazing. Awesome tips for GMAT preps, admissions to mba programs, interviews with various admission consultants and admission committee members etc.. I'm doing that and would actually help you of being aware and could actually save you some time after taking your gmat!!!!

But one advice, while driving keep your mind off studies and on the road!! :D

One thing you could do is to make voice recordings of the things that you need to memorize (for eg. idioms, quant concepts, etc.) and use your car cd/mp3 player to play them repeatedly.

I believe if you do this every time you drive for a long enough period, you will subconsciously be able to recall those facts (or go mad!!).

Suggestion: The idioms section in the MGMAT 3rd edition SC guide is quite substantial, with examples of full sentences (correct and incorrect usage). Read all these aloud and record them.

I'm thinking of doing this as well, but my daily commute is only 30 minutes each way.
