  • From time to time we have seen many students
    pouring themselves into the preparation of GMAT,
    yet not scoring great and falling short. This is
    because of lacking the understanding of how to
    prepare yourself for the GMAT exam. I won't
    blame students for this because rote learning yet
    prevails. You should know that the GMAT exam is
    solely made for testing your ability and not your
    knowledge. Practicing on your skills will be
    handy for you on the test day. Without sufficient
    practice, you won't be able to answer the
    questions which are designed to check your
    different skills. To help test-takers excel in
    these skills GMAT Singapore offers the best GMAT
    classes online across different cities in
    Singapore.

  • Jumping directly on GMAT preparation classes can
    be troublesome. However, having a better
    understanding of what the GMAT is, and what it
    tests, is your first step in designing an
    effective study plan. You should ensure that you
    are not wasting any of your valuable time on the
    wrong strategy. In this blog, I will discuss five
    of the most common mistakes made by the GMAT
    takers while preparing themselves. 
  • Here I have mentioned 5 common mistakes made by
    test-takers while preparing for the GMAT and what
    you should do to avoid them

1. Never Underestimate the GMAT
  • Let me remind you, you're not the one who
    underestimates the GMAT and what it takes to
    prepare for it. In most of the cases, GMAT
    test-takers typically have a degree and know what
    it takes to crack this thing. They normally do
    well. As a test-taker, you should know that the
    GMAT sifts test-takers into percentiles. This
    means that your score is dependent on how you
    perform in comparison to the other candidates.
    And you must understand that they are doing their
    best with the overall GMAT practice. So, never
    underestimate them! 
  • Starting your preparation late can be hectic and
    leaves you behind the other candidates. GMAC says
    that you should consider spending a minimum of
    one year to prepare well. Make sure you leave
    yourself enough time for the GMAT exam
    preparation so that you can get the best GMAT
    score.

2. Studying for GMAT is Bad Idea Rather Practice
  • As mentioned earlier you should know that one
    takes GMAT to test their ability to cope up with
    different skills and not the knowledge. You
    shouldn't spend much time on rote learning the
    concepts and little time for practicing the
    questions. Most of your learning will come from
    tackling the real GMAT test questions. Take the
    whole preparation process as a marathon, not a
    sprint. With abundant practice, you are building
    your ability to do your best on the GMAT test
    day. Just like an athlete trains for a marathon,
    you should also keep your practice consistent and
    avoid losing momentum by stopping and starting.

3. Wise Use of Right GMAT Study Materials
  • It is easy to prepare for GMAT if you have a good
    understanding of how to choose a study material
    online. However, there is no substitute for the
    official GMAT questions. Different institutions
    provide assistance on GMAT preparation online.
    They often share different model questions of the
    GMAT and previous year's questions as well. GMAT
    Singapore run by one of the top institutions in
    Singapore offers a full-length test that
    replicates the original GMAT test. I personally
    recommend you book this practice test to see
    where you are with your preparation. However,
    never waste these tests too early on in the
    process.

4. Verbal Section Shouldnt be Neglected
  • Many test-takers are scared of GMAT's
    quantitative segment. But, ensure you're not
    disregarding the verbal segment in light of the
    fact that your last score out of 800 is weighted
    more for the verbal segment of the GMAT test. 
  • theres one misconception related to the verbal
    section which Im aware of. It is said that the
    verbal reasoning section is not about good
    business English. Many native English-speakers
    have found out the hard way that a good grasp of
    the language is necessary but not sufficient to
    get a good score. The verbal section of the GMAT
    is about your verbal reasoning ability. Thats
    something we all tend to overestimate. So, make
    sure you're practicing enough to ace the verbal
    section.

5. Strategize The Whole Test Even Before You Take
It
  • As a test-taker, you should walk into the GMAT
    Singapore test center with a clear idea about the
    questions and how to answer them in the
    stipulated time. You should know what are your
    weak and strong points and strategize your test
    accordingly. Make sure you double-check, if
    possible triple-check your answers.
  • Wrapping up, I just want to say that you should
    tell yourself that GMAT is tough but not
    impossible and with dedicated practice, and
    self-awareness you can crack it easily. However,
    you should make sure you are not committing any
    of these mistakes mentioned.
