krovvidy,
Thank you for your generous remarks and wishes.
Based on the published class profile, conversations with current Ross students & alumni, I thought my application would be competitive. After the admissions interview, I thought my chances were good. And I'll take any luck I can get.
russty,
My prep was hurried and incomplete--I had about 4 weekends and as much as I could cram into the weekdays after work (which was okay on some days but very unproductive on others). I did
OG-11 working backwards (i.e. starting with the most difficult questions in each question type). I did not finish
OG-11; my estimate is I finished the last third, (maybe half in some sections) of
OG-11.
I took 6 practice tests:
GMAT Prep 1 : 710
MGMAT : 650
GMAT Prep 2 : 710 (1 week before GMAT)
PowerPrep 1 : 700
PowerPrep 2 : 720
GMAT Prep 2 : 700 (repeat, 3 days before GMAT)
I read through the Manhattan SC guide once and did two of the GMAT sets (verbal & quant).
I also participated in the TM Quant forums, which were thoroughly enjoyable.
I browsed through some of the material I downloaded from here:
Waxy's link:
GMAT Materials
TwinnSplitter's debrief (scroll down the thread):
http://www.urch.com/forums/just-fini...t-q50-v51.html (790 GMAT (q50, v51))
I did not have time to cover much of this material but I browsed and picked up whatever I could here and there.
Good luck with your prep and test!
mbawannabe,
University of Michigan has campuses in Ann Arbor, Dearborn and Flint but the Ross B-School is in Ann Arbor. The UM degrees offered in Dearborn and Flint (including the business degrees) are completely different, and are not related to those offered by the Ann Arbor campus.
All the best,
