Hi Friends,
I am looking for MBA admission. Please guide me about GMAT preparation test. I already appeared for GMAT. But I couldnt achieve require score.

Thanks,

Sajjad Ahmad

Sajjad,

As you have already noticed the questions in the GMAT test are not particularly difficult. The math is high school level and the english is probably the same. The critical thinking portion requires some undergrad level education. Mostly the issue is speed and accuracy, for me at least. I did the test twice to get the right grade.

To prep for the second round, I borrowed books from the library with past tests. Initially I did them to get my accuracy up. I developed a few short cut methods to guess at the answer instead of solving it completely. Then I went back and timed myself. This is a matter of just doing it over and over until your speed improves. There were a few books that showed you those short-cuts. And they had tips on comprehension - what to look for and how to draw a schematic of the story etc. Sorry I do not remember the names but I am sure they still carry them.

I found that the Kaplan books are the only ones that seem to offer the greatest challenge in the questions. This in turn helps you to gear your mindset to answer tricky (not necessarily difficult) questions under time pressure.

Prineton review books are ok and Barron's guide is the worst.

Thanks for your comments. I already worked with KAPLAN. Its nice but I think I couldnt manage time during test and made me confused. I am thinking about some kind of training. What do you suggest? Does it worth? I appeared for test in Windsor,ON. Currently, I am working at Sault Ste. Marie,On. I am used to visit Windsor,ON. Do you any one or institute, who can help me for preparation of GMAT.

Thanks again for your reply.
