Good prep course?

[megskis]

I took my GMAT in March (620, 41v, 35q), and was in the process of applying for school this fall, but I was too late. I have since taken a really cool marketing job which I plan on sticking with for a few years. But, I still want to get my MBA, so I'm thinking of retaking the GMAT while it's still fresh in my mind. I never took any prep, just studied on my own, using Kaplan on my first try (which sucked- 550) and then OGs for second round (obviously better).

Since I have some time to play with now, I want to take a good prep course and really boost my score. I'm considering Princeton Review. Is it worth the $1,200+? Or can anyone recommend a better strategy?

Thanks, in advance, for any input!

The main thing you want to look at when selecting a prep course is the individual instructor that you're going to get, as most of the companies have roughly the same strategies and material to teach you. Make sure you get an instructor who's taught the GMAT a few times before and who has actually take the thing and scored well on it.

Good luck!
