I am considering applying for MD/MBA programs in the near future. As such, I would like to get my GMAT scores in ASAP since I am currently awaiting the results of the MD program applications.

How long does the average student take to complete the online course?

Is there any evidence that those who rush through the online course improve considerably less than those who take their time?

Thank you for your time!

Hi there,

Generally, our students take between 50 and 60 hours to complete the comprehensive Online course. I usually recommend that you take between 3 and 4 weeks to complete the course at minimum, because it's tough to fit in 50 hours of work in less than that amount of time.

I don't have specific data on how students who complete the course over 5 weeks do vs. students who complete the course in 3 weeks. However, if you can commit spending 10-15 hours a week with your course over the next three weeks, you can significantly improve your scores over what they would have been, had you not prepped at all, or done a shortened course (i.e. our ExpressOnline course).

Please let me know if you have any further questions, as I'd be happy to help.

In the GMAT Test preparation options (copied and pasted below), are the 3 options
1. GMAT Online Private Tutoring
2. GMAT LiveOnline
3. GMAT Online
inclusive in the prize or are they exclusive and we pick one of the three?

Also, do you have any data on whether students going into a specific program like MD/MBA or MS. Information systems or MS. in Accounting do better in a specific kind of preparation course? (i.e. one on one private tutorting versus classroom or online tutoring?)

P.S.: You have a the most formatted post advertising your prize!

I'd like to hear any info one might have on those MD/MBA stats, as well.

Also, I'm wondering if students exhibit a wide range of practice exam scores (as many do with regards to the MCAT) or if one could expect to score reasonably close to their practice exams.

"Also, I'm wondering if students exhibit a wide range of practice exam scores (as many do with regards to the MCAT) or if one could expect to score reasonably close to their practice exams."

The practice tests are a good representation of what you will see on the real thing (question difficulty, how it adapts to your performance, mix of topics, scoring etc). So in most cases your last practice test is a good predictor of your score on test day. But like anything, your performance may vary on test day.
