As I am a student currently searching for a career path, reading this book helped me see some of the possibilities that could potentially be the right path for me. Not only does this book give advice on how to score higher on your GMAT, it also gives advice on how to be a part of a business, and how to run a business.
I found this book to be very informative with ideas that could be helpful throughout day to day life for anyone. The author gives information from writing your admissions essay, to completing an impeccable resume, to succeeding in a job interview to your maximum potential. The author also discusses how to deal with different personality types in the world of business, which I feel is always useful to know, even if you are not planning on starting a business.
This book will be looked at in the future as a guide to help me go farther in a career than I had ever imagined. Reading it gives me the information needed to succeed, and the incentive to try harder. I recommend this book to anyone who is in need of guidance for any school or work situation.

Determining if the pursuit of a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree is the right academic choice for your specific career path requires considerable introspection and self assessment of a wide variety of professional skill sets and social attributes, along with an enormous amount of commitment, both professionally and personally. This includes the objective and comprehensive inspection of strengths, weaknesses, and experience. Additionally, a self examination of your specific motivations for choosing a career in management is necessary, as is determining your qualifications as a viable candidate for business school.
Once you've completed the various processes involved in reaching the decision to pursue an advanced degree in business management, the next step is to begin the application process for admission into a desired MBA program. The successful completion of the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), along with a Graduate Record Examination (GRE), is required for the submission of an application for enrollment into graduate school to obtain your MBA. 101 Ways to Score Higher on Your GMAT, written by Arlene Connolly, is a concise preparatory guide for achieving optimal scores when taking these two standardized tests, while also providing a plethora of information regarding the literal graduate school experience (areas of study, curriculum, etc.). This book provides an exhaustive amount of information, resources, and guidance necessary to support the excellence for the most successful MBA student, even offering a brief discussion of the Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) program.
This expansive guide aides readers in successfully advancing within their respected fields of management, while subsequently suggesting several options for possible changes in occupational direction, as afforded by obtaining an MBA. It provides an extensive view into the many challenges involved in the daily professional life of those in various management positions and lends direction to increase the manager's specific corporate viability. Methods for assessment of specific business school choices are also contained within the text, including the idea of exploring distance learning programs, along with supportive resources for obtaining funding for the MBA education and practical advice for completion of the official application process. Sample examination questions are provided for the student to practice their approach to taking the GMAT and explanatory support is provided for score report assessment. Additionally, detailed web and print resources are included in the bibliography to further assist the student in their achievement of optimal test performance. 101 Ways to Score Higher on Your GMAT aptly deserves a 5-star rating; I would strongly recommend this invaluable guide as a reference for anyone considering pursuing a career in business management. Simply outlined, but very detailed, this book is superior in offering extensive preparation, guidance, and support to ensure a confident and ready GMAT testee. | | | | Score Higher and Get Great Job Tips Aug 27, 2008 |

Finally, there is a section on salaries, how much you are worth with a grad degree, and how much you are worth without one. If you're not getting paid enough, or, if you need confidence to take the exam and to get a better job, then this is a book worth reading.
