1. i havent looked at a math problem since my 10th class.
2. i have a trouble keeping to things... if i dont have the class.. i might not keep practising.

but my main worry and nightmare is quant.. i dont know what i will do with that. i have narrowed my choices of institutes to CL &TIME.. both indadar due to proximity...

would appreciate ur advice on any of these classes (i need to decide FAST!!) and also ur advice on my quant struggle.

HELP!!
Yaar go for TIME Dadar .ARKS and a person named roy take lectures personally in Dadar centre.Even the counselling sessions are amazing.CL Mum doesnt have a gr8 faculty.

cheers
prashant

Mohit, depends on what your priority is. Do you wanna improve your language or just your vocab? Vocab-building will help in exams like FMS, but not much in CAT.

Cool! All the best to you man! Btw, some suggestions for improving VA/RC:

1. Grammar - no one better than Wren and Martin
2. Dictionary - best place to build vocab. Also, you can subscribe to merriam-webster's 'word of the day'.... coz they give you word roots and origins, which help you in building contextual vocab
3. Literature - to improve grammar, vocab, and concentration. Reading a few pages of authors like kafka, ayn rand, aldous huxley etc. helps in improving focus while solving RCs.

I think IMS BRMs are excellent for one if u are starting to preapre from basics .No body can beat them in basics.
Now i am not doing publicity of IMS .It is time Tested.

And everybody knows more than 30k ppl do classed from time and IMs but 300 to 400 come from both of them .so all tht matters is ur dedication at the end and the desire to succeed.
so join any one but self study at the end wins the game.
best od Luck
Me coming IIM a
