Kaplan GMAT Advanced

More about this course in the coming days. For now though, let me just say that the Kaplan User Interface is the best of the lot.

I heard that they revamped their whole system recently. Boy, they have done a good job. I love the dashboard, the smart report card, and the personal attention from the tutors. Though they are not 'personal tutors' per se, they come ever so close to offering the 'personal tutor' feel... without charging the 'personal tutor' FEE :P

I will be spending loads of hours on their course this week, so expect a more detailed and analytical review in the   next couple of days. Once I'm done with that, I'll probably draw out a comparison of all the major test prep providers.

Bye for now.

Kaplan GMAT Advanced

Okay, so I've been enrolled in this really cool Kaplan "GMAT Advanced Anywhere" course. It's been two weeks since my course started, but I haven't been able to put up a proper review yet - partly because I missed a few classes, and partly because I've been uber busy with lots of stuff... and of course some blame can be attributed to my downright laziness.
Back to the course. The user interface is really cool. Probably the best. The course is structured in such a way that if you do what they ask you to do, I'm sure you won't have a problem getting the magic 700+ score on the GMAT.
I'll probably post a detailed review sometime this weekend (when I'm supposed to be working on my ISB essay).

Coming Up This Week

Coming up on this week's edition of Gunning for MBA:

• Q&A with Brian Galvin (VeritasPrep)
• First Impressions of Kaplan's GMAT Advanced Course
• Tray starts work on his apps

And I still have one BTG Practice Questions account up for grabs; drop me an email.

Coming Up - Beat The GMAT Practice Questions & Kaplan GMAT Advanced

Two GMAT products (or should I call them services) that I am very excited about are the Beat The GMAT (BTG) Practice Questions and the Kaplan GMAT Adavanced course.

First up is the BTG Practice Questions, which is due to officially launch on November 02, i.e. next week Tuesday. This weekend i'll go over the 200 or so questions that have been loaded into my reviewer account, and hopefully I'll be able to give y'all my feedback by the launch day. Plus there are some freebies that I will be giving out courtesy Beat The GMAT, so watch out for that.

Next up, and something that has me smacking my lips in anticipation is the Kaplan GMAT Advanced course. There are so many of the 'one-size-meets-all' course offerings out there, but what is in short supply is the course that caters to those who have already done significant prep and are looking for the extra something to shift their prep to top gear. I think this course could be THE ONE.

And before you ask, I haven't forgotten - i will also be posting my review of Grockit & Knewton sometime down the line.
