1.
Is there a deadline to sign up for the PowerScore GMAT course?
There is no official deadline to sign up for our courses, but classes
do close due to size limitations. For classes starting in April, students
who enroll in the course by mid-March should be able to reserve a
space without a problem. If you know you are going to sign up for
a class but you have not yet sent in your payment, you can always
give us a call and we will place a courtesy hold on a space for you.
The hold will ensure that a space in the class is still available
for you when your payment arrives.

2. Will I lose my payment if I withdraw from the
course before it starts or if I decide to take the GMAT later?
No. The payment for our GMAT course is fully refundable minus a small
processing fee if you notify us in writing at least ten (10) business
days prior to the start of your first meeting.

3. Can I switch PowerScore course locations?
Yes. If you need to begin classes at one location and finish at another
location, you can transfer between courses. All that we require is
adequate notice of your transfer so that we can have class materials
for you at the new location.

4. Should I buy another study book to use before
classes start? Although our course provides comprehensive preparation
for the GMAT, you cannot be harmed by exposure to the math and English
problems contained in other books. In class you will learn a number
of optimal techniques for attacking the GMAT, and that will help correct
any bad habits you may have developed by studying other materials.

5. Why does PowerScore require all of their instructors
to score in the 99th percentile on an actual administered GMAT?
Why should we, or you, settle for less? The GMAT is an extremely varied
test, requiring knowledge of a broad spectrum of English and mathematical
principles. Our instructors, all of whom have scored in the 99th percentile,
have proven that they fully understand the test themselves, and thus
are able to focus more on teaching and answering questions since they
don’t have to struggle to understand the concepts that appear on the
GMAT. Instructor candidates with lower scores usually received those
scores because they couldn't fully grasp and apply all of the techniques
that effectively attack the GMAT. If they couldn't properly use and
apply the ideas themselves, it's generally going to be more difficult
for them to pass along those same ideas to their students. Also, many
of our students want to score in the 600s and 700s on the GMAT. If
their instructor has only been able to manage a 600 or 650 on the
test, how much confidence do you think that instructor would inspire
in his or her students? When a student comes to one of our instructors
and says, "I want to score in the 700s," our instructors can say,
"All right, here's what it takes, and here's how I did it."
Our competitors with lower instructor standards often claim that teachers
with high scores don't necessarily make the best instructors. We couldn't
agree more, and that's why we don't hire many of the qualified applicants
we interview. When selecting instructors, we look for people who can
patiently and effectively explain the ideas of our course, people
who can interact well with others in a classroom setting, and those
who truly enjoy teaching. Finding instructors like this isn't easy,
and that's why we offer one of the highest starting salaries in the
industry. In addition, we put our instructors through a rigorous training
program before they ever set foot in a real class. At PowerScore we
demand the best and we expect our students to do the same.

7. Do I have to pay a materials fee in addition to
the course tuition? No. Unlike some other courses, there is no
additional materials fee or upfront deposit for any of our courses.
The course tuition that you pay includes all materials, and of course
the materials are yours to keep once the course has ended.

8. Will PowerScore provide me with any help
during the business school application process? As GMAT experts
we naturally provide help for our students in all areas of the applications
process. We continually counsel students on such issues as writing
the application essays, getting recommendations, and deciding which
business schools to apply to and attend. We extend these services
to all of our students both past and present, and in fact most students
take advantage of our help after their GMAT course ends. For students
desiring intensive help, we offer a comprehensive MBAdmissions consulting.

“PowerScore
was a great prep course. It covered all topics used in GMAT and the instructor
was very friendly. I would strongly recommend it compared to other higher
priced prep courses.”
Ada Nishe

WEEKEND
"I found this preparation very informative. The organization
of the course provided a breakdown of each question type which helped
to make study time more efficient. I also feel that the review of the
basic concepts and the necessary formulas was also key to a better GMAT
score."
Wendy Wagner
