A bit different than some of the other blogs on this forum, GMATmastery.com is not a daily log of my studies for the test. Rather, its a reflection on the tools and techinques that I used to get a 760 on the GMAT. I'm a student at Columbia Business School now, and thought I would create this quick site to share a few of my insights regarding the admissions test.

My main strategy was to seek resources outside the Kaplan and Princeton Review guides. I really emphasized the verbal part, since that was my weakness going in. I read a textbook on critical reasoning, which I review on the site, along with a short book on Logic and one called "How to Lie with Statistics." Combined with some pretty intense studying of the standard / official guides, I actually turned verbal into my strength, earning 97th percentile there, vs. 90th for quantitative.

If you have any questions about the test, please visit my site and contact me.

Just found this thread. A link to my blog is in my signature, below; it has been up since April '08.

I am NOT planning to apply to MBA programs. Instead, I am going to apply to MSA and MAcc programs.

Also, I am not in my late 20s with 5 to 7 years of experience. Rather, I am 24 with just over 1 year of full-time experience.

My first language is Russian, but I am absolutely fluent in English.

I am originally from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, and now live in the US.

My first attempt at the GMAT took place on the 18th of July, 2008. I will retake the GMAT on either the 8th or the 15th of September.

That seems to be it.

Here are a few really helpful blog/feeds that I think everyone should check out:

GMAT Grammar
Daily GMAT Practice Question

Also, you should be regularly checking the blogs of the different business schools (e.g., Stanford)

A link to my blog is in my signature. My blog doesn't chronicle my studies but features articles to improve your score. The toughest section for me was reading comprehension. I will try to spend extra time on that section as I felt this was my strongest section on the gmat.
