Yeah, I guess it depends on your vocabulary, but they do have a lot of words you need to know. The math stuff is easier for sure.

yep. I also think the same. I also already have an MBA from a premiere Indian B School
Pretty sure this is the reason why. I don't think they offer people a second MBA if they already have one.

I just am very strong in verbal, without studying at all, I was able to get 99th percentile on verbal. The good thing about the questions on the GRE are that if you hit a hard problem, you can skip it and return to it later. It makes time management much easier.

plus it’s a new exam format. GMAT is something I already prepared.

It’s really the core content that’s important. I used plenty of GMAT study materials when I was prepping for my GRE.

There’s zero cost to do a free practice test on some of these websites or at the very least it’s very cheap. Generally speaking, figure out what you can do best at.

For example, I found myself with so much extra time on the verbal section that I checked each answer thoroughly like four times. Whereas on the quant section, I was finishing just in time.

I thought a bunch of schools straight out said that if you had an MBA from another institution, they wouldn’t consider you. I knew I saw that a couple times when I was applying.

Even if you stick with the GMAT, you definitely can improve your score substantially with enough prep and practice.

Think about it from AdCom’s perspective. They don’t want people driving down their averages.

I think there’s a seven day trial. That’s how I started. And then I was sold.
