Hi I was thinking of buying a GMAT on demand course from one of the big GMAT Prep Companies. The cost would be something like $700-1200 I guess.

Please advise should I wait for the christmas sale as I'm extremely tight on cash? Is Christmas a really big event that the GMAT Prep companies would definitely put up their courses on sale or it ain't worth waiting till the christmas day? Thanks a lot

That's quite a bit of money for an on-demand course. Only MGMAT or Economist are really that expensive and for $1,200 you can get an in-person course (though those have their own weaknesses and not necessarily best for everyone).

I would say instead of getting that expensive on demand course, look into other options such as Live Online course (you would at least get more support from an instructor and a more or less rigid structure/schedule that would push you to cover the material). You would also have some classmates to help push you and to encourage.

bb thanks a lot for the advice..Actually I was after the guarantee and quality prep material that the big cos like economist gmat provide..Well known cos usually provide quality material to practice on. The less expensive cos also provide guarantee but lack quality prep material (I have seen this). Of course even the most expensive ones do not match the Offical GMAT questions in quality but still they are very good substitutes.
