These reminders DO NOT contain the links to the live sessions.If you are not receiving the reminders, please check your spam (or junk) folder and also the ‘Promotions tab’ (applicable to Gmail users).

    There are different pre-requisites for each Live Session. They have to be completed before attending the Live Session. You can find the details about the pre-requisites in the pertinent study plans. Live Sessions are aimed at teaching the application of concepts learnt by student (in the pre-requisites) by applying the concepts on GMAT like questions. Live sessions DO NOT cover the concepts. The concepts are covered in the corresponding  online part of the course (the pre-requisites).

     

    You can also check the pre-requisites directly from your course dashboard. For example, for the CR1 session, just click on Live Sessions (on top right corner from your dashboard) -> CR Sessions -> CR 1 -> Pre-Requisites and a separate page shall open with the details.
