ESSENTIALS YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT GMAT -2

So after discussing various sections of this four and a half hour exam That was developed in 1953 by a comman banch of 9 Business schools with the goal of finding a standardised base to provide B.schools with quality applicants, which is now taken more than 250 thousand times annually and that sucks the hell out of your brain and practically leaving not a single second of relaxation - coz more harder answer you gave, harder the question become that gona be shooted at you (though the credit that question carry increases with the hardness). This happens due to the fact that GMAT follows computer adaptive testing (CAT).
I would like to remind you that you can Score MAXIMUM - 800 MARKS ( which depands on the actual score computation).
But the actual score you get is categorised in the following format:
-overall score : ranging 200 - 800
-math score : ranging 0 - 60
-verbal score: ranging 0 - 60
-Analytical Writing Assessment(AWA)score: ranging 0 - 6

THE THREE MOST COMMANLY ASKED QUESTION ABOUT GMAT SCORE THAT I FACED IN LAST 2-3 YEARS IS:
1)when the score for gmat is valid for 5 years in a row, why business schools preffer sometimes lower score to higher one?
-so the answer is as simple as a cup of tea.
Percentile is the thing that counts- a particular year's question bank could be harder in comparison to another. so percentile is the thing that provides B.schools clearest picture.

2)HOW TO REGISTER FOR THE GMAT TEST?
-This can be done online by going to the official site of Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC). The seat availability can change quickly. If you are sure about the date and if it's available, you should register immediately. You would need to pay the required fee of US$250 by credit card.
If you are an international applicant and do not wish to pay by credit card, you can register at the Regional Registration Centers (RRC) of GMAC in your area for gmat.

3)WHAT'S THE MINIMUM ACCEPTED SCORE?
-This is the question that i feel toughest to answer. The reason is possiblity to overcome a low test score with impressive real world accomplishments, good undergraduate performance, etc.

Moreover most B.schools do not publish a minimum acceptable GMAT score or detailed statistics about the scores achieved by applicants. However, schools do generally publish the average and median score of their latest intake, which can be used as a guide. At nearly all of the top business schools that are commonly listed in popular magazines and ranking services, the GMAT scores will average in the upper 600s or low 700s.

-The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania : commonly regarded as one of the top business schools in the US, reports an average GMAT score of 713
-Harvard Business School: another top U.S. business school, reports a 2006 average of 707.
-Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management: an average GMAT of 700, with approximately 75 percent of enrolled students scoring between 650 and 740.

ESSENTIALS YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT GMAT

In the last post we discussed how to start preparing for gmat, but after posting regarding start up stage, i am getting questions like -
-what exactly gmat is?
-what are different sections of gmat?
So we decided to make a post containing all the info, to facilitate readers by providing all info at one place.

SO HERE WE START:-

GMAT is a test of general skills and knowledge on the basis of verbal, mathematical and writting skills but is more focused to test your ability and adaptability under max pressure. But getting in to detail -

-WHAT GMAT STANDS FOR?
GRADUATE MANAGEMENT ADMISSION TEST is what GMAT stands for.

-WHAT'S THE FORMATTING AND TIMING?
GMAT format can be divided in to three main sections-
1) Analytical Writting Assessment
2) Quantitative Section
3) Verbal Section

AND AS FAR AS TIMING IS CONCERNED, HAVE A LOOK AT THIS TABLE:

Now the question arises what are these 3 catergories all about?

1) Analytical Writting Assessment(AWA):- AWA of the GMAT is designed as a direct measure of your ability to think critically and to communicate your ideas properly. The AWA consists of two writing tasks—Analysis of an Issue and Analysis of an Argument, based on general interest related on various subjects.

-Analysis of an Issue
For the Analysis of an Issue section, you will need to analyze the issue presented and explain your point of view on the subject. There is no correct answer. Instead, you should consider various perspectives. Use relevant reasons or examples drawn from your experience, observations, or reading to develop your own position on the issue.
The Analysis of an Issue is focused to test your ability to explore the complexities of an issue or opinion and, if appropriate, to take a position that is informed by your understanding.

