hey...Have you been preparing for CAT simultaneously ? if so, how much of the CAT preparation bit comes in handy for GMAT??

Hi Whetstone,

Since you've already given GMAT, can you please tell us what all books you used for your prep? And for improving your score what material are you planning to go through?

Thanks in advance

though both exams are different if u prepare well for one exam we will be confortable in other exam. that too CAT english section is shifting towards GMAT pattern.
certainly it will help greatly in CAT if u prepare for both GMAT and CAT.

Hi,
I would suggest you to give the GMAT before the CAT since the syllabus is almost the same but the tempraments required is different. A lot more effort is required for CAT to be Cracked whereas in GMAT only the basics and a little more practice sets is required.
I hope you find it useful.

Can any body please tell me how many times in a year GMAT is conducted ??

How should one go about preparing CAT along with GMAT this year??

Hi,
The GMAT is conducted all round the year and its an online exam, u need to register and take up the exam at a center. check out www.mba.com the offical GMAT website.
If you want to go hand in hand with GMAT and CAT try giving GMAT before CAT and Syllabus is almost the same so you can take them simulatanously.

I took GMAT on 6th Sep and ended up screwing verbal...i have my eyes on retaking the test sometime in Dec ( i.e after IIFT and before SNAP ..Coz that's the only breather that am gting )..Do you think its realistic? i got a 650 ( 49-M; 31- V) ....am pretty sure that i can do a much better job of it than my shoddy last attempt..

Hi whetstone,
Sw tht u gave GMAT and screwd up the verbal section. Lets chalk out a plan guys for the systematic study of GMAT+CAT. and hope all the inputs of this thread can give us a stratagic plan to bell the CAT and the GMAT. oketoungeb:

Took GMAT yesterday 12th Oct 08
Quant 49
Verbal 40

Total 720

Slightly disappointed as the two mocks that i took from the gmat prep offical software i crossed 750 once.
Prepared only from the offcial guide. 1 week of preparation as i'm off job now.

I hope i do much better than my mock scores as far as CAT is concerned.

Take it with a pinch of salt.
I guess you are highly mistaken about GMAT. Although it tests basics only but its a hard nut to crack. Try to take a diagnostic test and you'll face the reality.
