Of course, I went bonkers when I saw those scores but the key was to plug the gaps each time I scored badly. GMAT Prep is a great practic...

In that case, i'd advise that you start your prep right away and target taking the test sometime in late oct/ early nov. That way, you'll have adequate time both for your gmat prep and for your essays.

CR is not exactly my strong point, but here's my take on this: Everyone who has graduated from TopNotch High School has an intelligence quotient (IQ) of over 120. Most students with an IQ of over 120 and all students with an IQ of over 150 who apply to one or more Ivy League universities are accepte...
