Experience during the program

Olin has a great MBA program and it has really pushed me to develop as a business professional. The small class size let's you have the individual attention from both professors and career advisers. Olin selects those candidates that are high on collaboration which is reflected in the peer interaction and team work. The curriculum has been very carefully designed to suit both people who want to specialize in certain fields as well as to those who want to pick and choose what they want to gain from an MBA. The only thing which is sort of a disadvantage for Olin students is the school's location: St. Louis. If you want to get into the tech industry then go to the east coast, if you want to get into finance go to the west coast. Olin falls in the middle and is neither here or there. But still Olin has a phenomenal placement rate of 97%.

I took the GMAT on 19th August and scored a 710 on my first attempt. Hence I would like to thank e-GMAT for the valuable support. I took the e-GMAT verbal online course and also attended most of the highly attended free online sessions. The instruction style at e-GMAT is perfectly suited for people who want to prepare at their own pace and convenience. The quizzes before each module helped me gauge my current skill level and the final quiz after the module demonstrated a clear and tangible improvement. I feel that this course is ideal for people like me who are non-native English speakers.
