Creating multiple login IDs and booking multiple GMAT slots can lead to disqualification of the applicant for appearing for any GMAT exam in the future.

You can book the GMAT online exam appointment up to 6 months before the GMAT test date. It is always best to book the GMAT in advance. Candidates are provided the GMAT online appointments on a rolling 6-month basis. Make sure that you have a plan in place before you opt for the GMAT slot booking. By plan, we are referring to your GMAT preparation and your MBA application. Do not keep your GMAT exam preparation and application documents for the last minute. It is best to prepare proactively and well in advance. Hence, you must book your GMAT slot accordingly.

650 - 690 is a good score, however, if you score above 700 then it is great and it also enhances your chances of securing admission to a top B-school. However, a good GMAT score is not the only criterion for securing admission to a top MBA college. Students need to build a holistic profile that should have a decent balance of work experience, academic excellence, extracurricular activities, etc. Nonetheless, a good GMAT score will definitely help you in improving your candidature. Make sure to cover every aspect of the GMAT syllabus with the correct resources.

Usually, anything above 700 is considered a good GMAT score. With consistency, one can score 700+ on the GMAT. With a proper study plan, one should also practice mock tests and have a grip on the fundamentals. You should start by understanding the GMAT exam syllabus and pattern. Then, you must select the correct GMAT books and resources. Do not buy too many books else, you will be confused. Once you have completed the GMAT official guide and other official material, you can refer to Manhattan guides. You must give full-length mock tests every week to gauge your performance.

GMAT exam tests different skill sets like the ability to think critically, the ability to analyse data, and draw conclusions using reasoning skills. According to an estimate, only 5-6% of candidates are able to score more than 720+. So, one needs to develop these skills to get a decent score in order to get admission to their dream B-school. Students must look at the GMAT from the perspective of B-schools. GMAT is only testing those quantitative and verbal reasoning skills that are required by a student to survive a B-school curriculum. It is not a test of management, but of general reasoning skills.
