Prepare to meet the challenges of the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT®) with focus on content areas covered in the exam. Review includes: data sufficiency, quantitative problem solving, reading comprehension, issue and argument essays, sentence correction, and critical reasoning.
In general, the more you practice before taking the exam, the better. We suggest starting now. GMATPrep test preparation software for the computer-adaptive GMAT exam can be downloaded free from the official GMAT site, www.mba.com. The software is based on the same technology used by the official GMAT exam, simulating the test experience, although in shorter form than the actual test. It features: a 15-question practice section for each type of GMAT question, with answers and explanations for each question; accurate computing of verbal and quantitative scores; a math review; and real-time scoring. GMAC`s The Official Guide for GMAT Review, containing numerous practice test questions, can also be purchased from www.mba.com. Additional free tutorials and practice test questions can be found at www.gmattestquestions.com, www.gmatexampracticetests.com, and www.testprepreview.com.
We recommend taking a timed post-test on your own the week after the course ends. Comparison of your scores identifies the progress you have made and areas for continued practice before the actual GMAT.