-Analysis of an Argument
For the Analysis of an Argument section, you will need to analyze the reasoning behind a given argument and write a critique of that argument. You are not being asked to present your own views on the subject.
So you shall always consider the following when developing your essay:
-What questionable assumptions underlie the thinking behind the argument?
-What alternative explanations or counter-examples might weaken the conclusion?
-What sort of evidence could help strengthen or refute the argument?(whatever is your supporting point)
The Analysis of an Argument targets to test your ability to formulate an appropriate and constructive critique of a specific conclusion based on a specific line of thinking.

2) Quantitative Section:- This section of the GMAT measures the ability of quantitative reasoning, solving quantitative problems, and interpreting graphic/tabular/diagramatic data. Two types of multiple-choice questions usually asked under this section are -
Problem Solving and Data Sufficiency.

Problem-Solving and Data-Sufficiency questions are intermingled throughout the section. Both types of questions require knowledge of:
-advanced arithmetic,
-elementary algebra
-commonly known concepts of geometry.

though Problem-Solving Questions are particularly designed to test:
-basic mathematical skills,understanding of elementary mathematical concepts, and the ability to reason quantitatively and solve quantitative problems.

ON THE OTHER HAND, Data-Sufficiency Questions are focused to measure your ability to:
-analyze a quantitative problem,
-recognize which information is relevant,
-determine at what point there is sufficient information to solve a problem.
Data-Sufficiency questions are accompanied by some initial information and two statements, labeled (1) and (2). You must decide whether the statements given offer enough data to enable you to answer the question. You must choose one of the following answers:
(a)Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) is not sufficient.
(b)Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) is not sufficient.
(c)BOTH TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER suffcient ALONE.
(d)EACH statement ALONE is sufficient.
(e)Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.

3) Verbal Section:-The Verbal section of the GMAT measures your ability to read and comprehend written material, reason and evaluate arguments, and correct written material to conform to standard written English.

Three types of multiple-choice questions are used in the Verbal section of the GMAT exam -Reading Comprehension, Critical Reasoning, and Sentence Correction.

-Reading Comprehension Questions are up to 350 words long on topics,generally, from the social sciences, physical or biological sciences, and business-related areas like: marketing, economics, human resource management.
And because this section of the GMAT exam includes passages from several different content areas,you may have no specific knowledge of the material.
Reading Comprehension passages are accompanied by interpretive, applied, and inferential questions.All questions are to be answered on the basis of what is stated or implied in the reading passage. Which are asked to measure your
-ability to understand, analyze, and apply information
-Understanding words and statements in reading passages(ability to comprehend terms used in the passage and your understanding of the English language).

-Critical Reasoning Questions are designed to test the reasoning skills involved in making arguments, evaluating arguments, and formulating or evaluating a plan of action. Questions are based on materials from a variety of sources. No familiarity with the specific subject matter is needed.
This section measures your ability to reason effectively in three areas:
-Argument construction: Questions of this type may ask you to recognize the basic structure of an argument, properly drawn conclusions, underlying assumptions, well-supported explanatory hypotheses, or parallels between structurally similar arguments.
-Argument evaluation: Questions of this type may ask you to analyze a given argument, recognize factors that would strengthen or weaken an argument, reasoning errors committed in making an argument, or aspects of the methods by which an argument proceeds.
-Formulating and evaluating a plan of action: Questions of this type may ask you to recognize the relative appropriateness, effectiveness, or efficiency of different plans of action; factors that would strengthen or weaken a proposed plan of action; or assumptions underlying a proposed plan of action.

-Sentence Correction Questions ask you which of the five choices best expresses an idea or relationship. The questions will require you to be familiar with the stylistic conventions and grammatical rules of standard written English. You must also demonstrate your ability to improve incorrect or ineffective expressions.

This section tests two broad aspects of language proficiency:
-Correct expression: A correct sentence is grammatically and structurally sound and conforms to all the rules of standard written English. A correct sentence will not have dangling, misplaced, or improperly formed modifiers, unidiomatic or inconsistent expressions, or faults in parallel construction.
-Effective expression: An effective sentence expresses an idea or relationship clearly and concisely, as well as grammatically. This does not mean that the choice with the fewest and simplest words is necessarily the best answer but only means that there are no superfluous words or needlessly complicated expressions in the best choice. In evaluating the diction of a sentence, you must be able to recognize whether the words are well chosen, accurate, and suitable for the context.

