After having not studied any math for 4 years in university i'm a bit rusty with maths other than the basics of algebra, geo and some linear equation stuff.

None of this stuff seems like it goes too indepth but just like it glosses over the basic elements of all the math genres.

Do those Kaplan/other courses help in this regard or would i be better off taking a math fundimentals course at York to get caught up again?

 

Take Kaplan. I took it and got 720 when I wrote it in '91. They've probably changed it since then, but a lot of stuff on there you wouldn't be current on or be thinking about.

 

With your car output of 1.21 gigawatts you could go back, refresh your memory and be back before supper. (in other words, i have no clue)

 

+1 on Kaplan. Start with the book and the sample test, then you can decide if you need to go on the course.

 

+1 Kaplan take the crash course they will teach you the tricks they will throw at you, and make you familiar with the q's.

 

done and done.

 

Good luck! What score will you need for your chosen B school?

 

Wow, 720!! Well done! I second Dave's recommendation. I had only 9 days to prepare for the GMAT and bought the book and practiced using the test you can download online. The book provides excellent strategies on how to improve your odds. They speak to the methodologies used in developing the questions so you gain that additional insight.

I didn't do anywhere near as well as Dave though

 

TREMENDOUSLY HIGH considering my unspectacular undergrad gpa and reasonably impressive CV of life accomplishments.

 

Back in the 1700's I did the combined LLB/MBA at western. I had to do the LSAT and the GMAT.

Just do any simulated tests a bunch of times. As with everything in life, practise and preparation are key.

Best of luck!

edit: I don't recall a lot of math in the gmat.

 

there's one math section..the rest is all verbal/analytical (thank god).

 

That was back when I was smart. If I was as smart now, I would stop buying cars and other toys that depreciate 50% per year or more for the first 3 years!

NNH,
how much are miata's down south...2nd gen like the one you had i believe.


started the kaplan course today...did a diagnostic test. math section pwned me though i still finished early. verbal section felt strong...finished with enuff time to go over everything.

 

Omar,

If you need help with math just ask. I know I am about 2000km away right now but I will do my best to help...well to the best I can.
