This Dammnn GMAT!!! (I m in love with it) [#permalink] New post   25 Jun 2009, 08:39
With a five years work experience, four years of post marriage life, three daughters and a cost & management accountant degree in my hand, I am all set to crack that exam, which is known as GMAT.

About 8 months ago, I came to know this word (GMAT) for the very first time. After that, I am running ahead and this dammn thing is following me every where. In my office, at home, with friends every where I think of this cracker. My wife is sick of it and so do my friends. I have no longer the tension of loosing job, rather my new tension (after my love) is this dammn word.

Now you guys will be interested to know that what I have done so far?? The answer is "Nil". After having months of on & off days study (I have a new baby), I think that I have done nothing. My initial plan to crack it in May 2009 has gone to hell and now it seems to be the month of October 2009.

Still have to do the IELTS!! Want only one attempt of GMAT due to cost of it (The cost is material in a country like Pakistan). During all this phase, I found GMAT club, one thing it has provided to me and that is preparation material of P & C, Probability. :)

Through this post, I request all of you to pray for a person, the life of whom is waiting for a twist, provided appropriate GMAT score hits him!!!!

Regards, Hussain

What? You are raising three kids, one of whom is a newborn baby and you claim you've done nothing?!?

Come on, man, cheer up! That is just an exam, you'll find your way to LBS or Judge. Just be patient and persistant. Oh yes, and contribute to this forum :)

Welcome to GMAT Club.

Hello Hussain,

Welcome to the world of Gmatclub.
I am sure that you will find this Forum very helpful in achieving your dream score in Gmat.

To start with , and to keep you occupied for a long time , please go through following link which describes what Gmat is All about.
everything-you-need-to-prepare-for-the-gmat-revised-77983.html

Also have a look at the Gmat FAQ :
gmat-faq-frequently-asked-questions-about-gmat-75809.html

Now , the best way to start the Gmat preparation is to take a diagnostic test and to check where you stand.
For this purpose , GMAC provides two tests (GmatPrep).
Depending on your scores in Verbal and Quant , you may decide your preparation strategy.

The link for the description / download is as follows:
gmatprep-gmat-prep-powerprep-power-prep-free-tests-77548.html

PLEASE DO NOT EXHAUST BOTH THE TEST . KEEP ONE FOR THE TAKE JUST BEFORE THE ACTUAL TEST.

To save some time , I would suggest you to read the following links for Verbal and Quant once you have taken the Diagnostic test.

Verbal :
new-to-the-verbal-forum-please-read-this-first-77546.html
Quant:
new-to-the-math-forum-please-read-this-first-77764.html

Please let us know in case you have any further doubts.
Theres much more material / help here at GmatClub than I could ever post in a reply.
Just look around and you will feel amazing.
