GMAT Exam: Online VS Classroom Preparation
The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test)
is a 3½-hour standardized exam which is designed to predict how test-takers
will perform academically in MBA (Masters
in Business Administration) programs. GMAT scores are used by graduate business
schools to make admission decisions.
You
might sometimes see the GMAT referred to as the GMAT CAT. The acronym CAT stands
for Computer Adaptive Test.
Actually, only two of the exam's four sections (Quantitative and Verbal) are
computer-adaptive, meaning that during those sections only the test adapts to
your ability level as you go.
Quantitative Test: - Quantitative Tests evaluates our numerical
ability and problem-solving skills which defer according to the various tests
like CAT, MAT, GMAT, etc.
Verbal Test: - Verbal aptitude tests evaluate our ability
to spell words correctly, use correct grammar, understand the word
meanings and interpret detailed written information.
Why On-line Classroom?
An Online
the classroom is a teaching and learning environment where students can interact, exchange
their ideas, communicate, view and discuss presentations, and engage with
learning resources while working in groups, all in an online setting. The
medium is often through a video conferencing that allows multiple users to be
connected at the same time through the Internet, which allows users from
virtually anywhere to participate.
There
are several criteria that enhance On-line Classrooms more than
ordinary Classroom preparation. These features show the difference between the
topics.
Convenient: Online
education offers students the opportunity to study whenever it fits into their
lives. This makes the student more convenient than an ordinary classroom by providing
the opportunity to study when you’re feeling your best, letting students learn
when their children are occupied or napping, and allowing frequent travelers
to study no matter where they are, convenient online training has made it
possible for nearly anyone to go back to school.
Interest: Online classrooms are actually a great entrance to the world
of many interesting things. Online classroom maintains a drastic level of
features such as more audible, learning through videos and music, the involvement
of graphics, animations, and also PowerPoint. While going to the normal
classroom, the students who have weaknesses in their skills may not even get the chapters
well. Sometimes the lecturer with low sound may even make less audible to the
student sitting backside of the classroom. Meanwhile, other cases like teachers
with less teaching skill make the entire class give up their interest.
Flexible: Flexibility means that you can do your coursework around your
work schedule and family life. Rather than needing to attend a 9:00am class
every week, you can, for the most part, choose when you study, so long as you
submit your work by the deadlines given.
Discipline: Discipline in the online classroom is referred to by gaining self-discipline to each and every student which makes our mind free from noises and all. In the case of Normal classrooms, we are all experienced with some irritating factors like the whispering of other students, noises from outside, etc. which all create an impact on our concentration towards the class.
