GMAT Preparation Course (Zurich)
Join us on November 11-12, 2022 at CEIBS Zurich Campus for this insightful GMAT workshop with GMATZurich’s Nick Barnard.
About this workshop
This workshop will enable participants to prepare for the GMAT (Graduate Management Admissions Test) under the guidance of an experienced tutor. Join our exclusive GMAT preparation course in Zurich and learn from business school admissions test expert and GMATZurich founder Nicholas Barnard. Working with top universities and companies, Nicolas has helped countless students to achieve high scores on their GMAT tests. Providing you with the essentials, this two-day course will help you achieve excellent exam results for your MBA applications.
The GMAT is a three-hour test with sections measuring English and mathematical proficiency. There are three sub-sections in verbal (sentence correction, critical reasoning, reading comprehension) and two in math (problem solving, data sufficiency). This course provides a theoretical basis to approaching typical questions, plus plenty of practical skills for both the verbal and math sections of the GMAT.
Because the exam is standardized and in multiple choice format there are many shortcuts that can be learned and applied. Workshop topics will include:
- Specific GMAT strategies and time management
- Sentence correction grammar review
- Reading skills for critical reasoning and reading comprehension
- Speed short cuts for math
- Data sufficiency “flow” technique
- English issues in math (word problems, terminology)
- Coping with time pressure