HOW TO APPROACH GMAT

YOU MAY HAVE SEEN MANY COMMENTS IN COMMENTS SECTION OR IN SHOUTBOX ABOUT HOW TO START TRACKING THE MOUNTAIN CALLED GMAT.
Many of us know a lot and some of us know nothing and most of us were in most dangerous condition of knowing something that may or may not be correct.
We, gmatcracked team, keep on keeping the questions about how to start with gmat thing and what we, gaurav and kunal, used to answer them is not to think much and limit themselves to the knowledge that gmat is nothing morethan a test which you are required to qualify to get your ass into a good mba college and to get there you should start working on the one point program which says
- give a practice test to have an idea where you actually stand
- than read general material available on net and also here (like acro gmat, gmat 2003 to 2008 series etc.)
-than try your luck again with a full length test and try to figure out specific areas where you are trailing. ex: quant or verbal or reading comprehension etc.
-than give yourself opportunity to workout on that particular area with books like ( ds-1000, ps-1000, sc-1000 etc.)
-than you can get littile more expertice and exposure with high end material like (og-10, og-11, kaplan, manhattan books etc.)

But i used to wonder all the time is how to provide you proper info about gmat and i started searching in regard (ITS NOT LIKE I DIDNT FIND ANYTHING BUT WHAT I USED TO GET AS MY SEARCH RESULTS IS THE INFO THAT IS USEFUL BUT MISLEADING IN SOME OR THE OTHER SORT.) and the other thing that put kunal and me to have hour discussions is there no file that could actually help our readers (specially new ones) to get a concrete base.
All info in one cake to start with the proper knowledge base, leaving no chance for them to be misguided by anyone.

here we bring you the book that we found hugely benifical for you ;)

Gmat-secrets- guide

in this ebook you will find all the info that you may require to create a clear picture in your mind about gmat and to decide a path on which you may want to move to get the target.
this book is so much advised is not cause its informative but it covers both aspects
-knowledge base like other books
-the secret that everyone knows but no one follows.

so a must suggested book by gmatcraked.blogspot.com
regards
-gaurav and kunal

Hi friends
How is the preperation going on...
I hope it's going as planned.I will be providing you with some cool resources that will be helpful in your preperation, in near coming posts but now for some useful information.
I was just surfing the Gmat websites when i found these cool forums of MBA where a lot of MBA aspirants come toghter and discuss amongst themselves various issues , very healthy interaction takes place and it very informative also. Many of these are past Gmat takers and many are ones who will be taking the same in near future. These forums can be a great advantge for any student going for Gmat specially if its your first try at the exam.
I have also learnt many important pieces of information from these forums and have also taken some of the resources from these forums.
I highly recommend you to join these forums . All your queries can be solved their, though You can ask me as well whenever you have any ( any question even if its not Gmat related hehe) Question.
If any of you want to join these forum ( which i highly recommend) just contact me or leave a comment and i will give you the links of some of the very best forums. If you will tell me from where you belong i can also give specific forums for MBA aspirants of that specific region, like if you are in india- mumbai i can give seperate link of mumbai MBA forum communities and so on..
Oknow i will end this post now but remember to keep practicing as practice makes a man perfect.

Reading Comprehension

hi friends

today we will continue with our verbal portion practice.
We will practice reading comprehension and look for the best methods to go about solving the reading comprehension , we will also be looking at some of the tips and tricks for solving the reading comprehension.

What is a reading coprehension

GMAT reading comprehension questions are meant to test your understanding of the implications, meanings, and structures presented in the passages. You can expect to see 2 to 4 passages of 200 to 400 words each, in the verbal section of the GMAT exam. Each passage will be followed by 4 questions. Because the GMAT is now a computer-adaptive test, you will only see 1 question at a time. The passage, however, will remain on your computer screen until you have answered all of the questions related to it.

There is a certain patterm that has been seen since the reafing comprehensions started coming in the MAT exams.This pattern shows us that RC's can be classified into 3 broad groups.You will get a passage in the exma from within these 3 groups.

1.Science - If the passage is from science group its most likely to talk about subjects like biology , chemistry , physics . These type of passages are very factual. You should to an initial skimming ( fats reading) of the passage and take note of any factual information given. These types of passages can be boring but they are simple and factual and therefore are relatively easyto do.

