hi everyone. Today I met two guys for a group study session and following were the key points of meeting:
1. Scroll through basic structure of GMAT and all the question types from OG. this will be practiced for coming two weeks after which a mock test willl be taken by each one of us. Based on the results, weak points will be identified and future strategies will be made.
2. Books to be referred by us were finalised as of now. OG is a must. Kaplan for quants and Manhattan for verbal.
We would encourage if more aspirants are interested in joining the study group.

From my experience, coaching classes in India are doing pure business and making money. In most of the coaching classes in India one will found faculties claiming that they scored 700+, that their grammar concepts are 101% clear, and that one is at the right place for GMAT prep, but sooner or later one realizes that faculty don't even know the depth and breadth of GMAT. If you are joining any GMAT classes ask institute to provide score card of faculty, no need to shy because it is better than wasting your money and time. Poor guidance at early stage is the root cause behind multiple year + attempts in GMAT. Most of the people realizes what GMAT is exactly only after their first attempt. Therefore, element of self study must go independent of coaching classes, and do not 100% rely on what coaching classes claim. "Gmat is not halva (cake walk)"

Further, if one wants to go ahead with self study or group study, then I would recommend for practice OG and GMATCLUB and for specific topic such as SC take MGMAT SC, MGMAT verbal foundation, and e-gmat SC package, CR take powerscore, a best CR diet, and RC there is no as such straight forward resource to improve accuracy -- some people opt note making technique to improve accuracy and compromise speed. For Quants, gmatclub has best gurus and resources available on earth, so just practice as much as you can.

Hi everyone,

Apologies for being absent from the forum for a long time.
I have started preparing for the GMAT again afresh.
Would like to receive guidance from all the senior members here and also be a part of study group if interested.

The idea of a google hangout can be very effective. Will drop a PM to @narenn regarding the same.

Cheers. Happy studying.

Hi,

I am a s/w engg. and I live in Pune.I urgently need to start prep for GMAT.

If any one can share any info about coaching classes in Pune and their tall claims, please share your valuable tips with us.

Also if anyone interested in forming a study group, here is one platform.

I did some research and I came to know about 2 classes:
1. Jamboree(kothrud): My friend attended Jamboree in Delhi and had good experience. so I went to enquire, place is very small. So only few students in a class. The only bummer was the attendant who was, well, quite tall claims which were suspicious. He was makin quite some unbelievable success stories which were difficult to digest. He said that in last years classroom batch, 80% scored above 700!!! But I guess people do make these claims now a days everywhere

2. Dilip Oaks
: Very famous here. But the class strength is 70-80 or even more . Too much na? I think GMAT requires personal attention. Any alumni?

Others can please share their advice and experiences. :-D
Thanks.

Hi,

I am planning to re-take GMAT in Jan '15. My previous score was 628 and I want to go beyond 720.
To achieve this goal I am planning to join a Training Institute. More precisely, I need an active and focused study circle. I was wondering if there is an active group at the moment.
Please let me know your views and suggestions.

Regards,
Prateek

My Score is AWA 6 IR 8 Q 51 but V 25 and sum total of 640.

I am looking to strengthen my Verbal and quickly re-appear in a month. Please advise if you are a study group with similar objective or a coaching institute which can help me concentrate on my Verbal.

Hi All.

This topic is really old and I believe I won't get a reply.

Can somebody please suggest options for classroom classes in Pune. Kaplan is not with Chopra's any more.

Is anyone interested in group study?

Thanks.
