Hello All,
I m a Accounting Professional (Non-CA) with 4.25 Years of Financial & Accounting BPO experience, which includes 3 Years of People Management exp.and approx. 8 months of International Work Conditions experience.
I intend to join classes for the fall'08 and have identified the following colleges in my Wish List:
- S. P Jain, Dubai
- AIM, Manila
- NUS, Singapore
- ISB, Hyderabad
- Judge College, Cambridge
Well, i quit my work on 14th Sept'07 after a 3 month's Notice, so that i could focus completely on my studying. Had planned this well in advance though.
Before i started my Studies, i took the Diagnostic Test from official GMAT Website and scored a 480. expected a score that much anyways..nevertheless...got into full swing for studying..and aimed at writing my gmat in last week of Oct....
My Accuracy Rates from OG10+OG11 were :
Quant : 91 % (Questions Solved 250)
DS : 82 % (Questions Solved 140)
CR : 78 % (Questions Solved 205)
SC : 71 % (Questions Solved 190)
RC : was supposed to start it this week..
Now getting to the root of the problem :
But as fate could have it, this monday had a severe Bike crash and am Bed-ridden cos of the Injuries and will be that way for atleast a week more.
I feel miserable cos
1. My whole plan has taken a whole U Turn,also, the whole purpose of quitting work doesnt seem to be in its place anymore and most importantly,
2. If i donot write that GMAT, then some of my College's deadlines(Mostly are 15th Nov) will be missed...and i will be left with fewer options, which will lead to fewer Converts and eventualy resulting in a Riskier Mud Path...
Now what i need is some suggestions from you, the experienced LOT, on the following :
- I havent booked my GMAT date as yet, so when do you suggest, i book it?
- When i started off, I actually planned to take close to 10 Mock Gmats, but that seems like a Distant dream now, but anyways,how many Mock's as per your respective exp. would help bring in the confidence to take on the actual GMAT?
- Do you suggest i get into coaching classes like Princeton/IMS/KAPLAN or should i just pour myself into OG's and Princeton's for the little time i am left with?
- Lastly, can anyone help me mentally formulate a Road-Map for Further preparation for my GMAT?(Experimental Question !!!?)
Sorry for the Elaborate email, blame it on the Drowsiness these Painkillers are imbibing into me

Despite the bad thing happened, I think you are lucky in the same time. Consider the fact that you could have been injured more seriously. Anyway, I think that your hit rates are good, though I am not the most proper person to give advices regarding your strategy, at least at the moment
I wish you recover soon anyway.

Hi,
Sorry to hear about the unfortunate accident. I perfectly understand your frustration as I myself have been held up in my preparation, though it's due to completely different reasons...
Your quant skills look up to scratch based on your feedback that you're getting close to 91% and 82% hit rate for PS and DS respectively. You might want to work on the verbal though... I think with some bit of work, your SC and RC hit rate can go up...
Now, there is nothing more important than your own health. So I suggest you take it easy, recover and then work on your prep again. You might miss '08 intake, but there's always '09. You might become rusty with what you've practiced previously, but it should come back quickly with some revision. I reckon within a week or two, all the old prep should come back to you.
Get well soon, but don't push it. The schools will always be there, so you shouldn't rush. Best of luck!
