GoToMeeting

Simply Brilliant’s GMAT classes are conducted online using GoToMeeting. GoToMeeting is easy to use and free (I pay for the subscription), and it offers a whiteboard and PowerPoint sharing. You can use your computer's audio to take advantage of GoToMeeting’s Internet audio (VOIP), or you can call in by telephone. Call-in phone numbers will be U.S.-based numbers that will likely be non-local, long-distance calls.

Recommended Materials

Following are the materials I recommend. Only the Official Guide (2017 edition) is essential for the class. The least expensive place to order everything is www.amazon.com. Many of these books are now available as ebooks. The Official Guide and other GMAT books are also generally available at Barnes & Noble stores. The 3 Official Guide books and the 10 Manhattan GMAT strategy guides are sold as sets at www.amazon.com, so if you want all the books in either set, be sure to order them as a set to get the discounted price.

  • The Official Guide (latest edition) – a big book published by the GMAC, the organization responsible for the GMAT exam
  • The Official Guide for GMAT Quantitative Review (latest edition) and
    The Official Guide for GMAT Verbal Review (latest edition)

A Holistic Approach

The Simply Brilliant GMAT course takes a holistic approach and emphasizes the best strategies for maximizing your score. You will learn how to:

  • Structure an effective study plan to acquire all the
    “hard skills” and “soft skills” you’ll need to succeed
  • Master the strategies for every question type
  • Build speed and perfect your pacing
  • Train your brain to get into “the zone”

Homework

After each class, I'll send a list of practice problems you can use to reinforce the concepts we covered in class.

Headsets

A headset is not necessary, but if you would prefer to use one, there are many options. One inexpensive option is the Logitech Clearchat stereo headset available for about US$10+shipping at www.amazon.com.

Refunds

Requests for refunds of advance payments must be received at least 48 hours prior to the start of the class. If a class session is canceled by Simply Brilliant or if you are dropped from a class by Simply Brilliant, you will receive a prorated refund.
