GMAT Preparation

by mveerendra » Thu Jan 19, 2012 3:02 pm
Hi

I have scheduled my GMAT exam on 4th May 2012. I would like to follow the 3 month GMAT study plan published on this site. Can anyone share your thoughts and experiences who have taken up this plan to crack GMAT. I can spend 2-3 hours per day and 6 hours on weekends. Please suggest me if there are any alternative study plans and with the recommended books. Your help is highly appreciable.

Regards
Veerendra

The plan in general is good; however I would recommend staying up to date with your quant studies as you go into verbal. Also, I would say that you should look to take some more practice tests. Manhattan GMAT has the best stuff right now for those. The one thing I will say is that you shouldn't overkill the number of resources you use - it is better to have a comprehensive understanding of the questions you try than to keep churning through problems.

Hi

From my learning I have understood that taking part in extra curricular activities will be a value addition to my profile during the MBA admission process. Unfortunately I haven't taken part in any of the activities other than my work. Please suggest me on how to present myself during the admission process.
