GMAT-the MBA Opportunity

If you have always dreamt of an International MBA degree which will put your career on the fast track then…..read on.

The Graduate Management Aptitude Test (GMAT) is the first step towards your quest for a top MBA degree. MBA schools across the world i.e US, Canada, U.K, Singapore, Australia, Hong Kong, Europe and even India are now accepting GMAT scores as the most accurate indicator of your academic potential. Whereas top US schools always looked at GMAT very closely, even the top Asian schools such as NUS, Singapore, Asian Institute of Management (Manila) and ISB, Hyderabad require a high score on the GMAT apart from a strong application. An MBA degree from a top school does not only necessarily mean good employment prospects in the country where you graduated but is also your passport to enhanced career prospects across the world.
GMAT is a multiple choice questions test and has a duration of 3.5 hours. The three sections of the exam -verbal, quantitative and analytical writing assess the applicants on logic, reasoning, reading comprehension, writing and mathematical skills. The test is scored out of 800 and is administered across the World, including New Delhi, all year round. The GMAT score is valid for 5 years hence you could even take it in your 2nd or 3rd year of college while the academic pressure is not very high.

Universities across the world encourage students from different cultures and nationalities as this results in superior batch quality as well as cosmopolitan culture on the campus. This translates into welcome treatment for applications from Indian students.
