Why do I do what I do?
The philosophy behind

Top-One-Percent The 99th Percentile Club
Exclusive GMAT-Prep for 99th percentile aspirants not for everyone!
Hi! This is Sandeep Gupta AND I am NOT a GMAT Trainer.
INSTEAD, I am the only GMAT Trainer in the world for exclusive 99th percentile (760) scores.
So if you genuinely want a lower than 760 score, please dont contact me. I am not the right training
partner for you.
99th percentile (760-800 range) happens to be the highest percentile score on the GMAT.
ONLY one percent people in the world get 99th percentile scores (thats why it is called the 99th
percentile).
BUT, in the last five years, 56% of all reported scores by my students have been in the 99 th percentile.
This means, my students success-rate is 56 times the average success-rate on the GMAT.
Can YOU get a 99th percentile score?
Even if you are at a level of 360, you can get a score of 760. Your current level doesnt matter. You may
be an absolute beginner; there is no problem even if you have forgotten what a prime number is or
what a pronoun means. BUT you have to be HAVE TO BE extremely sincere AND extremely
serious about a 99th percentile score. So please bear in mind the following:
You are not the right student for me if:
1. You are LAZY
2. You are COMPLACENT [Even if my life is screwed up, I am fine being mediocre (UGHHH!!!),
because I am too complacent to change anything.]
3. You dont mind belonging to the BOTTOM 99 Percent

I want you to strive for only top-one-percent excellence: The simple motto of your life must be:
Whatever I take up, I will try to beat the best in the world, not my neighbor, colleague, or friend. I
want only those people who want to belong to only the top-one-percent.
Something about me: I used to work as a pizza-delivery boy, a construction worker, a porter, a
waiter, and an auto-rickshaw driver. If you think that it takes some genius to get a 99th percentile
score on the GMAT, you are terribly mistaken. By every stretch of imagination, I had been an utter
failure throughout my school and college years (the highest percentage scored by me EVER until the
end of college was 47 in my 6th Std.).
LATER in life, I could make it to Harvard Business Schools 2 year full-time MBA Program (final
admit) because of my 99th percentile score (I have scored 770, 770, and 800 in the past), outstanding
storytelling abilities, and extremely persuasive communication skills. In addition to this, I dropped out
of IIMAs two-year full-time MBA program in 1996.
I want my LONG ROAD to be your SHORT CUT. I have spent more than a decade learning and
crystallizing my special techniques (OCTAVE, PRIME, ACT, ACED, and LINGO) to such a level that you
can consume everything in just 360 hours and get a 99th percentile score.
Why so much insistence on Top-One-Percent?

Roughly 300,000 people write the GMAT every year. Lets assume you score only 700 (which is equal
to 89th percentile. Check here.), your rank is about 33,000th. This means you are behind 33,000 GMAT
takers in a single year. Now imagine that you come 33,000th in a competition (or a race) or that you
are the 33,000th best employee (programmer, coder, accountant, salesperson etc.) of the company you
work for!!! A score of 700 on the GMAT means this level: behind 33,000 people in in a single year. If
this level is acceptable to you, I am not the right training partner for you. I dont want you to aim for
the 33,000th rank.
My message: dont settle for anything that is just about average, above average, good, or very good.
Strive for not even an iota short of exceptional excellence, a level of excellence where competition and
comparison cease to matter, where YOU are in a majority of ONE. Absolutely nothing short of TOPONE-PERCENT!
YOU might argue: Sandeep, I dont want a 760 score. My business school is ready to take me at a
score of 500-600-700. Why should I try so hard?
My answer: No problem. Just dont contact me if you target anything lower than 760. I dont
desperately want your wallet. I am not doing it primarily for the money there is a larger purpose in
my training. I dont mind losing a non-serious candidate. I am not after your purse if you dont fit
the bill YOU have to target 760 score.
BECAUSE to me, Top-One-Percent is not about GMAT score alone; it is a philosophy for living your
life. And I dont want to compromise this philosophy for some quick bucks. Think about the following
question:
2
If you are a programmer (or designer or accountant or salesperson), do you belong to the
absolute-best pool (among the top-one-percent) of programmers in the world?
Whether you are a banker, cook, sportsperson, or an MBA, the same logic applies: do you belong to the
absolute-best pool (among the top-one-percent) of people in the world?
You and I both know that the answer to the above question is a thumping NOOOO!
The thrill of belonging to the best of the best in the world cant be described in words. The feeling is to
die for: it is like winning your Olympic Gold. So if you have never been in the Top-One-Percent at
anything so far, make your start with a 99th percentile score on your GMAT. And your B-School
journey will become much easier. Are you game?
The practical rewards of a Top-One-Percent Score:

