It is essential to properly prepare for the GMAT.

Inadequate preparation results in poor testing decisions, rushing, missing easy questions, nervousness, and, worst of all, poor GMAT test scores. In fact, time management is probably the MOST important aspect of the test that can be learned. The reason is because if you had no time limit, you could answer most, if not all, of the test's questions correctly.

This makes it essential to place the majority of your preparation on practicing time management. It is also important that you study, take practice tests, and take a prep course. These three elements will increase your time management ability.

Practice tests are the key to performing well on the GMAT. Using past GMAT exams allows you to become more familiar with the test's format, the type of questions, and difficulty levels.

But just using the past tests is not enough. Test prep experts agree that practicing UNDER TIMED CONDITIONS best prepares you for the pressures of test day.

Taking practice tests under real time pressure is essential in improving pacing. This time constraint can be simulated by taking the old tests along with THE SILENT TIMER™. This process can greatly improve your time management which results in a higher score. Even if you cannot bring the timer into your test, THE SILENT TIMER ™ is still the number one practice tool.

If you are taking a preparation course from The Princeton Review, Kaplan, Gorilla Test Prep, or another great test prep company, you already know how important having a timer is to doing well on your test.
