		<title>ManhattanGMAT vs. Manhattan Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Occasionally, we speak to someone who is confused between us and Manhattan Review.  The confusion generally lifts very quickly, when they realize that we are the &#8216;Manhattan GMAT&#8217; that their friend(s) mentioned to them (&#8221;the one that serves Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, Morgan Stanley, etc.&#8221;).   
It&#8217;s actually a surprise that it doesn&#8217;t happen [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bschools react to Scoretop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Again from Businessweek  we have Business Schools themselves reacting to the Scoretop affair.  A wait-and-see attitude seems to be the dominant theme until more facts and numbers are presented.  Certainly the number of affected individuals seems to be substantially smaller than the 6,000 identified students to date.

		<title>GMAT moves toward Palm Scanning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Were there many ringers taking the GMAT for other people?  
Apparently, GMAC isn&#8217;t taking any chances.  In the aftermath of the Scoretop affair, we now get news from the Wall Street Journal that GMAT test-takers will soon be subject to a palm scan.  
Though this seems a bit aggressive, the truth is [...]]]></description>

		<title>ManhattanGMAT Los Angeles pricing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ManhattanGMAT&#8217;s prep courses are ordinarily priced around the industry standard (despite the fact that we pay our Instructors $100/hr. + bonuses, about 4 times the prevailing rate).  The conspicuous exception is in the Los Angeles area, where MGMAT courses are only $1,090, about 25% cheaper than normal.
Why the discrepancy?  Do we like Los [...]]]></description>

		<title>Scoretop Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Businessweek is staying on top of the ongoing aftermath of Scoretop being shut down.  It&#8217;s certainly getting a ton of attention, as this article is currently the 2nd most read on the Businessweek site.  
Hopefully, you&#8217;re reading about Scoretop only as an interested observer!

		<title>GMAC comes down hard on Scoretop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Businessweek is following up on the recent enforcement action by GMAC against a website, Scoretop, that illicitly gave students access to &#8216;real&#8217; GMAT questions.  It&#8217;s very interesting reading.
Perhaps the most fascinating effect is that students who used the now-defunct site may be barred from applying to Business School, or even expelled if they&#8217;re already [...]]]></description>

		<title>GMAT Focus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I talk to students, it&#8217;s clear that the vast majority have not yet heard of GMAC&#8217;s new GMAT Focus math preparation tests.
As these tests are likely to help many students, and our write-up has been pushed off the front page, here it is again.  Check out the write-up, as any students that are [...]]]></description>
