Oh I agree totally. I don't think I would have gotten into a top 20 school let alone a top 5 without this place. So much valuable information and people who are amazingly helpful. It does tend to become addicting. Its amazing how much more activity this board gets than BW now. This place is definitely the best site on the net for MBA applicants.


While I have not gotten into a school, yet, I have to agree that I would not have scored what I scored on the GMAT nor would I have applied to the schools I applied to without GMAT club. The site is the best. No other site is even close.

I totally agree with all above. 6 months ago, scoring 700+ on GMAT was just a daydream. Without the club, I would not be able to even think about applying to top 20.

I know I haven't gotten in anywhere so this is definetly premature, but this place is hands down the best resource out there. I was going through some old US News world rankings magazines where I marked the schools I was interested in. My target schools were borderline top 25, and I never imagined I would get interviewed at an M7 school.

Hopefully things work out in January and this year long process will be over with.

Oh, absolutely. It has made me raise the bar for myself. And I started the B school journey with this forum and have never felt the need to go elsewhere.

I discovered the BW forums through the GMAT Club, which came up on some google search. Well, I tried to go there but was addicted to this place. And the numerous invitations and admits so far confirm the quality of the crowd here.

And the forum is so much better just because we do not have any RankingsGod dude like the one from BW here.

From GMAT to application process, people here have been very helpful.

There's no other place I'd be able to find the depth of info I've found here.

Whether or not I get into the schools I'm aiming at. I know I owe GmatClub and you guys BIG TIME!

LOL absolutely! I was so lost when it came to raising my quant score when I first found this site. I never imagined I'd find a group of people who'd be so generous with their time and their thoughtful explanations. Whatever my outcome is for my apps in R2, I will always be so grateful to you all.

Wait,
I thought all the crying and emotion and bonding is on Christmas eve... a little too early for that, shall we say...

Aww, who am I kidding.. I love this group.. if this club was a woman... I would marry her... (sorry I am letting my imagination run wild)..

but seriously.. I would have been so lost without this club. And to top it all, I made some really good friends too.. so MBA or not, I value friendships more..

kudos to all gmatclubbers for making this such a top notch forum...