2.Social science - Typically, these passages deal with topics such as history, politics, and geography. These are enjoyable to read but the questions they pose can be a little dauting.Read carefully these passages and answer according to questions.You must read these passages slowly in order to answer the many inference questions they are sure to present.

3.Buisness - Business passages involve very difficult structures, and present questions that require you to infer information and even to determine the authors' moods and opinions. They need to be read slowly and carefully.

Tips and tricks

• Use your scrap paper - Use your scrap paper to make very brief notes on the main ideas of each paragraph. This will be very useful as in computer based test these days you can do it on screen.
  
• Read the first question before the you read the passage - As the exams these days are on computer you will only see 1 question of the passage , but be sure to read that before starting the passage .
  
• Identify the type of passage you are reading - Identify the passage that has come in the exam and see which of the 3 categories i explained above it falls in , and go about it in that stratergy .
  
• Practice is the key - Nothing can beat the hardcore practice . The best way is to read as much u can before when preparing for the MAT and learn the various reading techniques.
  

Sentence correction

GMAT sentence correction questions are designed to test the ability to identify the understanding power of not just written English (that is grammatically-correct) but also so the situations that are ambiguous in any sort. Each question has sentences, parts of which have been underlined. You will then be presented with 5 different answer choices presenting alternative ways of stating the underlined portion of the text. One answer choice will repeat the text without any changes (meaning that the sentence is clear in meaning and grammatically correct as written). The other choices will re-write the text, sometimes in subtle ways.

The correct answer will have all of the following 4 characteristics:

1. No grammatical mistakes
2. Correct sentence structure
3. No diction errors
4. No changes to the sentence's intended meaning

Note: This is not stating that the correct answer is always the most concise one though often this is the case, but does not always hold true. You may find that you need to resist the temptation to always select the shortest answer choice.

GMAT Sentence Correction Tips and Strategies:

Do not waste time on a close reading of answer choice A:

Its a human nature to focus too much on the very first thing and being the first option Choice A is focused the most and generally it (Choice A) repeats the wording of the underscored section. Keep in mind, however, that we are not saying to ignore choice A entirely. It will be correct approximately one fifth of the time. This is just to save time and redundancy as the choice A very rarely is the correct answer but nonetheless it should not be ignored.

so keep in mind while attemping the question to read all the options with equal interest and speed.

Look out for multiple errors. :

A sentence might contain more than one error. A common fallacy that test-takers fall into is to find one error and then quickly choose the answer that corrects that mistake, without considering whether there are other errors in the sentence that an alternative answer choice might also address. The correct answer must correct all of the errors in the underlined text.

Actually this is the same problem as we have discussed for the choice A that we focus too much on what we see first and this leads to avoidance of others.

so keep in mind to have a detailed reading and equal time spreading over each and every option and error.

Employ process of elimination wherever possible:

The easiest way to use process of elimination in sentence correction questions is simply to eliminate any answer choices that are themselves grammatically incorrect. You can also eliminate any choices that alter the intended meaning of the sentence. If you are still unsure about how to answer a question even after narrowing your choices down to two, you will fare better by selecting the more concise of the remaining answer choices – provided that it does not use the passive voice.

this is the place where you can depend on your first thing you focus means if you see any error, you can simply eliminate that particular option and can move on.

Do not worry about spelling or capitalization errors:

The test writers don't get tested for these 2 errors.

When in doubt, look for subtle differences among the different answer choices:

Examining how answer choices differ from one another can also be a good way to determine what errors might be present in the underlined text. This technique can also help you fight the tendency to read so carefully for meaning that you overlook grammatical mistakes.

Read the entire sentence a second time, inserting your selected answer choice:

We have found this to be a very powerful tip for dealing with sentence correction questions. It can keep you from making careless mistakes that would harm your GMAT score.

Trust your ears:

If you get stuck, 'say' the choices in your head and then select the passage that sounds best to your ears. Most test takers, particularly native English speakers, have internalized many more grammar rules than they can explicitly identify.

Grammar Concepts and Rules one should know:

There is no enough time and space to to review the material tested by the GMAT sentence correction section here. However, I have have compiled the following "short list" of grammatical rules that the writers particularly like to test. You are strongly encouraged to memorize this list of grammar concepts and rules, and to refresh your knowledge of them, before you sit for the GMAT..

