I am preparing for GMAT test these days .
 
# If you are ordinary talent then take help of a coaching center.

# If you are extra ordinary talent then solve test papers by yourself and discuss with your friends.
 
do a lot of quantitative aptitude and analytical reasoning
enroll for online tests
 
Do not prepare, forget about the test and even what kinds of questions it asks you. Make it a complete surprise. And rest easy.

This is not guaranteed to work though. Still I've known 1 person who've done this and topped the GMAT.
 
If you write hints on your hand don't wipe your forehead if there is sweat ...:flame:
 
You probably know these already, regarding test taking tactics themselves. Practice these while you are taking prep tests:

- go through and do not get stuck on a question: come back to the difficult ones;

- as usual, guess only when you are down to two possibilities (most of the time - in some cases even three answers are acceptable because you may not, God forbid, be doing well on that particular section);

- once a section is over: FORGET IT, CHUCK IT OUT OF YOUR MIND DO NOT PONDER ON ANY POSSIBLE MISTAKES YOU MAY HAVE MADE: remember that in instantaneous decision making situations, you need your full "instant" brain capacity focused on the question at hand rather than having a part of that capacity focused on some question on a previous section;

-NEVER lose confidence AT ANY TIME during the test - it will help you focus;

I am sure you will do fine: MAKE SURE THAT YOU PUT IN YOUR BEST and leave the rest to God (but you already knew that).

I think GMAT is designed to judge intelligence,analytic skills, quantative skills and above all job experience and your level of confidence.

Dude; trust me --- take the Kaplan course.

I still have my pocket guide to GMAT (with all mathematical rules, formulas, and advice for verbal section)

PM me --- i'll have it sent to you, I have no use for it
 
woops nm, didnt realize u already took it


570 is a pretty decent score. Most respectable schools hope for at least 550-600. How did you do on the writing section?

I ended up with a 5.0 when i took it a little while back

Yes 570 is acceptable score for all top MBA schools in Canada.

I shall get my final report after three weeks,I hoped writing score will also be in same score range.
 
Prometric administers the test in North America (i assume thats where you are).

Give them 2-3 weeks for them to send the full results.

Best of luck brother. Make your home country proud.

May I ask where you are applying? And for what concentration?
