GMAT Preparation Courses

The only GMAT Strategies/Foundations of Mathematics course sequence in Tennessee designed and offered by an AACSB-accredited institution, providing 55 hours of comprehensive, fast-paced classroom instruction, and taught by a former MBA program instructor who has scored at the 99th percentile on the GMAT.

The fast-paced Massey School GMAT Foundations of Mathematics and Strategies courses are designed for both those taking the GMAT for the first time and those wanting to improve upon a previous score. Students planning to take this course who also need a basic math skills refresher should strongly consider enrolling in the 13-hour GMAT Mathematics Foundation course. The Foundation course does not directly address GMAT Problem Solving or Data Sufficiency questions; instead, it presents an overview of the arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry and data analysis terminology and content tested in the quantitative portion of the GMAT.

GRE Preparation Courses

The GRE Foundations of Mathematics and Strategies courses are designed for both those taking the GRE for the first time and those wanting to improve upon a previous score. Students planning to take this course who also need a basic math skills refresher should strongly consider enrolling in the 13-hour GRE Mathematics Foundation course. The Foundation course does not directly address GRE Quantitative Comparison or Problem Solving questions; instead, it presents an overview of the arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry and data analysis terminology and content tested in the quantitative portion of the GRE.

Miller Analogies Test (MAT) Strategies 

The Massey School MAT (Miller Analogies Test) Strategies course supplements a comprehensive overview of the format of the MAT, the construction and types of analogies tested on the MAT, and the areas of general knowledge that MAT analogies address with an extensive review of vocabulary, including selected Latin and Greek roots and affixes. Course lectures, technique demonstration/ modeling, and in-class drill will focus specifically on structural analysis of the types of analogies presented in the MAT, the categories of relationships these analogies encompass, order of correspondence in analogy structures, and execution strategies, including efficient time management, for maximizing performance on the multiple types of analogies presented in the MAT. Vocabulary development and strengthening will occur through outside-class study and in-class drill, including, for those who complete registration and acquire the text by mid-October, vocabulary quizzes (and answer keys) e-mailed to registrants each of the four weeks prior to the first class meeting.
