If you're looking for a Minneapolis GMAT prep course, Varsity Tutors can help you prepare with a review course to make you feel ready for test day. The Graduate Management Admission Test, better known as the GMAT, can be an important step on the way to making it into a business graduate program. If you're a current student, or perhaps a working professional who's looking to reach the next level in your career, a GMAT prep course is a good place to start to put you on the right path. The GMAT is required for consideration for most MBA programs, such as the one at the University of Minnesota Carlson School of Management. The test itself has four diverse sections that are meant to test your skill and potential for whichever business school you apply to. This important score will be used by admission boards as a factor in your admission. In order to show off your dedication to your profession, it's important to perform well on your GMAT test day. To get ready for the big day, a Minnesota GMAT prep course can help you review each section of the test to prepare. A prep course is a collaborative online class, led by an expert instructor who may be able to give exactly the help you need to prepare. Enrolling in a Minneapolis GMAT course by Varsity Tutors can give you insight and clarity into the GMAT test and what is needed to do well.
What can a Minneapolis GMAT course help me review before the test?
A GMAT prep course can cover the four sections of the GMAT test that you'll need to prepare for These four sections are Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Integrated Writing, and Analytical Writing Assessment. In each section, the questions will be in multiple-choice format, or essay format for the Analytical Writing section. You'll have about three and a half hours to take the test, which doesn't include any optional break time. Since the test covers such a diverse range of topics and skills, it's smart to take a Minneapolis GMAT course to help you prepare.
A closer look at how the test is arranged can give you a better idea about what you need to be ready for. In Verbal Reasoning, you'll have 65 minutes to answer 36 multiple-choice questions. These questions include Reading Comprehension, which asks you to read a short passage and answer related questions, and Critical Reasoning, which asks you to answer questions that evaluate a passage's argument.
Quantitative Reasoning has 31 questions to answer in 62 minutes. This section focuses on Graphic Data Interpretation, Mathematical Reasoning, and Quantitative Problem Solving. In the Integrated Reasoning part of the test, there are 12 questions and you are given 30 minutes to complete them. These questions ask you to solve complex problems using the data provided in the question. Lastly, the Analytical Writing portion gives you 30 minutes to write an essay, analyzing and critiquing an argument. A strong response here requires analytical skills, organizational skills, and a strong command of English.
As you can see, this test covers a lot of critical and analytical thinking. Having professional assistance in reviewing these skills before test day might greatly improve your scores. How does a GMAT class help me before test day? A GMAT class is done in an online environment where you can collaborate with your instructor. The online course mode is a great option for busy students applying to graduate schools, as well as working professionals ready to expand their career. A GMAT class is a weekly online class that you can easily fit into your schedule. You can choose either a two week or four week session, depending all on the amount of prep time you'll need. Not having to commute will give you more time to concentrate on your study skills, and your favorite study spot can be your GMAT classroom. Once your prep class begins, you'll be in a live session that's interactive with your instructor and fellow students, similar to a live face-to-face classroom experience. You'll be able to work in groups with other classmates on sections of the test and work together to problem solve, just like an in-person study group. You can ask questions and collaborate with others as you work through practice sessions of the GMAT. This kind of collaboration is great for helping increase retention of new information and to deepen your understanding of the skills required. Additionally, you can have one-on-one time with your instructor to ask questions and receive insight for test day, such as strategies for isolating the best answer on a multiple-choice section. You can also get feedback on your writing strengths for the Analytical Writing section, which can help you perform your best on test day. You may cover things such as how to deconstruct an argument, how to write an effective essay outline, or how to best organize your ideas. By utilizing classroom collaboration and working with an instructor, every aspect of the online class can help you reach towards your GMAT score goal.

I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.
