A great score and how to get it?

Hi Wolfpack and aim-wsc, I think that it is true that every GMAT test prep company tells you that they offer no guarantees about helping you to get a perfect score. But, a perfect score to me would not be an 800. It would be the score that would get me into the university that I want to go to. Actua...

Going for it

I took the Manhattan GMAT course from March 11 to May 6. I was doing really well with the course until work got to be too much. Plus, I had some personal issues that came up that seemed to divert my attention away from my studies. But, I thought to myself, I have all of what Manhattan GMAT has to of...

The Manhattan GMAT course

Hi erdnah, I took the MGMAT virtual online course earlier this year. In my opinion, Manhattan GMAT offers a lot more than just the online course. There are those online problem sets and the challenge problems archives. Honestly, the course that I took covered a lot of material. Plus, they assigned t...

Timing and practicing

Hi Mayonnai5e, The instructor called on the students to see whether on not that they knew how to do the problem that he gave us. It wasn't a really big deal about the timing, but he used that as a benchmark to help us with the timing issue for the test. Usually, the first person he called on knew ho...