Life after any top 10 global B-School is surely worth craving (imagine your starting salary as
$150,000-$200,000 per year) and the journey starts with a high GMAT score. A high score gives you
the power to change the next 20-30 years of your life and career. With a great GMAT score, you will be
many miles closer to your top B-School dream. You will join the prestigious 99th percentile Club of
GMAT takers.
I feel privileged to be a part of possibly the biggest career decision of your life; it is definitely not easy
for a working professional to leave his / her job for one or two years; there is so much at stake
(money, loans, time, relocation, family, opportunity cost, and ROI). I fully understand the stakes and
believe that I can make the first lap of this journey much easier (and much more enjoyable) for you. So
when you train with me, you get to learn from someone for whom the GMAT has been an obsession
for two full decades. Here is my promise:
If you are a sincere GMAT taker, you cant find anything even one-tenth as good on this planet.
Start your GMAT Preps TODAY. The time to take the right decision is NOW.
The more you delay your GMAT, the more time you are wasting
in a non-satisfactory life and career.
T&C Apply:
At Top-One-Percent, T&C doesnt mean Terms & Conditions; rather it means
Transparency & Candor
Transparency: More than anything else, I believe in being absolutely honest, genuine, and truthful. To
me, my integrity and trust count for much more than money. You can check my official test-score
reports with unique links and authentication codes on our website. Even when we show our results in
our video testimonials on our website, we give the links to the students FB / LinkedIn profiles. You
can check everything all along the line.
3
Candor: We never give you any false hopes. NEVER EVER! If your efforts are not in sync with a 99th
percentile score, we will be absolutely frank and forthright with you. It is like: Even if you hire the best
fitness trainer in the world, it is useless if you dont exercise. We never believe in sugarcoating
anything. If you are doing badly in a mock test or if you seem insincere, you must be ready for a real
taste of some bitter medicine. If truth feels bitter, SO BE IT!!!

As a philosophy for life, I want you to declare a war against MEDIOCRITY. I want you to start HATING
the word mediocre.

Why Top-One-Percent GMAT (www.top-one-percent.com)?

