Hello, everyone!
Being 36, I'm probably an "old dog" here, looking to FINALLY earn an MBA after my first attempt failed (my thesis, on a technicality!) 15 years ago. I received my B.A. in Psychology from Dowling College in Oakdale, NY, and was I guaranteed admission to their MBA program since I had an undergraduate degree from them. Taking the GMAT then was a formality, so I didn't bother to study, and still scored a 680 overall (I don't remember the breakdowns, but know the test has changed substantially since then).
I have been a freelance information technology trainer for the past 7 years, after working the previous 8 years as a retail manager, but with today's economy work is sporadic at best. In order to obtain a teaching position at area colleges, I need to have a Masters degree or higher. I am looking to be accepted into an AACSB accredited school, and feel that a GMAT score of 700+ will be necessary coupled with my 3.4 undergraduate grade point average.
I do not plan on applying to Tier 1 or Ivy League schools, as I cannot afford $100,000+ and several schools here in the South boast excellent programs with a very good starting salary for graduates.
I'm looking forward to learning from you and to contributing to the forums.

Hi everyone
I'm planning to take the GMAT in about 4 months. Personally, I think is fantastic. I´m not a native speaker, actually, I'm takinh a 6 month off in an English speaker country in order to improve my English skills. I have an undergraduate in engieneer and I've worked for 6+ years as a financial consultant and financial manager. I'm planing to follow the guide for novices you did and I'm going to try to learn the most of your experience and posts.
Thanks.

Hi BB,
As I already said in the "GMAT Study Plan for GMAT Novices - Start your GMAT Journey" I just joined a few days ago, after reading your reviews of the Official Guide for GMAT on Amazon. I’ve just found the Plan for GMAT novices and I think is extremely useful to me.
I’m not a native speaker and actually I’m taking six months off in order to improve my English profiency in a English-speaker country (stuying in a English Language School). I would like to start to study for GMAT at the same time so I can take advantage I’m a student again.
I’m planing to take GMAT in 4 months and I already bought some of the books you’ve recommended:
1. OG12
2. OG for GMAT Verbal Review 2nd Ed.
3. OG for GMAT Quantitative Review 2nd Ed.
4. Kaplan GMAT 2010 Premiere Live Online
5. MGMAT Prep Guides - CR
6. MGMAT Prep Guides - RC
7. MGMAT Prep Guides – SC
8. Ace the GMAT (my personal decision based on Amazon reviews).
I’m planning to stick to your study plan for novices. However, I was wondering, why there is no reference to neither OG12 nor OG Verbal nor OG Grammar in the novices guide. When is the best time to study from these books? Do you recommend to study before Kaplan Premiere or after?
In addition, What do you think about Ace the GMAT? Do you think is a good GMAT prep Book?.
Thank you so much for your help.
