GMAT Timer



I've written a simple timer (for Windows XP, Vista) for GMAT. It will definitely be useful in preparation.
12/29/2010 Please, use it as it is. I won't support it at least for the near future. If you need a more sophisticated timer, please, take a look at the GMAT ToolKit (iPhone/iPod Touch application).
If somebody wants to improve it, I will find and send you source files (CodeGear, Delphi) Thanks, Walker.

No sounds?
control panel-> sounds and audio devices-> sounds tab-> check if the sound scheme is selected to "No sounds" , instead it should be selected to "Windows default".







Other Timer Resources useful for the GMAT






As of 6/2010, we have a Timer built into the GMAT Club Question Forums:

See this discussion for more details and a demo.


It provides you with a list of all the questions you attempted!

Erm... I hope this year we will make a study guide compilation like this available on the Wiki. It is good to have the stickies but it is not very systematic.

Of cause, It will be very useful!

Hello-

This sounds like a great tool but I am having trouble with the file- Can someone email it to me at Hardaway7@aol.com?

I am saving it as a .rar but for some reason it won't run! Not sure why - any suggestions?

Walker what language did u use to write this? If I have free time this year (after GMAT and applications), I might look into a java app for mobile phones. So people can practice SC and CR on the go (the rest require more screen realestate and pen and paper).

Anyone need a timer for an Apple Computer?
If so, try these links.

This program is good because you can set it to 2 min, when it will give you a short beep sound and then recycle for another 2 min countdown, and on and on. The bad side is that I think you can only set it for 1 min increments (1 min 45 sec, for example, is not possible)
https://nitram-nunca.com/downloads/minutes/

This program is good too but I haven't found a button to make it recycle yet. However, you can set it to any countdown time that you wish.

Hopefully this helps someone.

Walker I see you mention the timer is for XP - does that mean it won't run on Vista, or is it worth giving it a shot? cheers.

I don't know. I've not tested the timer on Vista. If somebody has such experience, please, post your response here.

Hi Walker
Can you make the timer countdown rather than count up.
Countdown would simulate the actual exam ..
Just a suggestion
