Last 2 months have not been good (as far as GMAT prep is concerned). Too busy at work.

Once again I start my prep. This time I am going to go till the end :)

Will keep my prep details posted here.

Haven't given GMAT as yet. I just had a 2-3 month gap in my prep.

With almost no prep for the last 2-3 months, I decided to write a test. Took 800score.com Test 4 Score -

700 (Q49, V37) :|

Q - 30 out of 37 correct (6 incorrect questions were DS)
V - 31 out of 41 correct

Confident in Quant except DS. Need to work on verbal. I have put in very less time on verbal prep.

Need to make a strategy today and start implementing it...

Download free tests from mba.com and take the first test. Then you can decide one of the two options depending on the score and analysis of the test.

If you know others and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know others but know yourself, you win one and lose one; if you do not know others and do not know yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

- Sun Tzu

No read the same statement replacing "others" with "GMAT"... :)

Knowing yourself is very important...

Not really. May be a couple of universities to get a feel of the admission process. But want to write GMAT in Nov 2011 anyway.

Actually aiming for the 2013-2015 batch.
