Who Should Attend and Why

Prospective graduate applicants to management programs take the GMAT. Admissions panels use GMAT scores to supplement undergraduate records and other qualifications for graduate study. The scores provide common measures for comparing qualifications of applicants and aid in evaluating grades and recommendations.

According to the Graduate Management Admissions Council, the GMAT measures basic verbal, mathematical, and analytical writing skills that have been developed over a long period of time through education and work. Typically, your GMAT score will be one factor used to determine your qualification for admission to a graduate-level management program.

Overview

Our multi-session review course is designed to help you increase your score by providing instruction over the course of several weeks.

The GMAT Review Course will teach strategies to help you solve difficult Data Sufficiency questions; identify common grammar rules tested in Sentence Correction; recognize keywords in Reading Comprehension; apply basic logic principles to Critical Reasoning; and break complex Problem Solving items into small, easy-to-understand pieces.

The review course includes homework activities designed to give the course participants opportunities to supplement their in-class instruction.
