Do we have a craigslist sort of thing in GMATClub? It might be useful if someone in your city was looking for GMATPrep books

Ha ha.. fortunately for me, i didn't buy any books. I didn't have time to wait for it to be shipped before i took the exam as i only had 3-4 weeks to study for it. Plus, living in Japan, it's very difficult to get specialised GMAT books in English.

Try selling it on ebay?

Dude,

You put some serious effort into this. I'd sell it personally, however posting the stuff is a hassle (esp if you sell it online).

I suppose it's wasteful, but I would suggest a ceremonial burning. Very cathartic, no?

Since it is Winter and all, I'd suggest a bonfire. Just buy marshmellows before hand and you'll be set.


Seriously, Craigslist is a good option.

Unless you really need the money, donating this to your local library would be a good thing.

I think I'll donate, the problem is that I wrote in many places...

Not sure also if with this GRE trend, people will stay with the GMAT, hehehe

Kryzak, congrats man, it's so good to be free of that, after one year, of IELTS, TOEFL, GMAT, and applications....

yeah, I guess my process was more abbreviated... just the past 6 months (minus November) of GMAT, Apps, Interviews, and all that... I'm so sick of it.

very interesting article on GMAT vs GRE. I personally think GMAT is a better test suited for b-schools (having taken both), but it would be nice for the modified GRE to be an alternative for those who aren't necessarily looking for just b-schools as their graduate school education.

When I got rid of my books last year, I offered them for the price of shipping here at GMATclub. I had a response within minutes. You can include some type of note where people should judge themselves as needy or something like that.

good one. Posting it on gmatclub and shipping/donating to someone needy is good. I liked it.
