Looking to break 705? I’m your guy.

Hi, my name is Paul and I’m a professional GMAT tutor. I’ve been teaching the GMAT since 2013 and standardized tests since 2002. I’m a top 1% scorer on the GMAT and I teach the GMAT Focus Edition to students around the world, every day. I know the tips and tricks that can help you ace the test, but I also understand the “DNA” of the GMAT Focus Edition, which I will share with you. Once you understand how the test-makers think, you’ll be well on your way to an excellent GMAT score!

If you’re a high achiever who has done well at school and work, but who now feels overwhelmed by the GMAT Focus Edition, I can help. I’ve coached 100’s of students through the GMAT and into the business school of their dreams, and I can help you, too. The first thing to realize is that the GMAT is not a typical test, and preparing for it requires a new mindset and a fresh approach.

If you’ve been self-studying but your score hasn’t budged, even if you’ve put in huge hours, I know why. The reason has to do with the quality of your study, rather than the quantity. Doing many practice problems without developing the proper approach will simply wear you down and demotivate you.

Do you find it hard to stick to a study routine, week-after-week? You may simply need the structure and support that a professional tutor can provide. Most students prepare for 3 months, which is a long time and many hours getting familiar with very specific test material. Even the most dedicated student needs a coach in his or her corner!

I will help you master each component of the GMAT, including:

Critical Reasoning

Learn to dissect the Argument and identify the Conclusion, making the logic very clear / simple. Learn how to easily eliminate wrong answer choices. On Assumption questions, learn how to quickly verify that you’ve selected the correct answer.

Quant Reasoning

This section exclusively contains Problem Solving questions. The best solutions are the most abstract. Learn approaches that avoid calculation and save time. Discover the solution pathway GMAC wants you to find – and that other students miss!

Reading Comprehension

Speed reading isn’t necessary. Just learn to identify the trap answers that are planted to distract you from the correct answer choice. Learn why process of elimination (P.O.E.) is a better strategy than attempting to identify the correct answer.

Data Insights

Don’t ignore this section. Master the multi-media format so you can quickly answer questions involving data sufficiency, tables, graphs, charts, paragraph text or multiple sources. I will work with you on Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, Graphics Interpretation and Two-Part Analysis, so you are prepared for any DI question that appears on test day!

Pacing

Mastering the content on the GMAT is critical, but learning how to quickly move through the test is equally important. This is a revelation for most test-takers, as traditional education focuses on accuracy first, and speed, perhaps, secondarily. Not so with the GMAT. The pacing of the test is as important as your content knowledge or your ability to solve questions.

Computer Adaptive

Although the GMAT algorithm is a closely-guarded secret, you must appreciate certain of its features, such as why Quant percentiles are so low, that a strong Verbal score is required to break 705, that the GMAT severely penalises incomplete sections, that your experience on test day will be inversely correlated with your score, and how to boost your score by skipping questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the questions I often get asked:

How many hours a day should I study for the GMAT?

90 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Marathon study sessions don’t work; neither does cramming.

Why is the GMAT hard?

The GMAT is a time-pressured exam that adapts to your competency level. That means that throughout the test, you will be served questions that are often beyond your ability. This is an unusual experience for most test-takers, as there is little precedent for this type of adaptive test in standard high-school and college curricula. Additionally, the GMAT tests both your verbal acuity and quant skills, so it punishes imbalanced students. If you are particularly weak in one area or the other, the test will expose your weakness.

Can I study for the GMAT on my own?

Of course! There are certain very good resources out there, both in print and online. However, many students find a structured study plan with an experienced tutor invaluable in helping them achieve an outstanding score. Many students want to ensure they perform as well as possible on test day, given the high stakes and the competitive nature of top business school admissions.

How long does it take to prepare for the GMAT?

On average, it takes 3 months of dedicated studying. You can do this while working full-time, but you will have to study on the weekend (both Saturday and Sunday).

Which section is hardest?

Many students find Critical Reasoning difficult because it requires an understanding of logical abstraction. On the quant side, Data Sufficiency intimidates students because it uses a novel format to test knowledge. Both of these types of questions can be mastered with the right understanding and practice.

What about self-study with an app or online?

Software packages have come a long way since I started tutoring in 2002. Some of them are quite good and can provide a useful supplement to private tutoring. Others are rubbish. The main shortcoming of apps, however, is that they don’t provide accountability, support or encouragement. It’s easy to trail off and stop using an app, whereas scheduled classes with an instructor are hard to skip. Nor does software provide a truly tailored experience or adapt to students who have special needs.