• 'Among' versus 'between'
• Elliptical verb phrases
• Misplaced modifiers
• Parallel sentences
• Pronoun-subject agreement
• Proper use of adverbs (they modify verbs)
• Proper use of the semicolon
• 'Fewer' versus 'less'
• Run-on sentences
• Sentence fragments
• Subject-verb agreement
• Verb tenses
• 'Who' versus 'whom'

In further posts I will be releasing out free Gmat test material that will be a boost to all the reader of my blog. The resources that I will be giving away to my readers will have the full grammar concepts and rules, which cannot be explained appropriately in post format.

Hi friends..

So now that all of you have read the tips on how to approach the reasoning questions let us try and do one simple example.
This example is of medium level and in the final exam the level of questions will be higher so be prepared and do the critical reasoning part practice thouroughly and carefully as this part is the one in which students most often make elementary mistakes due to time constraints and other pressures.


Example question

Some of our federal legislators are opposed to government endowments or other financial support for photography as an art form on the basis that much of modern photography portrays nudity and is thus obscene. These legislators are mistaken, however, since even they would agree that Michelangelo’s works of art, most of which depict nudity, are not obscene.

Which of the following statements, if true, would most seriously weaken the argument above?

• The artistic level of the works of the vast majority of modern photographers does not approach that of Michelangelo's works.
• Many modern photographic works of art have been displayed in museums alongside Michelangelo's works.
• The majority of Michelangelo's work was not funded or otherwise supported by the government.
• What these legislators consider to be obscene does not coincide with what the general citizenry views as obscene.
• The works of Michelangelo that portray nudity are considered not obscene due to their relatively high artistic value.

The author of the passage attempts to refute the legislators' argument by reasoning essentially as follows:

Premise: Michelangelo's works portray nudity.

Premise: Michelangelo's works are not considered obscene.

Intermediate Conclusion: A work of art that portrays nudity is not necessarily obscene.

Final Conclusion: The legislators are mistaken about why they should not provide funding for photographic art that portrays nudity.

The first answer choice (we'll call it "A") is the second-best answer among the five choices. (A) Suggests a possible explanation why modern photographers' works portraying nudity might be considered obscene while Michelangelo's works portraying nudity would not. But a better response would go further—to explain how artistic value affects whether an artwork is considered obscene. Thus, while (A) tends to weaken the argument, you should look for another answer choice that refutes the argument's unstated assumption more directly.

The second answer choice (we'll call it "B") actually strengthens (supports) the argument, rather than weakening it. (B) Provides some evidence, albeit weak, that Michelangelo's works are relevantly similar to those of modern photographers.

The third answer choice (we'll call it "C") is irrelevant to the argument, which relies on a logical connection between nudity and obscenity, not on any logical connection between federal funding and obscenity

The fourth answer choice (we'll call it "D")fails to provide enough information to either weaken or support the argument. More specifically, (D) does not indicate how the general citizenry's view as to what is obscene compares with that of the legislators. Without this information, (D) accomplishes nothing toward either weakening or supporting the argument.

The fifth answer choice (we'll call it "E")is the best one. (E) directly refutes the unstated assumption that Michelangelo's works and those of modern photographers are similar in all respects relevant to the argument—by stating explicitly that Michelangelo's works are considered not obscene because of their relatively high artistic value.

2. CRITICAL REASONING

NUMBER OF QUESTIONS: 14-15

TEST SECTION: In the 75-Minute Verbal Ability section, interspersed with Reading Comprehension and Sentence Correction questions

FORMAT: Multiple-choice (you select one of 5 choices by clicking on an oval)

SKILLS TESTED: Your ability to understand, criticize, and draw reasonable conclusions from arguments.

Before trying out some example questions and how to solve them read the tips on how to go about solving the critical reasoning part.

Important tips on critical reasoning questions

• always read the question stem first (before reading the passage). It will contain useful clues about what to look for and think about as you read the passage.

• that ask you to identify an assumption and those that ask you to find the choice that most weakens the argument, your task is to determine what must be assumed in order for the argument's conclusion to be reasonably inferable. In the latter type of question, your second task is to find the statement among the answer choices that refutes that assumption.

