GMAT Preparation

I have seen people being 35 and still cracking GMAT to get into Stanford GSB. And you are just 18. Look for your current career prospectives. Complete your graduation with a good percentage. Build your resume am enough to stand out and to note building resumes means not just anything but things such sun help you to stand in a clear apart and would help highlighting the same in your profile. Then try to analyse why are you willing to give GMAT. The ifs and buts to follow. And for MBA in Harvard alike you need to have a minimum work experience of about 5yrs+. So you have got a lot of time in hand. Preparation hardly takes 6 months if you are dedicated enough. So time won't be a factor for you. Stay focused and stay blessed. Keep on questioning all your doubts and we will be happy to help.
Cheers mate and all the best.

Some reference books are not enough, if you're studying for MAT or GMAT especially on your own that is. Firstly, if you're studying on your own, make sure that you spend at least 6 hours a day with at least 4-6 months of determined attention towards your studies. Secondly, there are a lot of YouTube tutorials on the Internet that'll help you do the right kind of preparation and keeping the schedule. Finally, coaching for these exams separately or altogether will cost you a lot, so keep that in mind and fuel that as your passion. If you can study this way, you can make a difference. So don't just go by some reference book by the market. There are hundreds of books, plan your schedule properly and use technology along with your studies. Good luck and all the best for your future endeavours.
