Kaplan has some great resources for Pre-Graduate Tests.  The bookstore at your college should also have some of the same materials.  Kaplan also provides free practice tests in many areas.  You might want to check out thier website to see if there are any in your area.  I took the practice LSAT (Pre Law School Test) like that and it really helped me.  Good Luck

GMAT's are generally required for entry into a reputable MBA degree program. There are a number of schools that do not require the GMAT. Depending on what kind of school you want to attend, you might opt for a distance education MBA program. While working as a MD you can work on your MBA and finish in less than 2 years. A simple search on Google will get a number of results of distance education MBA programs. Many are accredited, some are not, so do your research.

In the USA, many like that you have corporate world experience as well as good test scores. I know a good GMAT school would be around 720 as well as a decent GPA (3.0 and above generally). Hope this helps.

yes, some Management programs require GMAT, and they might have something different for lawers and doctors. \n\nIf you want to find a PhD w/o a standardized test, good luck. No pain, no gain. While some un-accredited or foreign university might do that, do not expect any star jobs with their diploma.

I agree that you probably want some real world experience before getting the MBA, but you probably should take the test soon, if only because your mind is primed for taking stupid tests.  And it is a stupid test.  More than any other test I've ever taken, it is a test you study for, then completely forget everything you learned once the test is over.  It is an exercise on how not to solve problems.\n\nHowever, you should probably wait until your finals are over and you can fully concentrate on the GMAT study material.  It will be detrimental to both the GMAT and your schoolwork if you try to cram them in at the same time.  Actually, thinking about it, you may want to wait until summer, or even the summer after you graduate.  Remember, you really should have at least 2-5 years under your belt before applying - top B-schools are looking for candidates with proven potential to be business leaders, and until you've worked and succeeded in leadership positions, you have not yet earned that distinction.

Your GMAT is high enough to make sure that admissions will at least look closely at your application.  If you have stellar recommendations, then you'll likely get an interview and a chance to explain why your academic history is lacking.\n\nNorthwestern is, obviously, a top-notch school and they turn away candidates that many other schools would do anything to get.  I wouldn't hold my breath, but you should be able to at least get a good look from them.

A GMAT of 740 is excellent, and higher than the average GMAT score at every American B-School.  The top American B-Schools want 30-40% of their students to be international students.  They want students to have four to five years of work experience.\n\nThe other things that they will care about are references, the quality of your previous education (it would help if you went to the top schools in India), references and your essays.  The essays are extremely important.\n\nYou seem to have many things going for you.  You have one thing that may go against you.  You already have an MBA.  You may want to contact the admissions offices of the schools that interest you to see if they will accept someone who already has a foreign MBA.  If they don't, then applying will be a waste of money.

You don't need work experience to do the gmat and it won't help you answer the questions.  However, you will find it helps (alot) to practice on old questions - they say practice won't improve scores and that the test is thoroughly objective but anyone who's done it will tell you that's rubbish.  \n\nDepending on the business school you choose, you may need work experience to get in.  You may also find the experience helpful to put what you're learning on the course into context.  Finally experience will also help when you come out the other end and are looking for jobs equipped with your sparkling new MBA.\n\nSo, in short, you don't need experience to do the GMAT or to get into some business schools but you might find it useful to get some experience first before embarking on an MBA.

I actually disagree - I think that the computer test is harder since you can't skip questions or review questions that you have already answered. While I didn't take the GRE, I did take the GMAT on the computer. I practiced a lot (with a test prep course) on the computer to make sure I was used to it. I also know that the computer version is given almost every business day throughout the US. The paper one is not.
