Richard's here.....

Although Amazon promised me he'd be here next week, I already picked up my copy of Richard Montauk's guide to getting into top MBA programs today from the postoffice where he was left after he didn't quite fit in my mailbox. After taking care of my normal Saturday household chores, I've started dipping into it, and I'm reasonably impressed. Scared, but impressed. Getting the distinct feeling that I'm too late with some things (ok, I'll admit: most stuff) like recommendations, transcripts and GMAT prep. But I'm convinced that good advice is mainly meant for 'other' people.... ;-)

I've started with some GMAT revision (concentrating on the math part), and bought a copy of Princeton Review's Math revision for GMAT for the amazing price of 7,50 euros. Tip of the week for any Dutchies looking for cheap GMAT prep books: check out the American Book Store (to be found in A'dam and The Hague), they have them on sale sometimes.
