Money,

Thank you very much for your insight. I have looked into your story and you did indeed have a non-traditional route. Inspiring. Any schools that you think I should be particular attention to?

Thank you for your time.

Thank you very much for the insight. I will be applying to schools in Round 2. When I spoke with numerous schools, veterans, and admissions departments they have all recommended what you have said. Thank you for your help. There is much to be done, and always never enough time :)

710. Now what? Apply in Round 1? Profile Evaluation.

So I just took the GMAT and scored a 710. I am reluctant to apply to schools in Round 1. I spent a majority of my time focusing on the GMAT instead worrying about essays. I am just curious if I should try and rush my essays and apply in Round 1 or spend a little more time and apply in Round 2. A lit...

Thank you for the fast response Rich. I had to postpone my test date for a month. I would have been unable to take the test so I chose to push it back. As far as the CATs go I was usually about Q44-46 V35/36. I understand that there is a 30 Point SD for the test. I took the Manhattan CAT5 about 5 da...

Your situation is very common among people preparing for the GMAT. The truth of the matter is that EVERYONE struggles with Data Sufficiency (DS) questions at first. Keep in mind that this question type is unique to the GMAT, so it's totally foreign territory. It just takes time for the concepts and...

Hi yearzack, Data Sufficiency can be a challenge for many Test Takers, so you're not alone. One of the things to remember about DS questions is that they test you on a variety of skills that are not, strictly speaking, "math skills" - thoroughness, organization, attention-to-detail, the a...
