Hello,
I am very weak in math. Can anyone give me the best resources for someone who is totally clueless? I will greatly appreciate it.
I look foward to hearing from you.
Thanks a bunch!

Great score Piyush and a very genuine debrief... Well done. Wish you all the success in the future.. I have started my preps and I have exactly 2 months. Since I am working full-time, I feel a bit tense about the time I have for the preparation.

Piyush/anyone,
Can you please send me the 1000CR document to rstephen2000@yahoo.com

Something about rankings

Something about B school rankings:


A quick overview of each of the 6 major rankings :

Business Week was the first publication to do a ranking. They issued their first in 1986 and focused on MBA students and corporate recruiters. 45% of the ranking is based on graduating students' survey responses. The recruiter poll accounts for 45% of the ranking and, since 2002, the remaining 10% is based on an intellectual capital rating from tallying journal articles and books published by faculty.

US News started in 1987 and ranks all MBA programs accredited by the AACSB. Rankings are based on 4 measurements: The deans and directors ratings account for 25%; the ratings from the recruiter survey account for another 15%. Placement success accounts for 35% and student selectivity accounts for the remaining 25%.

Forbes began publishing a ranking of MBA programs in 2000 based on return on investment. They determine ROI by looking at compensation five years after graduation minus tuition and the forgone salary during school. They survey graduates five years after graduation.

The Financial Times has surveyed graduates three years after graduation and gathered data directly from the schools since 2000. The FT ranks schools based on three factors; performance of the MBA program accounts for 55%. Diversity accounts for 25%. The research rating accounts for 20%.

The Wall Street Journal ranking, first published in 2001, is based on surveys of corporate recruiters. The ranking components for all schools measured include three equally weighted elements: perception of the school and its students (20 attributes), intended future supportive behavior toward that school, and a measure of mass appeal based on how many indicated that they recruit at the school.

Economist Intelligence Unit branch of the Economist organization has published a book on business schools, "Which MBA?" since 1988. Their online ranking began in 2002. They collect data from the schools, current students and recent graduates. The ranking measures career opportunities for graduates (35%), the quality of the educational experience (35%), increases in salary pre and post MBA (20%), and the potential value of the alumni network (10%).

Good score without practice. Try aiming for 750+ in real GMAT. Its not really difficult.
