U must do the ETS Official Guide twice over to make sure u understand all the concepts. afterwards if u need more practice on tougher verbal questions u cn go thr' the LSAT questions..tht will give u more confidence on verbal n u wont lose focus if u get tougher ones on the test. The LSAT questions r available on the LSAT forum. All the best !

Hii ! thanks fr the link greenlake awhig: there are 'no-cosigner loans' for international students where no american needs to sign on ur behalf rather the college does...check out if ur university provides it it has a disadvantage though , prettyyyy steep interest rates, almost 10% ! tht ways u end up paying lagaan until ur back is broken....maybe they offer a game of cricket as a means to get lagaan-maaf :D which course n university r u looking at? If there's anyone here who's thinking of no-cosigner loans I'd be glad to discuss out the details... Thanks!

Thanks mba05! Im an international student and have no long terms plans yet about settling in a particular place... GMAT 670 ; GPA around 3.75 ; work ex around 2 yrs ; dont hv the economics or software background, i come from the health field just as u said i too have heard tht Dallas is a big state n also a corporate hub, so one does not have to make too many efforts to get decent placements....but then kelley is a much renowned college and it's course is ranked among the top 30 in most of the rankings...plus ya finance n general management r it's specialities but i still can't take a decision on kelley on 2 counts: 1. it's location: not a very happening business location, how much will tht affect placement chances 2. no schols: kelley hardly gives much schol n so its looking bad on finances aspect has anyone here taken the 'no-cosigner loan' for international students...can we discuss out the loan terms n repayment plans etc... thanks a lot....this forum is always a big help in understanding things in the right perspective! :tup:

Hii guys, I have been following the admissions forum for sometime now n ive yet to see anyone with a Kelley business school admit (Indiana Univ, Bloomington). I have got an admit from kelley n anothr from cox school of business (southern methodist univ.) can't decide:doh: ... actually i am not getting much feedback about kelley from anyone. if someone has any relevant info bout these colls pleaseeee help! Thanks! in dire straits...:crazy:

Thanks guys!! this is a wonderful forum ! all the best to u all :tup:

hii ppl! i got my final toefl score recently. it's 297. got a 6 on awa n missed one in structure but im happy wih the final score :D

:D :D :D hilarious stuff vogon!! :D

hey YEHAA, it's bpeibenga@yahoo.com & not djuan whoz got the score pal!

! ! ! AMMMMMMAZZZZINNNNNNG! [clap] ur the one! :tup: good luck fr apps...though u hardly need any luk now on :D

hii! oceana, a score of 30 should imly tht the answers were correct...besides, one does manage to attempt all the questions in toefl coz in this test time is not a problem....there's ample time to answer all alaa, thanks! toefl hardly needs any learning or mugging n so all one needs to do is to get familiar with the format of the test n practise accordingly. I think powerprep is the best bet. it has questions similar to toefl ones...even the photos in PP's listening sections n those in actual toefl r mostly the same ! so i developed a comfort level aftr doing PP. Section wise.. listening : if u have probs with this, the best bet wud be to watch CNN or some movies etc to get a hang of the tone n accent...going thr' idiom list might help structure: general grammar rules....Erin has put up some really nice stuff on testmagic reading: it is of basic level n plus uve got 70 minutes to complete the section!...no rush here just read carefully n that's it! writing: this remain the most non-practised part...for this going thr' the list of essays might be useful...i found following stuff on testmagic though i dint find time to go thr' this....maybe u'd like to check it out... http://www.www.urch.com/forums/showthread.php?p=108804#post108804 this link has lotsoffffff prep material but plz dont ignore powerprep tests...they are the best! :D Allll the besttt! :tup:
