I don't know if you've already found a tutor or not, but I used a GMAT math tutor named Ian Stewart, who's based in London. Hands down, he's the reason I improved my score so significantly on the GMAT. I got a 710 (v40, q 48, 6 AWA), up from mid 600s. I highly recommend him - really nice guy and a g...

Stacy Blackman website down
Hi, I have tried googling Stacy Blackman admissions consulting, but am coming up with an error message. Is there a problem with your website at the moment? Is there any way that I could work with Stacy Blackman herself if I subscribed to one of your packages? I'm applying for Round 2 for HBS, Wharto...

I'd take the Manhattan Gmat tests if I were you - they're available with the purchase of any one of their books. Probably the best source to boost your quant score is Gmat Focus though - buy that directly online from Mba.com. Gmat focus is a real CAT (though only 24 q long) from GMAC, so is closer t...

710 (q 48, v 40) - debating whether to resit
I'd prepared for about 2 and a half months. I brought up my quant score with the help of private tutoring. If you're based in London, I highly recommend Ian Stewart - he posts on the forum regularly answering questions. I brought up my quant score from a 41 to a 48. Verbal was always relatively stro...

Thanks
Thanks for getting back to me. In a nutshell, I'm sure I can shine if I get through to the interview stage. I'm fashioning myself a strong career rationale and am reviewing all literature on all the schools I'm applying to quite thoroughly. Therefore, once I've obtained necessary help and my essays ...

Profile evaluation
Hi, I recently took the GMAT and got a 710 (48Q, 40V) and am considering whether I need to resit it or not given my background. In summary: weak undergrad gpa (borderline 2:1/2:2) from oxford in a quantitative field which I think translates to 3.3 GPA, 4.0 GPA on Master's from LSE in International R...

'Gmat740', you really should make sure you don't put wrong official answers onto your posts. I use this forum for my own revision and it's annoying when people state wrong official answers as a matter of fact rather than their own misinformed opinion. Please take care not to do this again. The offic...
