When
should I start preparing for these Examinations? |
| Ans. |
Normally
for any sincere student who is willing to put in 3 to
4 hours a day, a three-month period is ideal for
preparing and reaching one's peak performance. Our
training package is designed for 3 months.But you are most welcome to continue with us as long as you desire you are our student till you take the test.......

You
mean to say exactly for 3 months ? What if I want to
set my own pace ? |
| Ans. |
Well,
complete flexibility marks our training schedule. The
following case studies illustrate this.
Case
I : Mr. A is a commerce graduate doing his M.
Com., part I to ensure completion of 16 years of
education. He had opted for secretarial practice
instead of Maths and he enjoyed himself in college for
five years. Now he has suddenly realized that if he
gets 650 + in GMAT he can perhaps enter a reputed US
university. Our package for such a student would run
like this.
|
Basic Maths |
60 hrs. |
|
Reading Comprehension |
22 hrs. |
|
Advanced Math |
20 hrs. |
|
Sentence Correction |
30 hrs. |
|
Critical Reasoning |
12 hrs. |
|
Data Sufficiency |
16 hrs. |
|
Permutation Combination, Probability,
Statistics |
10 hrs. |
|
Total |
170 hrs. |
All
this can be finished in 7 weeks and then Mr. A is
ready to take his first paper test ! Yes, I insist
that every student must take at least 12 paper tests
to counter the fatigue factor which invariably
undermines the student's scoring capacity. Once Mr. A
finishes the paper tests he will shift to the computer
lab and spend anywhere between 40 to 60 hours on all
the software. Our study package for Mr. A will last
for 210 hours !!!
Case
II : Mr. B is an engineer working in a
multinational and can hardly make it even to the last
batch between 6:30 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. I ask him to
take 3 weeks off and he is with us from 8 : 30 in the
morning to 8 : 00 in the evening everyday. Subject to
his time constraints, we still manage to finish most
of the portion and for the following 3 to 5 weeks he
works on our material. He is in touch with us on
Saturdays and finally takes his GMAT.
Case
III : Mr. C is a 6th semester engineering student
and wants to take the GRE sometime next year. Well.
Mr. C joins, comes to us every day for 2 hours and
this continues for the next 60 days. Then Mr. C takes
a complete break but continues working on the study
material given by us. He then rejoins us just 40 days
prior to his test date, puts in best efforts and takes
the test !!
As I
said, we are very flexible and these case studies are
not hypothetical. You can actually meet Mr. A, B or C
if you care to drop in. Are you Mr. D with yet another
time schedule? You are welcome and we will accommodate
you.

I
have Barrons and Kaplans. Can I manage on my own? |
| Ans. |
Well,
these books are generally written by American authors
with American students as their main users. As a
result, most of the explanations are long-winded and
learning from these books will be a time consuming
process. Besides, GMAT and GRE have become interactive
and we change our study material in a very dynamic
way. Every student of ours is contacted after he/she
takes the test to find out whether he/she encountered
a problem not covered in our study material. For
example, one of our GMAT students reported a question
based on normal distribution in statistics and within
the next 72 hours all our GMAT students were briefed
extensively on that topic !
So
books or study material by correspondence course will
be a poor substitute for joining our classes.

When
do your batches start? |
| Ans. |
We
don't have a batch system. The day you join, your
training starts. We offer a series of lectures which
covers all the aspects of the examination that you
will appear for. These lectures are 6 days a week and
last for 2 hours or more. This is an ongoing process,
although after about 6 to 7 weeks you go into the test
mode and start taking the paper tests. The last 3
weeks of the training schedule are reserved for
computer practice sessions.

| 5. |
How
does your system work ? |
| Ans. |
We
operate from our own premises consisting of 3 lecture
rooms and a computer lab with 10 computers. As I had
explained earlier, depending upon the need, I make you
attend many lectures from a minimum of 6 hours to a
maximum of 20 hours per week.

Can
I change my time slots since I have my practicals on
I change my time slots since I have my practicals on
certain days? |
| Ans. |
No
problem at all. Since we don't a have batch system and
since every thing is cyclical, you can switch the time
slots as many times as you want. But let me warn you,
it is in your interest that you stick to a certain
time schedule as it would ensure that you cover the
entire study material a proper manner.

Do
you have computer facilities? |
| Ans. |
We
have 10 computers with software loaded and I advise
you to start practising on the computer in the last 3
weeks of your training schedule. Remember that the
bottomline for any test is knowing how to get the
right answer with a shortcut and in the quickest
possible time. If you attend my lectures regularly and
also take a lot of paper tests you will acquire these
skills.

universities, help for preparing recommendation

guidance. The charges for this facility is Rs.
14,000/- but a special discount of Rs.4,000/- is

package of coaching and counseling. These students pay

Do
you guarantee any performance from me? |
| Ans. |
Look
! If I give you any guarantee and then you join me, it
will mean only two things-I am a con man and you are a
naive person. But yes, as a customer, you have every
right to know how our system will help you maximise
your potential. We are very transparent about it. So
please drop in at our premises and meet any student, I
repeat, any student of ours to find out how sincerely,
consistently and intelligently we train them.

How
do you rate the performance of your students? |
| Ans. |
My
toppers have got 760 in GMAT, 1540 in GRE, 2350 in SAT
and 119 in TOEFL. But wait a minute, I don't want you
to join me just like that. These toppers may have
excelled because they were very regular, sincere and
they had followed my instructions implicitly. So what
I can assure you is an excellent output subject to
your sincere efforts over three months.
