Hi All,
With Corona Virus hitting the world, GMAT centers have stopped conducting the test and since i am in the second month of my preparation.
What do you advice, should i halt with my preparation or use this downtime to work more questions & concepts ?

Hi ogmega,
Right now, it's unclear when the Testing Facilities will reopen and administer the GMAT (the current information states that facilities will reopen in about 1 month, but that may change). Thus, if you were hoping to take the GMAT in the next couple of weeks, then your plans clearly have to change. Depending on your overall timeline and goals though, it might be best for you to simply continue on studying (especially if you were not planning to take the GMAT for at least another couple of months).
Before I can offer you any additional advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) On what dates did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

Agree with Rich. Now is a great opportunity to focus on the GMAT. It may seem to focus during these tough times, but in the scheme of things we should all be spending more time at home which gives us more time to study. Best of luck!