I.
Why T.O.P.-GMAT and not any other institute?
1. If you are an Indian applying to a top business school, no matter how good your profile, a high
GMAT score (minimum 730 although even 730 is a borderline case actually you need 750+ to
be truly in the race) is an absolute must if you dont want to be rejected because of your LOW
GMAT score. Unless you have led teams in ten different countries, know more than five global
languages, have been a serial entrepreneur, have generated millions of dollars of funding for your
startup idea, have run five companies before, or have a recommendation from Mr. Narayan Murthy
etc., a score below 730 means NOTHING (for an Indian applicant) when it comes to applying to
the top 10 business schools in the world.
2. Sadly, NOT even a single GMAT-Training institute apart from Top-One-Percent in the entire
country trains you to get an exclusive 750+ score. The trainers at most of these institutes have
never even written the GMAT, let alone have scored in the 99th percentile (760). It is like hiring a
swimming instructor who has never been in the pool himself / herself.
3. This is where Top-One-Percent comes into the picture. I train you exclusively for a 760 score on
the GMAT and make sure that your LOW GMAT score doesnt become the biggest hurdle in the
journey of your dream education and career. Thats why I dont want you as a student unless you
want a 760 score.
4. I am so confident of my teaching, material, motivation, and personal help (doubt clearing,
counseling etc.) because I have never (NEVER EVER) scored less than the 99th percentile on any of
my GMAT attempts (my highest GMAT score has been 800/800). In addition, I have a perfect score
on the GRE (year 1996 old test pattern 2400/2400), SAT (year 2010 2400/2400), and IIM-CAT
(100 percentile score in 2002).
There is no other GMAT Trainer in the entire country having an official 99th percentile
score on the real GMAT (with an official proof a unique link and authentication code).
Still, if you wish to risk your career, go ahead and join absolutely third-rate training
elsewhere. Even if you wish not to join me, for your own benefit, insist upon an official
score report (with a unique link and authentication code) of the trainers at other institutes.
If anyone shows you an official score report of a 99th percentile score with a unique link and
authentication code, I will train you free-of-cost.
5. In addition to acing these tests myself, I have been teaching for these tests since 1996 (for more
than 18 years). In the process of interacting with more than 100,000 students over these years, I
ended up developing the smartest possible techniques (OCTAVE, PRIME, ACT, ACED, and LINGO)
and, over the last decade, have finessed these techniques to such a level that you just need to
give me a sincere effort of 360 hours to ensure a 760 score on your GMAT. You neednt reinvent
the wheel; I have done all the hard work for you. It is like getting an instant injection of my brain
into yours. When you train with me, you save precious time, money, energy, and effort required in
figuring it out all by yourself. With me, you get the 99th percentile recipe on a platter.

6. With admits to Harvard (didnt join) and IIM Ahmedabad (dropped out), McKinsey Domain
Consulting Assignments, and a flourishing speaking (I am the ace mentor at the Worlds Greatest
Speaker Training USA, at Public Speakers University London, and Professional Speakers
Academy London) and writing (I am the author of the bestselling book Million Dollar
Solopreneur) career, I still choose to teach the GMAT. For me, it is not a route to some quick bucks;
I just LOVE training for the GMAT. For the last 18 years, GMAT has been nothing short of an
obsession for me. I am driven by making the dream of absolutely the very best education in the
world a reality for you (I am sure that, for any working professional in the world, including even
the presidents of the United States, nothing is / was / has been more coveted than an MBA from
Harvard).
No kidding here: I train you to get admitted to the Harvard MBA.
II.
What Proof do I have that it works? Only eight business schools in the world are truly global
b-schools: Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Booth, Kellogg, MIT-Sloan, LBS, and INSEAD. The rest
are not truly global. We have students regularly selected to each of these schools. Check some of
the admits below:

Meet your other trainer:
Autrri Chakravarti
Director - B-School Admissions Consulting Division (at T.O.P.-GMAT) and Expert Faculty in Test-Strategy (at
T.O.P.-GMAT); B. Engg. and MSc Finance from Imperial College, London; MBA from London Business School.
Imagine experiencing life in all its kaleidoscopic colors by the age of 18; imagine the pain of having to leave
your home country at the drop of a hat and having to settle in a foreign land with no money; imagine going
through the daily discrimination in the eyes of the native English population while trying to find your moorings
in a foreign land; imagine working as a barista at a caf while your friends at the college are driving BMWs;
imagine convincing the Dean of Imperial College London to allow you to study without paying your tuition;
imagine opening a chain of restaurants (in metropolitan London) by the age of 21; imagine falling in love with a
Russian woman 5 years older and marrying her instantly; imagine getting an extremely coveted role in the
biggest Investment Bank in the world (Goldman Sachs); imagine writing the GMAT and making it to London
Business School by the sheer force of your compelling story; and imagine leaving all this success in a fit of
that I-am-not-loving-what-I-am-doing moment after attending the Know The World In 24 Hours (check
http://the-bold-you.blogspot.in/ - it will take your breath away more than 150 people have endorsed it by
writing personal comments) course run by Sandeep and imagine starting as a B-Schools Admissions
Consultant at T.O.P.-GMAT, and LOVING every moment of it !!!
No! This is not the script for a Hollywood Blockbuster this is Autrri incarnate in flesh and blood.
Versatility epitomized: Amateur gastronome (he cooks really well), budding wine connoisseur, serial
entrepreneur, contrarian investor, passionate storyteller ... these are some of the ways in which Autrri would
describe himself.
Autrri now calls Bangalore home, having spent the last 15 years living and working across the globe London,
New York, Boston, Moscow, Singapore. After high school at St. Xaviers, Kolkata, Autrri self-funded his studies
through a mix of scholarships, part-time work, sheer determination (and good fortune!) first at Ashbourne
College London (A-Levels); then Imperial College London (B.Engg. & MSc. Finance); and lastly at London
Business School (MBA).
Working at Goldman Sachs Asset Management (GSAM) and setting up his entrepreneurial ventures gave Autrri
insight into the inner workings of peoples minds and the influence of cultural / geographic / socio-economic
factors on the way people behave. Ultimately, Autrri realized that it was this core (intrinsic) understanding of
WHAT PEOPLE WANT that set him apart. He brings this philosophy to his role as an admissions consultant
and test-taking strategies specialist faculty at T.O.P.-GMAT. Autrri has produced some exceptional results in the
past; you can see the air of pride in his strides when any of his students makes it to a top B-School.
To unwind, Autrri keeps himself up-to-date with the happenings at Old Trafford; tunes into his insanely huge
(1960-90) rock-n-roll collection; watches Tarantino / Nolan / Scorcese / Coppola the list is endless ...
movies; and voraciously reads fiction.

GMAT-CAT (Computer Adaptive Test) insights

Exam lasts for about 4 hrs. A test of stamina, concentration, mental toughness and PACE! All these are more
important than mere PREPARATION.
CAT format: questions & answers differ for each test taker
CAT format: applicable only to Quant and Verbal Sections; the AWA / IR sections are separately graded
Correct more difficult question / more marks Incorrect Easier question / fewer marks
Harder questions count more than the easier ones

position / location of those questions.
You cannot skip a question; you cant return to any previous question; you cant change an answer
Must finish the sections! Strong penalty (up to 50 points per section) for not finishing any section
There are a few experimental questions in each section

Slow pace, so towards the test you tend to have too
many wrong answers in a row.

