Hi,

More details are required for shortlisting schools.
Indicate your geographical preference, budget and keenness to get into a B school next year .
Also, provide details about your extra currics.

Alternatively, you can fill this form and we would work on a shortlist for you

Hi,

You have a good GMAT score and a decent GPA. I would like to touch upon your concern about financing the MBA. Unlike public policy courses, there are few fellowships in MBA programs. If you get admission in a good school it will not be easy to get a fellowship and even if you get it, it may not be substantial. In all likelihood, you will have to depend on self-financing/ loans etc. All the best.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
