GMAT 2010
For some people, the GMAT can become a months-, even years-long obsession. It shouldn't be that way. That certainly isn't what business schools, or the makers of the test, intend for it to be.
The main reason GMAT preparation drags out for people isn't that the test is too hard, or that it takes such a long time to adequately prepare for it. The most common cause is insufficient commitment.
By that, I don't mean that someone who spends six or eight months off and on preparing for the GMAT is weak, or unworthy; all I mean is that such a person has prioritized other things. If your job keeps you very busy, or if unpredictable distractions arise, you can lose all of your GMAT momentum, not study for several weeks, and end up starting over.
And there's the problem. I almost never recommend a course of study longer than 2.5 or 3 months, and many students don't even need that much time to prepare for the GMAT. But, if you limit your number of weeks, you need to maximize your diligence.
Whether you are going to study for one week or ten, it's crucial that you work consistently--every day, if possible. Don't assume that there's a certain number of hours that you must reach. The more consistent you are, the smaller that number is. If you are constantly forgetting about the test for a week or two at a time, that number can become infinitely large.
So, as you set your new year's resolutions for 2010, commit to getting the GMAT over with. Most importantly, commit to several weeks of consistent work, even if it means temporarily sacrificing other parts of your life.
Even if you don't reach your score goal on the first try, it's a whole lot better than spending another year or more taking halfway measures. Good luck in 2010!

MBA Business School Application Essays: How much time should you invest in them?
The B-School essays should be considered a surrogate to an interview. They should reflect your past accomplishments, your future goals, and your motivations. More importantly, they should reflect who you are and the events in your life that have led to your personal and professional growth. Sounds profound? Well, B-School essays are meant to be profound and thought provoking. They should tell a story about you that only you can tell.
Sure, not many of us have thought about our lives in such depth. In fact it is not even easy to recollect events that have had significant impact on our lives. Because, more often than not, these are day-to-day events which teach us important lessons but don’t always register in our minds as events. Invariably, we would draw a blank when we are asked for a failure or a defining moment in our life. This is because most of us have never really thought about these questions, and have not been trained to think on these lines.
If the answers don’t come easily, the only solution is to spend more time on the essay questions. Put the questions in your mind and wait for the answers to come. Give yourself time to ponder, to reflect, to introspect, and to think about what is important to you. We guarantee you, you will come up with situations that are unique to you and that will help you answer the questions with passion and depth.
The essays are unequivocally the most important element of your application package. All things being equal, the essays will be decisive in your admission.
You ideally ought to be spending about 30 to 45 days to write your essays. To write the essays well you need clarity. The clearer you are, the better and more convincing your essays will sound. Think about them, jot down points, go through three to four drafts, and share them with people who can provide you good feedback. Last but not the least, always check them for grammatical errors and flow problems.
If you feel you are unable to bring out your best in the essays, you can always use professional help in the form of business school counseling services and application essay editing services. There are many organizations on the web offering various essay editing services.
Give the essays the attention they deserve and you will be surprised at the results.

GMAT Score: How important is it?
There is no doubt that you should target a high GMAT score and that a high score will improve your chances of admission. A high score projects you as a person with good analytical and verbal skills, both of which are necessary to perform well in a management program and later, after completion of your course, to perform in real life business situations.
If you are applying to a top MBA program that is ranked high, you will need a high score just to qualify for an admission. The average GMAT scores are upwards of 680 in most of the top MBA programs in the US. This figure can be as high as 720 for students from Asian countries who normally score higher. So, if you are applying to a top MBA program, you will need a high GMAT score just to stay in contention. You will first need to get a good score, and then work to get the other application issues right. Your past academic, professional and personal background that you project through information you fill in your application form, and the quality of your application essays finally get you an admission. Since admissions are very competitive, it’s the quality of your background that gets you an admission.
Things could be different if you are not so particular about applying to the ranked MBA programs. The GMAT could be one of the most important factors for admission. If you have a score that is much higher than the average GMAT score indicated by the university, your chances of admission are really good as long as you fulfill the basic requirements. You must have the specified number of years of work experience, the required undergraduate academic performance, and fulfill the application requirements required by the university and you will be on your way. It’s the numbers you have to get right here - fulfill all application requirements, have the required number of years of work experience and an average academic background.
To sum it up, your GMAT score can just qualify you for admission if you are applying to a top program, whereas it can get you an admission if you are not applying to the ranked programs. In either case, a high score can work to your advantage.
You convey another aspect about yourself through your GMAT score. A good score shows that you have taken your MBA admissions seriously. You show that you knew it was important, you took it seriously and you achieved what you set out to achieve.

I am Harsha, a IT professional...
as Sir Abdul Kalam says " chase your dream and realize it..its in your hand...its your dream which makes you different from others... "... I am now here, i have created this for the sole purpose of tracking my progress in achieving my dream.
my 2010 new year resolution was to take GMAT before the 2011 and apply for ISB and wait for the interview in 2011 Jan or April. Effectively it means i am aiming for 2011 April class of ISB to join. By then i would be having 7.5 years of IT experience.
Well , why do i want to do MBA after 7.5years? Is it my dream i am chasing or is it that i want to do post-graduation? what is it...why do i need to do this...what makes me motivated to do this?
answers will posted in the coming posts....
