Hi friends , how is it going .
My preparation had been a little inconsistent in past 2 weeks as i was very busy attending Job related chores and stuff . My apologies for not posting in the last week .I hope your GMAT preparation is going smoothly .
I fully agree with all those who think that preparing for exams like GMAT , GRE, CAT is much more better and economical online than joining a coaching institute.Those coaching institutes like IMS, Career launcher and allare just a big show off.The best place to study is the net . You can get all the resources ( I mean everything that you can ever want ) for free which the so called 'coaching institutes' will give you in return for a small fortune.
oke i think all of you got the point that online preparation is all goody goody but you will need to have some good physical books also to help start and get along with your preparation.Online reading and understanding is one thing but nothing can beat the old fashioned way of sitting down with a good book in hand and geting through and applying your brain in the process.
Its time now we get to buisness and get ourselves some good and trusted study material for our preparation.I have done some research on this and i have made up a short list of books that are very well acknowledged and trusted and you can start your preparation with them.
