Hello All,
I am studying GMAT for the first time. Its just been a week since i picked up GMAT.
I would like to get some guidance on which books to refer and what study plan to follow.
Additionally do I need to take up coaching classes for GMAT or self study is possible? If coaching is required which tution providers are good?
Thanks

Simran9Start by taking an official mock to see where you stand. Once you do that, start studying the concepts and the methodology of each topic. Only after you are done with these two, you have to move to practicing questions of that topic (You can use the official guides at this stage). GMAT is not a typical test in which just the conceptual knowledge is tested. It tests your application skills along with the conceptual knowledge. So, without learning the right methodology to solve questions, no matter how many questions you practice, your score will most likely remain stagnant. Make sure to focus more on the methodology during your preparation.
