Hi anuragp,

Welcome to GMATCLUB. You should dedicate around 4 months to study for GMAT. You should start by giving a GMAT Mock once. You can then know your weaknesses and work on them. If you are willing to study dedicatedly for that period, you are sure to achieve your goal. I believe you may benefit from taking a GMATPREP course. If you are willing, there are some great GMAT prep companies that can help you with your preparation.

In order to make an informed decision I would highly encourage you to go to their websites and try on their free trial and decide for yourself which one do you like better. You can try out free access to EmpowerGMAT, Magoosh and Optimus Prep as they have great reviews on GMATCLUB.

Also for verbal, I would highly encourage you to consider e-gmat verbal online or the e-gmat verbal live course. They are both amazing courses especially designed for non-natives. They offer almost 25% of their courses for free so you can try out their free trial to decide which one you want to go for. Plus the e-gmat Scholaranium which is included in both the courses is one of the best verbal practice tools in the market. You can easily track your progress in that you can identify your strengths and analyze and improve on your weak areas.

You can also try out the MGMAT guides they are phenomenal and cover the entire syllabus really well. MGMAT foundation of GMAT Quant anf foundation of GMAT verbal will particularly help you solidify your base. I must add that if you are particularly looking to discover and improve on your weak areas in Quant; a subscription to GMATCLUB tests is the best way to do that. They are indeed phenomenal and will not only pinpoint your weak areas but also help you improve on them.

Further taking multiple mocks might help. Apart from the GMATPREP, Manhattan GMAT tests and Veritas Prep Tests in my experience have good verbal and Quant section and will certainly help you point out and improve your weak areas.

Further another advantage of taking many mocks is to build up your stamina. Apart from the GMATPREP tests, taking practise tests of any major GMATPREP company ought to do that.

I would also encourage you to purchase the latest version of OG and the verbal review for some great additional practice. Here is a link that will help you with your decision.

Lastly, you can check out a very interesting article by Mike McGarry from Magoosh detailing a 3 month study plan

https://magoosh.com/gmat/2012/3-month-g ... -students/. You will find it very helpful as it gives out a study plan as per your needs.

Hope this helps. All the best.

Hi anuragp,

Since it sounds like you're just beginning your studies, then it would be a good idea to take a FULL-LENGTH practice CAT Test; you can take 2 for free at www.mba.com (and they come with some additional practice materials). If you want to do a little studying first, so that you can familiarize yourself with the basic content and question types, then that's okay - but you shouldn't wait too long to take that initial CAT. That score will give us a good sense of your natural strengths and weaknesses and will help provide a basis for comparison as you continue to study. A FULL CAT takes about 3.5 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take it in one sitting. Once you have those scores, you should report back here and we can come up with a study plan.

I'd like to know a bit more about your timeline and goals:
1) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
2) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
3) What Schools are you planning to apply to?

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

Hi MrJglass,

If one is working full time, than around 2-3 hours a day and 5-6 hours on weekends. If however you are studying full time, than around 3 months for 5-6 hours a day should suffice.

Hey anuragp,
Congratulation for deciding to take the GMAT journey.

To start with, first you need to have a basic idea about the present level of knowledge to map it to your target score. You can give the diagnostic test a try to assess the present level and then use the GMAT Planner Tool to set up your target test score.
    • This tool can provide you a recommended GMAT plan as per your present proficiency level and your target test score.

Now, with a 3-months preparation time, it is definitely possible to get a score of 700+. GMAT comes with a structured well-defined curriculum for the testing purpose, hence one can prepare for GMAT with a 120 to 200 hours of time investment. As a thumb rule, one needs to allocate 10 hours for every 10 points’ improvement.

If you are looking for an 85+ percentile in both quant and verbal, you can follow a module-wise learn and refine strategy.
    • Learn the concepts of every section in a time-limit.
      o The most important step, which will help you to build the foundation. You can try the GMAT Strategy Session to have an idea about the way things can be done.
    • Once the concept learning is done, check the applicability of those concepts in the quizzes, mocks or advanced testing platforms like GMAT Prep.
      o You can try different platforms like Scholaranium and different Ability Quizzes to test your learning.
    • Start taking full length mocks once you are done with all the modules of quant and verbal.
      o Try the GMAT Prep Mocks to have an idea about the applications of your learning.

If you stick to the above plan, with proper execution, you can definitely achieve and surpass your target score in the GMAT. Also, you can now choose the order at which you will take the section, so in the preparation also take the sections as per your convenience. However, it is a good idea not to stop any of sections totally while preparing for the other section.

As I said earlier, there are many other students who successfully achieved their target score and surpassed that. Read some of those stories:

• Rhea - journey from 620 (Q45, V31) to 760 (Q50, V41)
• Ishan scored a Q50. Learn how he leveraged the step by step approach taught in the Quant live sessions to achieve this
• Abhijeet scored a 740 in his first attempt and secured an admit in MIT Sloan. Focus and consistent study are key to his success.

For any query related to the preparation, feel free to write us back – we will be happy to help.

Gents,

Need some guidance here.

I have 2 months left to give my exam before I shift locations because of my job.I have prior to this attended some group classes in an institute nearby and have given one mock exam and score 580.I am a full time working professional so time is luxury, but I am ready to give it all in the time I have.
Is there a short term plan, one where I do not take a hit on quality, which I can follow.
What practice tests do you suggests and any particular routine.
I am fond of Maths so I know I can cover there, however I lack in verbal.

Appreciate any guidance.

Regards

Hi abhaykinra,

You will likely receive more of a response if you start your own post-thread (instead of piggy-backing on this one). The more information that you can provide about your studies, timeline and goals, the easier it will be to get advice. If you'd prefer to have a private chat, then you can also feel free to reach out to me directly (through PM or email).

Gents,

Need some guidance here.

I have 2 months left to give my exam before I shift locations because of my job.I have prior to this attended some group classes in an institute nearby and have given one mock exam and score 580.I am a full time working professional so time is luxury, but I am ready to give it all in the time I have.
Is there a short term plan, one where I do not take a hit on quality, which I can follow.
What practice tests do you suggests and any particular routine.
I am fond of Maths so I know I can cover there, however I lack in verbal.

Appreciate any guidance.

Regards

Hey abhaykinra,
Let me start by stating the fact that with some amount of basic knowledge, 2 months should be sufficient enough to have a solid level of preparation. However, you must not do it randomly and possess a definite plan to pursue. Some important points to be noted:
    • 580 in the first mock is a decent score to start with, but I would suggest having a definite target score in mind. With that, you will have a fair idea about your requirement in the original examination. Use the GMAT Planner Tool for the same purpose.
    • Depending on the amount of time you can put daily, you need to plan the preparation of the modules. Ideally, as a thumb rule, an increase of 10-point score requires 10 hours of preparation.


Now, as I mentioned earlier, you can take a Learn-Refine-Apply approach to have the maximum effectiveness of your learning. In short, the approach is:
    • Take one specific module at a time. Learn the concepts of that topic in details.
    • Now, refine your knowledge or learning from the concepts by solving practice quizzes and sectional tests.
    • Finally, if you have successfully completed the practice resources, try your understanding in the full-length mocks.

Some important resources you can use:
