The Benefits of Enrolling for Formal Coaching for GMAT Preparation Over Online Preparation

My father prides in being a self-made man and this is something that I look upto him for. As a youngster, I always had this desire to be able to match upto him and see the look of content and gratification on his face that my professional success would bring. I have been nurturing this dream for years now and have taken one big step forward in this direction. I was on the verge of completion of my B.E in Electronics and Telecommunication when it was time for me to do something to realize my dream. I had a few business plans on my mind but I wanted to do it all the right way without. That's when I decided to pursue MBA from one of the top-notch international universities. Now, this isn't as easy as it sounds as there are a lot of conditions to be fulfilled to be able to qualify for a management program from the best of international B-schools around the world. I did quite a lot of networking by getting in touch with seniors, friends, friends of friends, and whoever I possibly could, to get all the know-how of how the best business schools that I must consider, the course of action, and all other related information. That said, my own online and offline research benefited me greatly as I went on to find answers to the smallest of my queries without the fear of being judged. Now, taking the GMAT examination and scoring well is one of the most crucial steps to qualify for a reputed B-school. You can either opt for formal coaching offered by various classes in your city or rely on online coaching and self-study. As for me, after all my research and findings, I did come to the conclusion that formal coaching is a far better option for all the aspirants out there. When it comes to GMAT tutorials Mumbai doesn't have a dearth of classes that do complete justice to aspiring business management students and I too enrolled in one that best suited my needs.

To ease things out a bit for those of you sailing in the same boat as me, I am listing down my reasons for choosing formal coaching classes vis-à-vis opting for self-study and online training:

1. Knowledge of the faculty: The faculty appointed at various coaching centers are qualified and experienced professionals who possess in-depth knowledge not only about the different sections of the examination but also of the best ways to solve problems. Their experience comes in handy in offering the most appropriate and time efficient way of taking the exam and dealing with the questions therein. Having coached students for years, these tutors are in a good position to mentor you and offer their guidance in the best way possible.
   
   
2. Answer to all your queries: Now it is not uncommon to encounter roadblocks while solving problems whilst preparing for an examination. And I am sure, during the course of your GMAT preparation, you will be left wondering “how is this the right solution and not what I came up with?”, on occasions more than one. This is precisely where having access to a tutor proves beneficial as you can walk upto them and get answers to all your doubts. Now, some of you may argue that you can find the right solution and method online, but in case you do, the time spent in doing so is comparatively more. Also, approaching a tutor in person won't only save you lots of time but also brings it with a sense of satisfaction when you can voice your questions and get them answered. Another thing to note here is that with a professional coaching center, you give yourself the chance to actually think and find solutions to questions rather than just watch online videos and be fed with the method and solution without much thinking.
   
   
3. Feedback on mock tests: Mock tests are a pivotal aspect of preparing for GMAT and these are provided by all the coaching centers as well as can be found for online training as well. However, there is a catch here. Though you can take mock tests online, the feedback that you get from a tutor is something that makes a huge difference and prepares you well for your next mock test and finally for the actual examination. Their comments and analysis of your performance and first-hand feedback will do you immense good and you will know how you can ace the examination that can make a world of a change to your career.
   
   

These were some aspects that made me choose professional GMAT tutorials in Mumbai for my preparation. If you too are debating your options, I hope my findings help you in some way.

All the Best!
