Hi,
Someone suggested Sharpminds coaching center (Mumbai) for GMAT prep but I couldn't find any concrete reviews on it. Can anyone provide me a feedback on the coaching center?
I am planning to write GMAT by Nov first week so two months time. My last GMAT score was 640. Verbal is obviously my grey area but I even scored less on Quant (47).
What should be a more suitable course for me in that case. I have read good reviews about so many courses that I am confused now.
I will also need few CAT's, exhausted my previous times questions.
I already have crack verbal classrom videos so that's a starting point.
Thanks.

Hi sank,
To start, a 640 is a solid score (it's just shy of the 80th percentile overall), so it could be enough to get you into your first choice Business School. Before deciding whether or not to retake the GMAT, it's important to define your timeline and goals:
1) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
2) Do you know which Schools you plan to apply to?
Since you're put in some study time already, and earned a solid GMAT score, it's possible that a classroom course is not what you actually need - you might just have to make some tactical 'adjustments' to how you handle the Test overall.
1) How long did you study for the GMAT?
2) What resources did you use?
3) What were your Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores on your Official GMAT?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Hi Rich,
Thanks for the reply. It will be great if you can guide me with this. I have answered your questions below:
1) When are you planning to apply to Business School?: Round 1 is nearly over (considering I am still in preparation phase) so I am planning to send my applications in Round 2. I would like to write the exams by mid Nov '15 so two months of preparation. I am looking to put in 20 hrs per week for preparation.
2) Do you know which Schools you plan to apply to? I haven't zeroed in on schools yet but I would like target under 40 or 50 schools based on my score. So I a aiming to hit 700 on GMAT.
In my earlier preparation:
1) How long did you study for the GMAT? Around 25 days, maximum one month.
2) What resources did you use? OG was the main book but I couldn't complete all problems. Only for Maths, SC and most of CR questions got completed. I didnt study RC much. I did use Manhattan books for SC, but I was still not confident the concepts.
3) What were your Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores on your Official GMAT? I guess Q-47 & V-29/30
