Yay! This is fantastic! Thanks you so much for this wonderful opportunity, I can't wait to get down and dirty with my mba application with the help of the Precision Boot camp. And what a strong group of people to be chosen from. Every story I read made me feel re-inspired to be part of the mba commu...


To some I'm know as the chicken lady. It's not the most glamorous title, but it's well earned.  Several years ago, I was asked to move to a Sufi retreat center in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania to start a farm-based preschool. Since I had a background in education and farming and was looking fo...


Thank you so much for this story. I gasped out loud while reading this (and i'm at work, so i got some weird looks from my co-workers!) because most of your story is my story verbatim. And I'm hoping for your happy ending. I also started studying for the gmats a year and a half ago, and also enrolle...

Thanks so much for your reply! I appreciate your opinion and it confirmed what I had I thought, that algebra 2 would be the best route to go. I know the class wont be a cure all for the GMAT Math, but my hope is that it will get me back in the swing of things and give me a teacher to check in. After...

what math class to take at community college?

Hello Beat the gmaters! It's been a LONG time since i've been posting on the forums. Why? It's been my fear of re-learning math that's been hanging over my head for the past two years that has stopped me from taking the GMAT. Well, it's a new year and that fear isn't serving me any longer, so I'm ou...

I've been told that the power score verbal bible is a great resource for improving verbal score. I'm still making my way through the Manhattan GMAT material so i haven't gotten to this book yet, but it's been recommended to me multiple times. Also, do you log your errors.
