Hello,
I am currently having a total work experience of 30 months(from 31st July'13 till date and continuing) in Tata Consultancy Services India as a part of Resource Management Group, I am planning to schedule my GMAT on 1st May'16.
So starting my preparations today, I have hardly 40-45 days left, is this time sufficient enough to get a 700+ score in GMAT?
Also had the following queries.
1. If I quit my job after a total of 3 years experience(by 31st Jul'16) and prepare for GMAT(given that I am not getting a score in the meanwhile), will it go against my selection to the B schools?
2. Also would request your help with references and suggestions for an apt preparation for GMAT.

Hi Adarsh,
1. It depends on the university are applying to. If I was there in your place then I would have asked this to the seniors/admission counselor in that university

Hi adarshgr8,
Many Test Takers spend 3 months (or more) of consistent study time before they hit their 'peak' scores; since you're starting 'from scratch', 40-45 days will probably not be enough time for you to hit your goals. It's also probably NOT necessary for you to quit your job to focus on your studies.
If you're just beginning, then it would be a good idea to take a FULL-LENGTH practice CAT Test; you can download 2 for free from www.mba.com (and they come with some additional practice materials). If you want to do a bit of practice first, so that you can familiarize yourself with the general content and question types first, then that's fine - but you shouldn't wait too long to take that initial CAT. A FULL CAT takes about 4 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take it in one sitting. Once you have those scores, you should report back here and we can come up with a study plan.
I'd like to know a bit more about your timeline and goals:
1) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
2) Which Schools are you planning to apply to?
