Not quite sure what area you are in. If you are in a big city, check out Manhattan Gmat or Veritas.

Most of students seem to depend on offline resources like Books, CDs etc.
I really prefer doing most of my preperations online rather than through a book. Been on the hunt for good websites out there to help in my GMAT preperations. Somehow there seems to be an odd scarcity of good sites out there. There are free resources for alomost everything one can imagine, cant understand how GMAT got left out of this. So far ive just got https://www.gmattutor.info which seems to be a decent directory but none of the resources there seem to offer free assistance. this site im giving u is an online tutor...

Anyone know of something that can help???

Are private tutors recommended if score isn't improving after several attempts?

It doesn't work that way. just a common myth that has been created by false marketing. Private tutors help you analyse your weaknesses and gives you a direction for sure, But that's no guarantee that your score will improve. I think the focus now has shifted more to online prep courses than private tutors

Hi zerotoone,

One of the 'keys' to improving your GMAT Score is to define how efficiently you are approaching the overall Exam. The types of improvements that lead to higher Scores can be based on a variety of different things - including your content knowledge, your use of Tactics and how you organize your work (your note-taking, labeling, etc.). A tutor could potentially help you improve in those areas, but that does not mean that a tutor is the only way to make those improvements.

I've actually just sent you a PM with an analysis of your Enhanced Score Report - with some suggestions on how you can make those improvements without hiring a tutor.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Hi zerotoone,

Before thinking about a GMAT tutor, the real question that you need to answer is why, after a few attempts at the GMAT, you are not hitting your score goal. Although a tutor certainly can help you improve your GMAT skills, the bulk of your prep will still be done independently. Thus, even if you end up working with a tutor, you want to ensure that you use thorough prep materials to improve your GMAT skills in between your sessions. Have you actually taken the GMAT a number of times or are you just curious about the benefit of a GMAT tutor?
