* "Cuts through the BS and is written in a way that is very accessible to the reader." - Chau * "... eased my anxiety. I used the book as a guide and liked that it lays out the study plan, what to do, how to approach your strengths and weaknesses, and how to stay on track then breaks down the different subjects and problems you'll tackle." - Caroline * "... a great help in setting my priorities during studying and in not feeling too burnt out by exam day. Having a plan written out for each day really helped me to focus and discipline myself to keep studying... the chapters on the different sections / question types of the GMAT provided good tips on how to approach these questions... I found 30 Day GMAT Success to be a great supplement to the GMAC-published Official Guides and I would definitely recommend it to others." - JM

From the Author Business school changed the way I see the world, and more importantly, opened doors for me to explore new things, travel around the world, and work with some of the most respected global business leaders. And it all started with a simple thought of wanting to get an MBA, and a few simple steps I took to prepare for the GMAT.
It was late January in 2005 when I decided to apply for business schools. The deadlines are in early March, which means on top of getting letters of recommendations, writing personal essays, and getting the applications ready, I have to take the GMAT within a month of time. I didn't have the luxury of time to compare different prep courses or to find a perfect tutor, so I decided to tackle the test in my own way. Fortunately, after a lot of hard work, I came out of the test center surprised and ecstatic.
I never thought I could score a near perfect score (780 out of 800) on the GMAT, not to mention doing so within that one month of studying time I had.
I've always wanted to share this experience with people who are thinking about taking the GMAT but don't know where to start. I started writing this book after business school while working at Sony Headquarter Strategy Office in Tokyo and it took me almost two years to finish. In this book, I share with you how I planned my study, how I kept myself motivated, some of the mistakes I made, and techniques I found most useful. You might find this book different from other test preparation books, as it is very personal about my own experience. The GMAT is not rocket science, and with dedication and hard work, you too will be able to achieve the score you want.
