Verify accuracy of information
What: Before clicking on Save Profile details, you will have to verify everything that you have entered
Why this is important: When you take the GMAT, you can be denied entry in case there are differences between the information you have filled in your profile, and the information in your official documents. Triple check!
Choose a venue
What: You pick the most convenient test venue for your GMAT
How: After filling your personal information, the website will suggest a list of nearby test venues. Free test slots are a function of both venue and date, so you might have to try a few different ones.
Choose a date
What: This is the most important part of registering for the GMAT. Make sure you check with your Jamboree mentors for the best possible date!
How: Two primary factors are to be kept in mind. First, your chosen date should leave you enough time to complete your preparation, and to get your mock test scores to the right ballpark. Second, your chosen date should be at least a month before your first application deadline, so that there are no last minute scrambles. You can reschedule your appointment for an additional 20% fee, but it is best to get it right the first time
Choose a time slot
What: Choose your time slot (morning or afternoon) according to the time of day at which you are most alert, mentally.
Payment
What: The final step in registering for the GMAT is paying the appointment fee of $250. Once this is done, and you agree to the test policies, you are good to go!
Once you register for the GMAT, the stage is set for a huge career step. Of course, you have to achieve your full potential in your final performance, and optimise your test prep.
My counselor (Shagun Kansal) was very good. She helped me with every single thing since the start. She explains very well. Professional, prompt and well-spoken.

I joined Jamboree for GRE in August 2019. My classes are ongoing and I can already feel my confidence building up. Their methodology is highly supportive and independent at the same time. So you don't feel nervous solving tests alone but you are always backed up with as many explanations as you require by the faculty. My brother started his SAT training here too and has been performing exceptionally well. By the end of his training, I m sure he will secure a good university and so will I. Jamboree turned out to be one of the most professional and intricately planned (materials and study plans) training centres and that's what drove me to join it.

I started admission counselling services along with GRE classroom preparation course from Jamboree Education in 2020. I am very thankful to Jamboree Education. They appointed Mr. Sumit as my counsellor who helped me a lot during my process. He reviewed my profile and helped me improve it. My SOP’s and LOR’s were composed very well. The writer which was appointed for me was Ms. Neha and she helped me a lot in improving my profile. The process of admission is not that easy according to me but Jamboree made it look like very convenient to me. I would highly recommend Jamboree Education to students who are willing to go abroad.

The faculty is amazing and experienced, specially Shreyas Sir. The material that they provide is sufficient and taking their mock tests really helps to understand what the GMAT will be like. Overall, good experience. If you follow the advice of the faculty, you will definitely score above 700.

I prepared for GRE and TOEFL with Jamboree. The faculty was always available for doubt clarification, performance review and guidance. Their material for GRE is quite vast and covers all the types of questions, the class schedule is also flexible. Altogether, it was a good experience and helped me score a really good score in GRE.
