Hi everyone,
My name is Sarah and I am trying to get an early start for next year's round of b-school applications. I have been out of school for several years and am currently working as a chemistry teacher. I am interested in beginning my own not-for-profit to promote green energy in rural areas and think the progams at Berkeley and Yale would be an excellent fit.
But first I need to earn a very competitive score on the GMAT. Does anyone have experience with test prep companies? My math is pretty solid, but I could use real help on the verbal, so any companies offering specialize tutoring services would be ideal. I would also be interested in companies with consulting services that people have used.
Be well!
Sarah
I used Veritas in-person prep course. They were okay, I'd recommend them because they had lots of homework problems and motivated me to study.
I think the key is to set a test date, and give yourself a solid deadline so you will prep for the test. Save the online tests from GMAT for the last couple of days as a warm-up to the test. The trick is drilling yourself with lots of practice problems.
Regarding math being solid. I have two degrees in engineering and ended up with a 77% quant, and 95% verbal. So I would practice the quant section. Just dont assume you'll do well
