| The
College of Business and Management offers a GMAT Preparation Course to
help you increase your GMAT score. The GMAT (Graduate Management Admissions
Test) is part of the admission requirements for many schools, including
Northeastern, that offer an
MBA or MSA degree.
One of the best ways to prepare for the GMAT is to enroll in a course
that sharpens your test-taking skills and immerses you in the kinds of
questions you'll encounter on the exam. The GMAT exam is administered
on computers,
so may be quite different from any test you've taken before. |

Face to Face Instruction |
Web Based Class |
| Unlike
some other GMAT preparation courses, our course is taught by a
full-time tenured faculty member with over fifteen years of teaching
experience, and not by a graduate student.
We use the latest up-to-date learning resources and software provided
by Cambridge Educational Services. The course emphasizes test-taking
strategies
for enhancing your scores on the verbal and quantitative sections
of the exam. The GMAT professor reviews basic algebra and
geometry, and provides math shortcuts and assigns homework each week
to prepare you further. Northeastern Illinois University will
provide, on a limited basis, access to the University's math lab,
English writing lab, and computer lab at no additional cost |
Also
available is a self-guided GMAT Prep course delivered entirely
via the World Wide Web. The course includes an on-line question
and answer bulletin board. Study guide books and sample exams
will be mailed to your home, but no professor will be available
to assist you. Once you enroll, course access is valid for
four months, but no refunds are permitted after access has been
granted.
