Hello everyone.

I have gone through the grad school experience myself (MS from Big Ten U + Ivy League MBA from the US) and remember the journey well !

I recently realized how much easier my life would have been if I had access to a summarized collection of grad school reviews and other students' experience when applying. Something like a Tripadvisor + Amazon reviews + crowdsourced content for grad schools!

I would love to capture the expert opinions of folks on this forum on schools they are attending/have attended. Anything you can share will help other students choose their "best fit" graduate school. It will take less than 5 mins and you will have a big impact on another student's life and career.

Hope you can help your fellow students here:

Thanks in advance for your inputs!

Thanks for the note.

Glassdoor, Yelp, Tripadvisor .... all have limited authentication on users who post. The more important filter here is the review of each post BEFORE it goes live.

Besides, I got in to 7 top US business schools (including 2 of the top 3) and ended up visiting 6 campuses and interacting with multiple students during my application journey.

I would think my opinion of each school I interacted with (classes, student demeanor, campus facilities, etc.) are still valuable - especially for international students who may not have the same opportunities for first hand interaction while applying.

"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."
