GMAT aspirants at Hyderabad - Study Group

Thanks absaha,Head_Honcho,Siva for your opinions.

Thing is i have enrolled in Manhatten begumpet on Saturday as its near to my room and sounds good with their each day dedication task allotted for preparation.

I could not even opt for any coaching institute if i can dedicate myself to prepare by own,but i need some regularity and discipline in my preparation so i went for that.

Again its personal choice.At last what matters how much we our self prepares,Is not it?:-o:-o:-o:-o:-o
Hi Head Honcho, you could able to score 680 with out coaching ,Hats off man...:cheerio::cheerio::cheerio:

Hi all,

i am also in Hyderabad. I would like to GMAT b4 this year end. i would like to know any good Coaching centres in Hyderabad.

awaiting your response.

thanks in advance.

Hi Arun, Anish and Srivi,
How are you guyz doing? I am planning to join an institute (probably Manhattan Review) in 1 weeks time. Can we meet by fixing up a place to meet and carry on from there? Any more ideas to meet?

Take Care
Sunil

Hi Sunil,

where is this Manhattan review located in hyd?

i am planning to take one mock test soon and decide if i have to join a coaching class.

srividhya

Hi Srivi,
I think Manhattan has 3 branches- Begumpet, Himayatnagar and Tarnaka. I am planning to join tarnaka branch. Even, Princeton review has 3 branches at same places.

Dsun

Hi DSun,

thanks for the info. do you have any info on how are the classes? are they really useful? unless the instructors are going to be good, it would not be a gr88 idea to join the class. himayat nagar is closer to my place. before taking the decision to join the class, it would be better to get the proper feedback on the Manhattan centres in hyd ? it would be gr88 if you can share any info you have.

i was also thinking abt achievers point, GMAT 780 ( in banjara hills Rd. 1) .. any info on these would also be useful..

thanks again..

srividhya.

Hi
I am unable to decide either to join coaching or to study on my own.

Hi everyone,
i have over 5 years of work experience and currently want to pursue MBA abroad. As of now located in bangalore and want to relocate to hyderabad. But am very confused choosing between Manhattan and kaplan. From the posts i can see that many are inclined towards Manhattan. In that case is it the same faculty across Himayat nagar branch and begumpet branch. And can anyone help me out in finding me a decent two bedroom flat in Himayat Nagar or Begumpet.
Thanks

gmat780 is good , but no seats till next four months.
Princeton review is better than Manhattan Review and Kaplan in Hyderabad.

people, I have been reading a lot of positive feedback about Csquare Learnings in Banjara Hills. Can any one of you share your thoughts on this institute?
Thanks

Hi Srivi,
I had joined Manhattan at Begumpet and attended 2 classes (Q&V;); verbal instructor seems to be helpful. However with just one class, it is a little early to give right feedback. I will update you in my next post.

Hi,
Please let me know about good b-school admission counselors in Hyderabad. It would be great if someone can provide feedback about IMS, Manhattan Review and Princeton Review or any other good B-school admission counselors.

I recently gave GMAT and scored 750 (Q:51, V:40). If anyone needs any specific advice, I will be happy to help him/her out.

Thanks in advance

Hi Sandip,

Awesome score, congratulations!! Could you please point out any test series other than Manhattan and Kaplan? Also are you aware of any institute in Hyderabad that offers only test series for GMAT? Sometimes I wish coaching instis took GMAT as seriously as CAT :)
