We hope you will join us in Beirut, Lebanon or Amman, Jordan for the free seminar on MBA admissions and GMAT test prep.  Register for this informative free seminar now!

From the results of the poll we created this list of Five Things You Should Know About the GMAT but Don’t:

1. Your Verbal and Quantitative scores matter at least as much as your overall score. Some test takers hope that an exceptionally strong performance on one section of the GMAT will overcome a weak performance on the other section. However, MBA admissions officers care about both sections’ scores, not just the overall score, so a balanced strong performance is critical. While it is by no means a mandatory minimum score, applicants can improve their chances of admissions by reaching the GMAT’s “golden ratio,” with scores in at least the 80th percentile on both the Quantitative and Verbal sections and an overall score of at least 700.
2. You’re not doomed if you miss the first few questions on the GMAT. Many people wrongly assume that the first questions matter far more than any subsequent questions in computer adaptive exams, which present questions of greater difficulty if a question is answered correctly, and questions of lower difficulty if a question is answered incorrectly. No less than the Graduate Management Admission Council, which runs the GMAT, has publicly debunked this myth. In reality, computer adaptive exams such as the GMAT are very sophisticated, and will accurately hone in on one’s true ability by the end of the test, whether or not a student accidentally misses an easy question early on.
3. You don’t need to master difficult math concepts to do well on the GMAT. In reality, the math tested on the GMAT is high school- or middle school-level arithmetic, and does not require advanced knowledge of finance or calculus. The GMAT is designed to evaluate a student’s ability to reason (such as the capacity to recognize patterns), as opposed to gauging how well test-takers understand advanced mathematical concepts.
4. Business schools do not look unfavorably upon people who take the GMAT multiple times. Admissions officers realize that a single test sitting does not necessarily reflect a candidate’s true ability. In general, they are very open to considering an applicant’s best score among multiple scores—and many applicants do in fact take it more than once. However, taking it more than three times can be a red flag to an admissions officer.
5. Retired real GMAT questions are not the only ones suitable for studying. While going “straight to the source” to get GMAT practice questions certainly makes sense, by no means are previous questions the only questions that can give an applicant an accurate feel for the real GMAT. In fact, retired questions are only published after they have been out of use for five years, during which time the test continues to evolve. GMAT experts, such as those at Veritas Prep, constantly monitor the exam and frequently create new questions to reflect these changes, preparing applicants for what they will see on test day.

Veritas Prep offers industry-leading admissions consulting services for applicants seeking admission to the most competitive business schools including MBA programs in the US, UK, and Canada.

The US Embassy Visa Counsel spoke to the audience about the process of applying for a student visa to the United States, the type of information that will be needed for a successful interview, and the numbers of students who have been approved for a visa in the past year. The students and their parents reacted very positively to the information as there is confusion about the US visa application process, and kept the US Embassy visa counsel very busy all night asking questions.

“I was very happy with the outcome of the Kuwait fair, we had three completed applications that I already faxed to my office.” Mr. Wes Roy, Associate Director of Admissions, Roger Williams University

Our next stop on the Middle East US College tour is Manama, Bahrain – with the fair on March 17th, 2009 at the Sheraton Bahrain Hotel.  While things started off a little slow but students and visitors began coming in after a short while and everything went great.

There was a very significant amount of Saudi Arabian students who had driven over from the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia and told us there was a 4 hour delay on the bridge to cross. The students visiting the fair were 60% Bahraini and 40% Saudi and many of the students were interested in graduate programs.

“The fair went very well and we had a steady stream of interested students”  said Stephanie Enstice, Florida Institute of Technology
