GMAT Questions
Has anyone here taken the GMAT.
Any tips? Hints? Good prep courses?

Took the GMAT and LSAT, with prep work being the big pre-test books that were available. Did fine on both.
This was 23 years ago though...I'm sure there are on-line alternatives that offer the same type of instruction.

Oh boy... the GMAT... I took them 1994 -- so I'm sure things have changed.
I usually look at how a person did on other administered exams to give advice. What kind of prep work did you do for your SAT or other similar exams? For some the practice books work great, for others they have seminars, and today, I'm sure they have online classes and exams... The LSAT is a totally different animal -- you have to train yourself to think (and reading comprehension wise) totally different. |

I took the SAT, GMAT, DAT and LSAT and didn't do any prep work for them (accepted into programs related to each test). After I took the DAT, I looked at a Kaplan prep-book a friend had and it was almost like a book full of 'cheat' suggestions, which may have worked on the spatial relationships portion of the test, but wouldn't have given a true read of the taker's aptitude for spatial relationships if they had been used to improve a score. Would you want a dentist who got into dental school by using trickery on the spatial relationships part of the DAT? I wouldn't. GMAT and LSAT are just deductive reasoning primarily.

get the Princeton Review book. it is full of 'tips' that is non-knowledge related e.g. how to pick the right multiple choice answer without going through the whole solution seeking process. the main enemy of gmat takers is time. or lack of. it has less to do with subject matter knowledge versus test-taking skills. a pretty screwed up system if you ask me
