In this video, Siddharth shares his GMAT success story.
00:00 Quick Start
0:28 Introduction and Background
Siddharth is an engineering graduate who completed his degree in 2020 and has been working in a boutique strategy consulting firm for over 2.5 years.
1:03 Preparation Strategy
He chose the Crackverbal course because he felt it explained verbal concepts well, unlike other courses that made verbal seem intimidating.
He focused more on the verbal section as it was his weak area, and he managed to score 723 on the GMAT. He mentions that the GMAT and CAT require different strategies, especially in the verbal section.
03:35 Challenges and Pain Points
Initially, Sentence Correction (SC) was a problem, but later Critical Reasoning (CR) became more challenging. He found that overthinking led him to select out-of-scope questions in CR.
04:39 Time Management and Work-Life Balance
He managed his preparation alongside a hectic job by following the timetable provided by the course. He didn't have to create his own schedule; he just followed the one provided.
06:40 Focus on Accuracy Over Speed
Time wasn't a concern for him, but accuracy was.
He had to manage spending more time on difficult questions to maintain accuracy.
09:20 Test Day Experience
He took the offline version of the test and faced a hiccup as he initially forgot his passport. Despite the nervousness, he advises believing in the preparation process.
10:29 Advice for Aspirants
He recommends booking the GMAT date first and then preparing for it.
He suggests that 2 to 3 months of dedicated preparation should be sufficient, especially if one is following a structured course like Crackverbal.
