It was the first video I watched on GMAT preparation. Nine months ago, I had no clue how to study for the GMAT, so I looked up on the RUclips, and this video came on top of the search result. Two days ago, I took the test and scored a 760. To all of you who are starting their GMAT journey, all the very best. With proper strategies and hard work, you can ace the test too!
What I feel you always talk by heart and true resource only which is visible at ur face so we really appreciate your effort and you are a key player and guide for lots of upcoming bussiness tycoon.
I am not into GMAT preparation. But I am very much impressed with your way of talking to the point. So binge watched your channel's videos. I am from small town and not qualified as much you are. But want to communicate like you. Please could you give suggestions to speak English fluently like you do.
Hi Smita, I wish to congratulate you first for not letting your knowledge confined to yourself, as your videos are a gr8 helping hand. I wonder if I can have a quick chat with you regarding GMAT prep. as I am relying on self studies. That would surely help. Regards.
Does the GMAC keep changing the content of the (GMAT Official Guide) Quantitative Review? I have some old edition of quantitative review book, do I need to purchase the latest edition? I have heard that GMAC keeps updating the Official Guide that covers all the sections.
@@SmitaK thanks for the reply... I saw in the video that you had manhattan prep material. Would you mind sharing its pdf for advanced quant if you have one?
Mam can you suggest where did you get the pdf materials of the Manhattan materials?.The prices of the books are very high in amazon.Is there any way to download the same from internet for free?
Hi... Your video is so helpful Just wanted to check if Manhattan All the quant has all topics plus questions covered Just thought to ask you before buying as it's a bit pricey like 5k
Hi Shreya, I would suggest only buy the guides for the areas you need additional help in ... 90+ quant guide I have mentioned in the video is a good one to have if you are targeting 700,+ score
Hello ma'am Ma'am can you please tell me is there any need to purchase all three GMAT OGs ( main og , verbal review og , quant review og ) or the main OG is sufficient ?

Hello dii , i have completed my 12th standard this year but because of corona virus i am not joining any graduation program so i am thinking about preparing for GMAT from now. Can you please give me some tips and guidence because i have no idea about how to prepare , please reply 😊
preparing for Gmat might be too early. its only valid for 5 years and most of the programs that take via gmat requires atleast 2 years of work ex. Hence, preparation depends on what you want to do in the future.
@@SmitaK actually i don't have any relative or anyone from this background so it is difficult to understand everything, i don't even know from where to start 😬
Hello, ma'am. I'm just starting my GMAT preparation. This video was very helpful in giving me an idea about the preperation resources. My only doubt is does the OG contain any theory part at all or is it just a set of question banks?
You've invested a lot in both theoretical and practical way. But your marks didn't justify the effort. Did you also feel the same? Was it exam day dizziness?
@@SmitaK Ma'am so we have to buy directly from manhattan official website rather than from amazon ? Or if we buy from amazon as well we will still get an access to its free test series ?
