am givin my GMAT tomoro...just wanted to check wats the break time between 2 sections..and cant i even carry pens??and mba.com says watches cant be carried. are they talking abt the digital one or the normal one also.will there be a way to keep a tab on the break time. It also says govt issued drivers license should be good for identification purpose...but it also states that if am in US and not a citizen, i need to carry the passport. Can some one throw light on this..Should i take print out of the mail which they send when GMAT date is booked so that they can see the GMAT id or will they be able to pull up the information from the license(i mean our name,date of birth etc)

immediate response will be greatly appreciated

Good Luck tomorrow!

1. Break between each section is 8 minutes
2. Can't carry pens into the test with you
3. I would take the print out.... license... passport... everything just to be safe if you're not sure

no you don't have to take a copy of the email... all i brought was my ID...well and a drink and some crackers... but in order to "check in" all you need is your id, but if you're unsure you can bring everything

no watches are allowed.... they check to see if you have a watch on... they also make you empty your pockets....

during the break there's usually a clock out in the waiting room... i would check to make sure you know where it is before going in to take the exam. if you cant find it... ask the person signing you in if there's a clock in the waiting room

"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."
