Mark here, co-founder and Managing Tutor of MyGuru.

This post is the official launch of MyGuru's GMAT blog.  Each of MyGuru's founders, Mark (that's me), Jon, and Karthik scored 700+ on the GMAT and attended top 10 business schools, so GMAT prep and business school admission are areas of expertise for us.  We'd like to share our thoughts, advice, tips, and warnings about GMAT prep and the business school admissions process.

We plan to cover topics such as:

    • Understanding the relative weighting school's place on the GMAT and what that implies for prioritizing your time as you consider business school

    • How to develop a study plan

    • Whether and when to use GMAT classes, online prep tools, private tutors, or 1-1 prep

    • Common pitfalls of the studying process

    • Techniques, tips, and tricks for each section of the test

    • Tips for breaking through conceptual barriers to score 700+

    • Test day advice

    • And much more

Please check back once a week or so for our latest thinking, and feel free to email info@myguruedge.com if you have any questions about GMAT prep or the business school admissions process – we’ll happily get back to you with thoughts and advice based on our experiences.