• if the passage confuses you, try identifying the argument's conclusion (often signaled by terms such as "as a result," "consequently," and "therefore") and its premises—evidence that is given as factual (often signaled by terms such as "because," "since," and "given that.") The passages do not always present the components of an argument in the most coherent sequence. Reasoning linearly from premises to conclusion can help you make sense of it all.

• In any question that asks which answer choice most effectively either weakens or strengthens the argument, you can be certain that one or two of the answer choices will go the wrong way—by accomplishing just the opposite of what the question asks for. Be on the lookout for them; it's remarkably easy to become confused and go for this type of answer choice under time pressure and during a momentary lapse of concentration.

• many passages contain superfluous statements, which are irrelevant to the argument and shouldn't come into play at all in responding to the question at hand. Don't be thrown by these red herrings; separate them out from the important logical features of the argument.

Tackling the verbal portion

The verbal portion of the GMAT consists of three types of questions: Reading Comprehension, Arguments, and Sentence Correction. They are designed to test your ability to reason using the written word. There is roughly the same number of each type of question, for a total of 41 questions.




1. GMAT READING COMPREHENSION



FORMAT:

The GMAT reading comprehension section passages are about 200 to 400 words long. The subject matter of a passage can be almost anything, but the most common themes are politics, history, culture, science, and business.


READING METHODS

There are many methods explained in Gmat books to go about the reading of the comprehension passages. The most common ones are skimming or speed reading of the passage.
According to me this is not a very good idea, the reason being in speed reading the reader is just skimming through the passage and collecting only the most important information from that passage and leaves the other information as it is without recollecting then in their minds.
In reality the speed reading technique of passages is based for those written materials that are non technical in nature which is not the case in Gmat exam reading comprehension passages. The passages you get in reading comprehension are very detailed and demands close scrutiny from the reader. Therefore the technique of speed working may not work in the Gmat reading comprehension.
Another technique that is prevalent for tackling these passages is reading the questions first. This technique can backfire also as questions are themselves sometimes are a paragraph long and reading the question twice or maybe thrice will take away your precious time.
Even after you read the question 2-3 times you maybe clueless as to what its exact reference is to the main passage , this technique is a form of gamble and taking such a big risks in your exam is not a wise idea .
The technique that can be used for tackling the reading comprehension is reading the first two sentences of each paragraph. The topic of the paragraph is explained in the first few sentences. Reading the first sentence of each paragraph will give an overview of the passage. The topic sentences act in essence as a summary of the passage. Furthermore, since each passage is only three or four paragraphs long, previewing the topic sentences will not use up an inordinate amount of time.
I will be giving more detailed information on how to tackle the reading comprehension in later posts as this is an important part of the exam. Illustrations will also be provided for interactive and easy understanding.

HI friends. When I came to a crossroads in my career, I realized that my experience could only take me so far without further enhancing my education. Since my primary ambition was to go into an executive management position, I knew that an MBA was the right course. Most MBA programs require you to take the GMAT.

Like most students, I was intimidated by the test, so I sought to educate myself on the best course when preparing for the GMAT. I have created this blog to help other students as they begin this new career journey

Lets start with our preperation with the basic contents of the Gmat exam :

• Analytical Writing section - designed to test your ability to discern data and information in the technical context of modern business



• Quantitative section - designed to tests your ability to handle complex mathematical and analytical operations key to today’s fast-paced business environment.


• Verbal Section - that tests your general ability to process written information.

1.Analytical writing section -

In this section, you will be assigned two topics, the Analysis of Issue and the Analysis of Argument. You will have 30 minutes for each of them. There is no break between them. Writing the two essays in a short span of 30 minutes each can be a daunting exercise. In my blog in further posts i will tell clealry the metods to do this section and the procedure of how to go about doing this section of the exam.

2. Quantitative section -

This section includes complicated mathamatical problems. The main heads in this topic are - Arithmetic , Algebra,Word problem,Data Sufficiency. The subheads and how to cover them i will discuss in later posts.

3. Verbal section -

This section of the Gmat exam contains Reading Comprehension, Critical reasoning andSentence correction

I have given the basic heads that are covered in the Gmat . In further posts i will be telling and explaining my readers with the help of many simple tests and resuorces that i will be providing how to go about and sucessfully doing your Gmat exam.
