Very cool. I should see how fast I can get a date for an exam now before this take home is over

Awesome video. I'm actually taking your course now and I feel super motivated to take the GMAT.

Hey Brett What are your views in using LSAT material for strengthening one's verbal perfomance on the GMAT?

@dominatethegmat

Sorry that I'm just now seeing this. In general, I would say that preparing specifically for the GMAT using GMAT material is best. LSAT Logical Reasoning is a bit harder than GMAT Critical Reasoning, so in theory it would help you. However, the logic tested on the LSAT is a bit more traditional and formulaic and doesn't always apply to GMAT CR questions. So just be careful there. Otherwise, Reading Comp is roughly the same. And obviously there aren't sentence correction-type questions on the LSAT, so you'll have to prepare for that specifically for the GMAT. My students who have previously studied for and/or taken the LSAT and switch over to the GMAT generally perform well on the GMAT verbal section. So there's definitely carry-over. But again, if the GMAT is the only exam you're targeting, I think you'd probably be best-off just sticking with straight GMAT prep.

Do you have any specific tips on how to take notes fast and efficiently on an online whiteboard? Thank you!

I'm going to play around with their whiteboard and see if there are any hacks I can highlight. In the meantime, one of the main things is what I tell my students in my courses: If you find yourself doing long calculations on your scratch paper, you've probably missed something! For example, you rarely need to do the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the side(s) of a right triangle. Usually it's going to be one of the four common right triangles, and once you recognize it, you should be able to figure out the missing side(s) without the extra calculations. Etc. So the better you learn the underlying content tested on the GMAT, the less calculations you need to do. That said, I do recognize that the online whiteboard will be really helpful for certain question types, so I'll look into it a bit more. Hopefully they'll at least modify their policy allow people to use a mouse or USB track pad and pen. That would save students time significantly!

Hi everyone , couple of questions regarding the online GMAT. Would be really grateful if I get a response. 1. When the Procter chat window pops up, does your timer pause for the moment ? 2. Can we leave the room during our 5 minute break ? 3. Can we keep a bottle of water next with us during the test ?

@dominatethegmat

Questions 2 and 3 are answered here: www.mba.com/exams/gmat-online/gmat-online-experience/policies-and-procedures#policies . Specifically: "You may only leave the testing room or your seat during the optional five-minute break following the Integrated Reasoning section instructions screen of the exam." In terms of water, it is not listed as an approved item to be next to you during the exam. Instead, it lists water (and food, comfort items) as things you're allowed to access during your 5-minute break.

Hey, love your videos and content. Great stuff! Quick question: can you leave the room during your break for the online gmat exam?

Thanks Totti! I'm glad you're finding my content helpful. This is taken directly from the Policies & Procedures for the GMAT Online exam: "You may only leave the testing room or your seat during each of the optional eight-minute breaks. Unless you elect to skip a break, you will automatically be put on break after 60 seconds."

Interesting timing on your question as just yesterday (May 21, 2021), the GMAT Online added four new features that effectively make it identical to the test center version: www.businessbecause.com/news/gmat/7471/gmat-online-exam-awa. Regarding the two optional 8-minute breaks, one is between the Quant and Verbal sections and the second is before (or after) the AWA and IR sections (depending on which section order you select).

Hi, my whiteboard has a blackboard on the back. Will they terminate my exam because of that?

It should be okay. During the "getting started" process, make sure to flip it over to show your proctor that there isn't anything written on the blackboard side.
