Hello,
I am new here and to the GMAT preparation and have a few questions around it. I am not sure if these have been answered here before and may seem basic but I am anxious and have self-doubt. Hence, seek guidance from folks whose background might be similar to mine and have successfully aced the test.
A bit about me - I have 15 years of work ex and now I feel that to get the next professional growth I should go for a MBA. I want to go for an one year MBA as that will be suitable for me. Additionaly, I want to upskill and go through the grind of being a student again and enjoy the time. I have been away from studies for a loooong time and dont have an engineering background. Going through the study material I feel I can do it but need some help in buidling confidence.
Can someone please help me with the following -
1. How did you go get back to studies after a long hiatus, what was the study plan ?
2. Which test prep helped you the most - Magoosh or e-gmat or TTP (Magoosh seems more value for money since its for 1 year). Is there a difference between these course material?
3. I aim to score between 680 and 710 is that an acheivable and realistic target with a background like mine.
4. Any other insights which can help me in this pursuit.
Thank you before hand for any guidance which can help me get a good start and score well.

Hi MissionMBA2024,
Are you looking at old GMAT scores (200-800) or new GMAT scores (205-805)? Just checking, because the new GMAT doesn't have scores like 680/710.
In case it helps, you can read about the new GMAT here.

Hello! I understand your concerns as I've been there myself. This worked for me as follows:
Getting Back to Studies:
Start small and work your way up after a lengthy vacation. To prevent burnout, I create a daily routine that involves concentrating on one thing at a time and taking regular pauses.
Test Prep Resources:
The Princeton Review provides extensive resources at an excellent cost. TTP excels in quantitative analysis, but the e-GMAT excels in verbal. The Princeton Review's wealth of materials and reasonable price made it incredibly helpful to me.
Achieving Your Target Score:
Reaching a 680–710 is a reasonable goal. If you are weak in quant with your work experience, concentrate only on that area. To become better, practice frequently, complete timed mock exams, and evaluate your performance.
Additional Tips:
