Supercharge your study today! From the AuthorBusiness school changed the way I see the world, and more importantly, opened doors for me to explore new things, travel around the world, and work with some of the most respected global business leaders. And it all started with a simple thought of wanting to get an MBA, and a few simple steps I took to prepare for the GMAT.It was late January in 2005 when I decided to apply for business schools. The deadlines are in early March, which means on top of getting letters of recommendations, writing personal essays, and getting the applications ready, I have to take the GMAT within a month of time. I didn't have the luxury of time to compare different prep courses or to find a perfect tutor, so I decided to tackle the test in my own way. Fortunately, after a lot of hard work, I came out of the test center surprised and ecstatic.I never thought I could score a near perfect score (780 out of 800) on the GMAT, not to mention doing so within that one month of studying time I had.I've always wanted to share this experience with people who are thinking about taking the GMAT but don't know where to start. I started writing this book after business school while working at Sony Headquarter Strategy Office in Tokyo and it took me almost two years to finish. In this book, I share with you how I planned my study, how I kept myself motivated, some of the mistakes I made, and techniques I found most useful. You might find this book different from other test preparation books, as it is very personal about my own experience. The GMAT is not rocket science, and with dedication and hard work, you too will be able to achieve the score you want. Best of luck to everyone taking the GMAT!

Description

Far too often, students take a last-minute approach to GMAT preparation, which leaves them confused, overwhelmed, and unprepared for the actual test. This publication offers a logical and progressive approach for students who want to avoid cramming by preparing for the GMAT a few minutes every day. Each daily lesson plan includes a new vocabulary word, grammatical concept, and math problem that students are likely to see on the GMAT. As the lessons progress, the material becomes increasingly more difficult, to prepare students for the harder – and more time consuming - questions. Most importantly, the book provides “monthly” and “quarterly” updates to reinforce material and build the student’s confidence. The GMAT is an intimidating test, but a highly predictable one. Use this publication to gain the competitive edge that you deserve!

A surefire study plan for the new computerized version of the business school test.This book is part of the popular 30 Days series--a line specially created by top-ranked test coaches. Each book is a proven study plan that takes the guesswork out of test prep.

So you wanna get an MBA. Do you have a good GPA? You also need to ace the GMAT CAT. Even if you have only a month to prepare, there's hope. The authors of 30 Days to the GMAT CAT have compiled 30 lessons to help you maximize your score--in about an hour a day. A brief overview of the structure of the exam is followed by detailed information about the Computer-Adaptive Test--from the way the screen will look in the various sections of the actual exam to the way the questions posed reflect your performance. The lessons themselves begin with a list of the day's topics and a brief overview of the lesson. As you work through the book, you'll prepare for the different types of questions (for example, reading comprehension, sentence correction, algebra, and geometry), take eight "mini tests," and spend time reviewing each one using the detailed explanations of the correct answers. During the last week, you'll take the three individual sections of the practice exam and evaluate your results. While additional preparation (including taking full practice exams) would of course be helpful, by the time you complete the program, you will have brushed up your skills and--more importantly--learned strategies to outsmart the GMAT. --C.B.
