When it comes to applying for business school, there are 3 key tipsKNOW which round you are applying.
2. Plan to take the GMAT at least 3-6 months before your deadline.
3. Strongly consider taking a GMAT Prep course.
When applying to business schools, there are 3 rounds: R1, R2, and R3. The dates all vary and you can see the details here. But generally, deadlines for R1 are generally in October. R2 deadlines are usually December/January. R3 deadlines are March/April.
If you take the GMAT exam 3-6 months before R1, you're looking at taking the GMAT anywhere between April and July.
If you take the GMAT exam 3-6 months before R2, you're looking at taking the GMAT anywhere between June and September.
If you take the GMAT exam 3-6 months before R3, you're looking at taking the GMAT anywhere between October and December.
By following this schedule, you can leave enough time to contemplate your essays and doing research on schools. A lot of folks don't give the GMAT much thought until it's application time and all of a sudden they're juggling a job, a GMAT test, and applying to schools all at the same time. Then they take the test and they bomb it. When that happens, they get their score and realize they can't apply to business school with that score. So all of a sudden, an R1 applicant delays himself all the way to R3. Their schedule is entirely screwed up and it's because a bad score on their GMAT changed everything.
Schedule a time to take your GMAT and try to take a GMAT Prep course if you can. These days with everyone getting a little edge by following unique strategies, you shouldn't miss out because you really only want to take the GMAT once in your life. Retaking the GMAT is a brain drain and you want to avoid that as much as possible.
If you do need to retake the GMAT Exam, really consider signing up for GMAT Prep. There are many to choose from, I would personally recommend GMATPill's Study Method - which focuses on retweaking your critical thinking through videos and helps you break the high-end range of your test scores. There are many real testimonials to check out on the site and some have it is better than Kaplan.
Because it is a 30-day study plan and is video-based, it offers a lot of flexibility for test takers who need to study on their own schedule. While others may focus on offering you tons of questions in their question bank, GMATPill (Zeke) focuses on changing your thinking process because he realized that practice doesn't make perfect. To get a higher score, one must think differently on the GMAT Exam.
