    Hi Puys,

    I haven't really contribute much to the forum till now, but I have been a silent observer reading the discussions and taking relevant info and guidance from experts. I have been through most of what you guys are likely to go through. From a GMAT of 650 I got 760 in my second attempt. Believe me i have no idea how i did that. ;) I have been working with McKinsey Knowledge Centre for the past 5 years. I thought I needed a stronger profile to apply to the top schools, but I was keen on taking a chance at least. Applied to Duke, Chicago Booth, Kellogg and ISB. Now I so wish I had applied to Harvard & Wharton as well. :p . . Nevertheless, I got calls from Kellogg and ISB and was able to convert Kellogg. Ya, Very HAPPY indeed! :) and I quit my job to just relax now and prepare for my departure.
    But I thought I could also use my free time to help some people, just in case this entire experience has taught me something. Of course I have a good lot of online material and am sure everyone does. But the most important part is to know which one to study and which one to not study. I think my journey from 650 to 760 taught me that. :) And the application process is not so easy either. But I got good help from people around me. So perhaps I can share my experience on that as well. So just in case you guys have any specific questions, you may ask me here or mail me, pm me, wotever. . and if you need any specific online material, i would be happy to share that as well. I think i have a lot of them, but i hope i have wot u want. :) I have always enjoyed helping people and I would love to help out as many puys as possible before I fly off. ;) All the best to you all!

    • Jay05 Hello Neha, Congrates. I am a new member of this and any GMAT group. Just today finally decided to think about GMAT and executive MBA. I am in IT and have around 10 yrs of exp. I am planning for 1 yr executive MBA (most likely in India). I want to start the preparation. Will you please guide me, how to start it? I am reachable at way2jay@gmail.com. Can you please share some material to start with, links to good group/sites will be really helpful.

                    dey take 12 mis to meet so to cover 1/4 of circumference they need 6 sec so the value of required time will be 6+12n
                    so the ans will be 144 ..
