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. _________________ http://second-lap.blogspot.com/ |

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. _________________ 700+ your target then check out my 800 gmat blog here:
