Hi Friends,

I am Karthik. I have been preparing for my GMAT for the past 2 months and I am planning to write my GMAT in Feb 2017. Will the GMAT syllabus change anytime soon or I am good with my preparation. What all factors do I need to consider before I write the test in Feb 2017. Your comments/suggestions will be of immense help to me. Thanks Firends.

Regards,
Karthik

Hi Karthik,

The test-makers don't have any plans to change the GMAT in the foreseeable future (at least not for the next 1 or 2 years)

Cheers,
Brent

Hi Karthik,

The GMAT is a remarkably consistent Exam (and it's been years since the last big change - the IR section - occurred). This is meant to say that the Official Exam that you'll take in February will be the same type of Exam that you would take today

Earlier this year, you mentioned that you had enrolled in a GMAT Course and that you were planning to take the GMAT in November, but now it looks like your plans have changed.

1) What materials have you used during your studies?
2) How have you scored on each of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
3) What is your goal score?
4) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
5) What Schools are you planning to apply to?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

The syllabus for this section is huge and varied as the topic of the passage could be any topic of general interest. You should focus on the structure of the answer and not the arguments presented.
