How to get a high score on the GMAT

I scored a 690 on the GMAT.  I'm sure if I took it again, I could score higher.  But I'm no genius.  You too can get a great score, if you are willing to put forth the effort.  Here's what I did:

  • I signed up for the Princeton Review, but only because my company pays for it.  If you aren't so lucky, I recommend 800 score.
  • I went to the the class and was fully present and participated.
  • I studied 20 hours a week for 5 weeks.
  • I took 5 practice tests.
  • During the exam, at anytime that I started to feel flustered, I softly said to myself "I am fast, focused, calm, and accurate."

If you fully follow that advice, you'll do well, I promise.  After all, it's only High School Math and English.
