Hello everyone,
I've recently graduated in Advertising/Marketing and have no quant background - in a nutshell: not confident working with number but Im committed to brutally change this. Thankfully I've found the GMATclub and the path seems somewhat-"easier" now.
My topic may come across as a bit unusual: I'm studying the GMAT because I want to get a job in consulting (Bain, BCG, Mckinsey..) and since their test use GMAT-like questions I thought preparing for the real thing would be the best option to start building my analytical skills. I also want to apply to a top10 MBA program but this will probably happen later on, since I'm only 22yo.
Sorry for the introduction, here's the thing: I've created this topic to get your opinion on the best prep./study plan for getting there. I think I do not need to buy a preparation guide or a Manhattan book right now since I'm not taking the GMAT right away.
I'll apply for consulting in February/2016 and I do have some material to work on my math foundation, are they any good or should I invest on something else? Here's what I have:
- Kaplan 800 2008
- The Official guide for GMAT Review (12th edition)
- McGraw's Hill GMAT 2008
- Peterson's Master the GMAT 2010
- Nova's GMAT Prep Course by Jeff Kolby and Scott Thornbug
Do you have any opinion on these or a tip on study plans?
Thank you very much,
Caio
