Oh so that means I don’t have to send a verified scorecard from GMAT until I receive admit letter from the school?

Not at all. All I said is that school’s won’t check it until later

You must send it to them. They won’t be texting you and wondering when you will submit your score. They do what they want with your scores. If there is no score available when they check, it is usually a ding.

So… I don’t know exactly what coaching is. Or what you mean by it but most people study on their own without a coach. Just books + brain.

you need to buy the books. You do not want to be peace mailing together. It’s going to be like buying IKEA furniture and then spending two days assembling it. You can just get Manhattan books and the entire syllabus is in the books (minus SC) If you get the older edition.

You can of course also get a course. There’s a number of online self-paced on demand courses that you can take and those will usually also contain the syllabus and all the material you need it really depends on what works best for you and how cheap you are 😂

I probably should say poor and not cheap. I was very poor when I was studying. I didn’t even buy the official guide which is not a good idea. Make sure you get the official guide

Is there any advantage of sending those scores? Apart from the fact that they’re free

Is it not better to send it with complete application

Or does the uni sees it as an advantage

if anyone can shed some light on this

­You wonder if sending your scores for free is a disadvantage, even before you apply to schools?

Has anyone else taken the Full focus tests?My performance on them is really varied sometimes I score 655 and sometimes only 605 and once I scored a 685.How similar is the difficulty on these tests to the actual one?

Also I find the data insights section really lengthy where I am only able to attempt 15-16 questions every time and have to randomly mark the rest

It has only been removed from the Forum Quiz.

Maybe you are setting a very high level for official questions.

Hello, I’m new to this forum and GMAT prep. I’m from India and have studied in English medium. Can anyone let me know that whether IELTS is mandatory for the application in B schools.

If anyone is having a list of the B-schools requiring IELTS score, please share, it’ll be really helpful.

Thanks in advance.

English proficiency is very important if you want to study abroad, in almost every college you’ll either have to give ielts or toefel or pte according to the need of that particular college or B school

You need to check with your target B-schools list. But mostly in US TOFEL is accepted whereas in countries like Canada or in Europe IELTS is accepted. Since you are from India , English is considered to be the second language. I think you may have to appear either for TOEFL or IELTS depending upon your school of choice and to avoid any further visa related issues. But again I am not an admission consultant. I strongly recommend you to consult a good admission consultant to take it further.

­I would not say that one exam is looked at more favorably than another, so take the test that you feel better about as it relates to your strengths and weaknesses.
