Online GMAT prep in one month

Question

Hello everyone!

I am planning to take the online GMAT at home and I have one month at hand. How do I go about with the study plan and strategies? Is there anything in particular that I should keep in mind? If anyone has gone through a similar experience, kindly guide me.

Hi Sanjana, generally it takes upwards of 2 months, to prepare for GMAT.

Since you have only one month at your disposal, I would suggest that you should give an official mock test (available at www.mba.com) as soon as possible, to baseline yourself and understand whether the one month timeline is realistic.

What resources are you going through now? Did you sit for any CAT?

@EduationAisle  sjuniv32  Thank you for your replies.
I did take the mock today on mba dot com and the score was way below average.
Q - 25
V - 17 ( I ran out of time and could not attempt a few questions towards the end)

I had started preparations after attending the T.I.M.E coaching center's classes last year. But with work and other commitments, I have lost the flow of studying regularly and am back to square one.

The college application deadlines are nearing and I would like to make an attempt soon.

What do you guys suggest?

Hi Sanjana,

If you are a beginner, then I am afraid that one month is too less to complete the GMAT prep. It can be done in a month but it takes a significant effort. You need to have a proper study plan and focus on the right areas. I think you should give yourself a little more time and then give the test because there's no point wasting $250 on GMAT when you have not done the prep in the right way.

Hi Sanjana,

I think one month is too less to finish off your prep and take the test because you appear relatively new to GMAT. I understand that the deadlines are near but there's no use of applying for the schools with a low score. Instead, I suggest you to give ample time to your prep, get that confidence, and book a slot only when you get a good score consistently in a couple of mocks at least.

Having said that, if you wish to take GMAT in a month, I can help you strategize your prep. But it requires a lot of effort from your side. Or if you wish to change your mind and prepare for GMAT the right way and then give the test, I can help you with that as well. So, do let me know your decision so that I can help you with the study plan and the strategies. You can write back to me here or a better way would be to discuss the same over a call.
