To accomplish this challenge the first step is to defeat the beast in my way. And the beast is none other than GMAT, apart from being a beast, it is also an opportunity to prove my abilities/skills related to studies. Surely, will need help from successful MBA's or the ones who are in the same boat I am in.http://challengemba.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)Blogger17125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889207337158795266.post-529252088915267425Tue, 18 Jan 2011 13:32:00 +00002017-06-16T10:22:05.931+05:00MeNew Challenges It has been a while since I blogged. There has been a lot going on work as there have been new challenges and new assignments to be accomplished at the moment. Also, the employer Motorola being separated as Motorola Solutions and then being acquired by NSN (Nokia Siemens Network) was creating many doubts regarding the job status and/or security.

It's Sunday :)Today's plan is to finish the advanced part of MGMAT FDP and attempt FDP questions from OG-10 (as much as possible) in blocks/bunches. And then, planning to start MGMAT GEO and try to finish Chapters 1 & 2 as soon as possible but with understanding the concepts thoroughly. Apart from studying, I'll be trolling around web & forums and watch some good movie :).

But, still need to do a lot of practice and also have to go through Applied Percents (will be covered in Word Translations). MGMAT has done a great job to explain difficult & twisted concepts in an easy way. I think i am not doing practice that much but I have some job responsibilities to take care of and then http://challengemba.blogspot.com/2010/10/percents-done-applied-percents-will-be.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889207337158795266.post-5551138242266523436Sun, 24 Oct 2010 07:10:00 +00002010-10-24T12:10:51.299+05:00Today PlanToday's plan is to study MGMAT FDP, especially Percents as this one gives me hard time when it comes to complex percents questions.After, doing FDP will head to OG's for some practice on these topics. Going to use error log to record my progress and then evaluate that where do I stand.

At first, I was skeptical of doing that but after looking at others coming and speaking of "Why you love Beaththegmat?" within 15 seconds. I gave it a shot and guess what, it was fun to do :).

Very well written & organized, it wasn't boring going through the chapter. I do have a Grammar book as a helping book for verbal but things like Brevity, Style and Redundancy are not discussed in grammar books.
