Give me motivation to study for GMAT- Grapevine

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Hi Folks,

I wanna prepare for GMAT and build a profile for a top business school. However, with the high demanding work and a lot of late nights I am not able to get enough time and at times enough motivation to study. 
Does anyone have any recommendations as to what should I do or what sort of plan I can follow ?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I'm an arts major working in the communications space, planning to do an MBA. I've GMAT focus books and English seemed doable on my own. I've been using online resources to study Math but I'm very confused as to what to study and how to study. So I've decided to go for a coaching but I've no idea which coaching is actually good, especially for someone who doesn't come from engineering or other Math background. Jamboree is charging over a lakh for coaching plus counselling on admissions while there's Y axis which is charging much lower at about 50k but doesn't have many reviews. I also read reviews on Jamboree being the typical marketing institute and not worth for money. Has anybody actually taken up or know anyone who has taken up GMAT coaching that helped them? It's critical I start preparing now if I have to start my MBA in 2025. As there are a lot of business folks here, I would appreciate any genuine help you can send this way. Thank you

It’s quite expensive to pursue one, but I’m worried not doing it will stagnate my career long term. Any views on whether I should apply (4yrs work experience currently, have worked in a boutique consulting firm previously). 

Any help will be sincerely appreciated!!

Yesterday I have given my gate-Xe , being a mechanical engineering student, it was good to write this as I dont want to go to core sector but to product management/Consulting, I have given this exam just for the sake of giving it in order to score good rank so that I could feel that I have achieved something , i genuinely prepared whole heartedly and studied every concepts did variety of questions and was expecting the rank under 500-1000 as per my preparation but Yesterday IISC Bangalore ask the questions which has never even asked in the history of Gate XE and I didn't study those topics , that made me anxious, although I solved enough questions but silly mistakes costed me a lot , now I don't have any hope to secure good rank , I failed my jee twice and was thinking this time that atleast I could score good but didn't expect this from myself , I m very depressed , it has been six years when I was preparing for jee and today when I am writing this and nothing changed in my life despite of working hard , at that time also I was surrounded by failures and today also I am surrounded by failures🙂🙂🙂

I've heard lots of conflicting good and bad viewpoints on ISB on Grapevine and otherwise. I want to explore these things more and build a balanced perspective.

Good things I've heard:-
1. Average comp is decently high as most of the batch has a decent amount of experience.
2. Professors, their way of teaching and the actual course content is one of the best in India.
3. The network is really strong, easily accessible via many channels and helps alumni land jobs frequently.

Bad things I've heard:-
1. Placement comp numbers are heavily inflated.
2. Resume shortlisting in placements is hard because everyone exaggerates a lot and there's no resume vetting.
3. Many people go unplaced.

How much of this (good or bad) is true? Any other good or bad points?

Hello community,
I'm planning for the GMAT and wanted to know how you guys prepared for the same. Any advice on planning? What should be the score to aim if I want to get into the top 10 B schools in the US?

Not very confident about my english/quant/exam writing skills as it's been 6 years since I prepared for IIT JEE (last competitive exam). Would love to hear if you have similar experiences

Anyone preparing for the GMAT/B School Applications the next few months?

Data Analyst

I am an IIT grad, with 8 years of work experience. I come from a small town in India. I have been an extremely hard working (and #ambitiouschap) always. I would get married within next 2 years. I earn decent money. The only reason I want to pursue an MBA from an Ivy league is that it's my dream. Tried 2 GMAT attempts for regular MBA a few years ago, but couldn't even score 700 (anxiety issue before the exam - twice!)
My objective from MBA is not a career acceleration, role-pivots, or entrepreneurship etc. (HBS, Wharton, Stanford - these schools give me goosebumps somehow). I just to wish to add a tag to my profile, that's it. Can anyone relate to what I am trying to say here please?
