Re: Last time I took the GMAT was 6 years ago... [#permalink]
Keep in mind that the GMAT is a totally different animal. CFP, series 6, and 66 are all a lot easier to pass than the gmat. Well it really depends on how high you are aiming for. Study the basics and you are sure to break the 600 since you sound like you are a native speaker (sorry if you are not). This test is adaptive and till will get harder unlike the rest of the exams. I put in the same amount of effort in gmat as I did in my cfa which is a bit tougher than nearly all finance based exams.


Make it a habit to read everyday (WSJ, economist, etc) Study the very basics of math and you can score decently well. math is the easiest to improve by far. Will take more practice than your previous tests though if you want 700+ but it all depends on what school you want.

Re: Last time I took the GMAT was 6 years ago... [#permalink]
Although a 700 would be wonderful I don't think I will need to set my goal that high. I will be in an area of the country without the best of the best schools, so I think something around 600 would be more than fine. I'd love to go to a top 10 program or something but my situation seems that my employer will pay so I will take the best school in the area I can find.

I'll definitely need to get my head into studying once I am all moved and settled in, I think I am intelligent enough to get a good score but I am very nervous after my first experience.
