Our well-designed course curriculum is dynamic, interactive, and taught by experienced instructors who provide continuity
in the learning process as you advance from one skill set to the next.
In order to expose you to the latest test format, questions from recent GMAT tests will be taken
up in class. Our materials are constantly updated to reflect the most recent changes in the exam. Thus, you will be able to evaluate
your own strengths and weaknesses (whether in the math, verbal or essay sections of the test) and focus on those areas and questions where
you need the most practice. We stand firmly behind our total immersion approach to test preparation.
Convenient Weekend Study Schedule
Our comprehensive weekend course lets you concentrate in an atmosphere free from distractions and interruptions. Our

Limited Class Size
In order to ensure a low student-to-instructor ratio, our GMAT courses have a limited enrolment with spaces allocated
on a first-come-first-served basis. The small class size provides a comfortable setting with ample opportunity for interaction with
our talented and experienced GMAT course instructors.
Free Practice GMAT Exam Tests With Review Of Questions
Our courses conclude with the writing of full-length simulated Computer Adaptive Tests (CAT) during which testing conditions
are carefully reproduced. This provides our students with an excellent opportunity to practice and review (under GMAT exam conditions) the
many skills they have acquired during the weekend seminar.
Free Repeat Policy
All of our GMAT prep courses include a free repeat policy which allows students to repeat the entire course one time,
free of charge, within one year of their original course start date. Some students take advantage of this policy to review and
re-attend our test prep course for double the preparation time at one low price.
In order to ensure a low student-to-instructor ratio, we ask free repeat students to contact us in advance to reserve their place in
the upcoming GMAT prep class.

The Official Guide for GMAT Review, 12th Edition
In addition to taking one of our test preparation courses, obtaining a copy of the Official
Guide for GMAT Review, 12th edition, is by far the next best step to preparing for the GMAT. This is the
only study guide developed by the test creators, and includes real GMAT questions with thoroughly written
answers. In the 12th Edition Official Guide for GMAT Review, you will find a number of new sections added
including: a diagnostic section to help you decide where to focus your test-prep efforts; 800 questions
organized by the level of difficulty; a comprehensive math review; and numerous Analytical Writing
Assessment topics.
Some of the questions found in commercially-available GMAT practice books are just not comparable. Many of
these practice books, found in virtually every bookstore, have mistakes and address topics that are
unrelated to what you will see on the actual exam. These commercially-available practice books contain
many typos, some of the answers are transposed or just plain wrong, and much of the now-popular
“underground” internet material is loaded with mistakes. None of these problems exist with the
Official Guide for GMAT Review, 12th Edition. Thus every serious GMAT candidate should own a copy.
Luckily, students enrolled in one of our 48-hour classes will receive this book (a $50.00 value) at no
additional charge. Since this book is rarely found in bookstores and ordering it individually from
Educational Testing Services (ETS) is both expensive and time-consuming, students enrolled in our 30-hour
classes may purchase copies of the 12th edition guide at the course itself.
Please Note:
- All GMAT seminars run 6:00pm - 10:00pm Friday, 9:00am - 6:00pm Saturday, 9:00am - 6:00pm Sunday, and 6:00pm -10:00pm Thursday.
- The Thursday evening classes are optional sessions, free for all registered students, where a full-length practice GMAT is administered with actual test conditions carefully reproduced. This provides students an excellent opportunity to practice the techniques learned during the weekend seminar.
- Refund and Withdrawal Policy:
- We will refund your full tuition if you withdraw from the seminar at least two weeks in advance.
- We will refund your full tuition if the seminar for which you want to register is full (we will place your name on a waiting list).
- We will retain the $95 deposit if you withdraw from the seminar less than two weeks in advance.
- Course locations and dates are subject to change. Please be advised that seminars must obtain a minimum number of registrants in order to proceed.
