WHY?

Given the amount of information and number of forums on the GMAT, it has become increasingly difficult for aspirants to find a lean & efficient online resource that will help them to navigate their preparation and maximize their GMAT score.

The GMAT Blogger is a step in that direction.

The GMAT is an extremely structured test that poses a limited number of well-defined question types. In a way it is as if it is a machine that is churning out the questions and not people. Given this, the strategies to tackle these question types are also very well defined and limited.

So, the posts on the GMAT Blogger unlike the universe will not keep expanding indefinitely. The posts will stop once everything that needs to be said has been said.