10. Avoiding four-hour long simulations
IV. How are we really different?
Other GMAT-prep companies in the country offer training only in 500-550 level rangebe it competence,
content, class, candor, or convictiontheir training falls short of the rigor required for 99th percentile scores.
We believe that The Official Guides cater to 500-550 level (junk); despite the fact that the OGs are irrelevant
when it comes to 99th percentile scores (760-800 score range), instructors at other institutes treat them as the
Holy Grail (the be all and end all) of GMAT-Preps; the results are disastrous.
We strongly believe that the GMAT should NOT be considered an Adaptive Test but rather a linear test. A
million problems can be kissed away with just a small mindset-shift.
We strongly believe that there are no time-sucker questions on the GMAT, only suckers who fall for them. If you
have the right approach, every problem on the real-GMAT can be solved in less than 90 seconds. If you take more
than 90 seconds on a particular problem, the question is not tough; your approach is definitely WRONG.
A lot of students are made to believe that studying for the GMAT means spending 90% of their preparation time
on Sentence Correction (SC) nothing could be a bigger disservice to yourself. SC is extremely crucial, but not
at the cost of Reading Comprehension (RC).
13
The most crucial area for the GMAT is RC, which is given the least attention by students and faculty alike. Each
RC question counts as much as 3 times each SC question and each CR question. So if your RC accuracy is not near
100% under time constraints in the 4th hour on the test (when your concentration is likely to be at its weakest),
you will not cross the coveted 700 mark. RC is the most crucial test area woefully neglected by everyone.
If you want a high score, you have to make sure you dont make consecutive mistakes. Again, RC becomes the most
crucial area; if you dont do well on a specific passage, you are likely to get 3-4 consecutive wrong answers.
As per GMAC, three consecutive mistakes anywhere on the test can pull your current score down by 80-100
points. The position of the questions doesnt matter.
We tell you the Test-Makers perspective as opposed to the Test-Takers perspective. Every difficult problem
on the real GMAT (at the highest level) is made in such a way that wrong answers seem more attractive than the
right answer. The test-makers know exactly how an average human brain thinks and falls for traps. Training for
such traps constitutes more than 50% of our training.
We strongly believe that the GMAT is not a test of Math or English; it is a test of reading and reasoning. Quite
often, people who are exceptionally good at English dont manage a high Verbal Score and people who are
exceptionally good at Math fail miserably on the Quant Section.
Ours is a NO-FLUFF-ALL-STUFF course.
o You will not find that out of the 5000 pages of material given to you, only 500 pages are worth reading.
o If you attend a 3-hour class, you will find value in each of the 180 minutes. You will not feel that more
than 150 minutes were spent discussing something that you could have managed yourself / that you
knew in advance / that didnt add any value.
We wouldnt want to hear any excuses. If you come to the classes unprepared or without finishing your
homework, you will have an extremely frustrating experience. BUT if you are the serious GMAT contender, you
cant find a better course anywhere on this planet.
Special copyrighted techniques for each of the subject areas: OCTAVE (RC), PRIMEX (SC), ACT (CR), ACED (DS),
and LINGO (PS). No other institute in the world has such effective strategies to crack each of the test areas.

We will cover each of the GMAT areas Verbal: Reading Comprehension (RC), Sentence Correction (SC),
Critical Reasoning (CR); Quantitative: Data Sufficiency (DS), Problem Solving (PS), Analytical Writing
Assessment (AWA - Analysis of an Argument), and Integrated Reasoning (IR) - in detail.
Every batch will be a weekend batch demanding 4 months of serious dedication from your side. For the first 8
weeks, you will have classes every weekend for 6 hours (3 hours on Sat and 3 hours on Sun). Each of these classes
will be homework driven. We focus exclusively on top scores - the 99th percentile range (760-800 range). To this
effect, our classes demand an unparalleled seriousness from your side. Our classes are very intensive and
rigorous and demand an effort of at least 20 hours per week (on average, at least 3 hours per day, assuming you
are working). If you are not working (or are on a break), we want you to put in 8-10 hours every day.
After your classes are over: You will need to follow an assisted-self-study-plan to reach the level of finesse and
perfection required for a 99th percentile score. We will share this plan with the material once your classes are
over. This takes 45-60 days assuming you study 3 hours each day.
We will provide you with all the content: Basic and Advanced Concepts including concept books, classroom
content - including the latest 750-800 level questions, elementary practice, advanced practice, 700-800 level
question bank, latest collection of questions from the real GMAT, and Computer based Test Series etc. In addition
our own content, we will provide you with all the usual content: the Official Guides, and any other content
available anywhere in the world. All the content related to the GMAT around the world will be extended to you in
soft copy. There is not a single resource on the GMAT that you will not have access to.
We have all kinds of personal support available: counseling, doubt-clearing, repeat classes, backup for missed
classes, and admission counseling (B-School Admissions Process Guidance). The validity of the classroom
program is 4 months from the date of joining.
An absolute guarantee that the GMAT will not test you on anything outside of the course content covered here.
Each type of question on your test will have been covered in detail. Even at the highest level (99 th percentile), not
even one question will seem alien to you (if you do all the content as advised).
Most important: the right mental training for the right execution ... the most critical part of this training.
All material (Concepts, Theory, Practice, Test Series, Extra Help etc.) to be provided by us. You are not supposed to
refer to anything else at all.
If you need some special material (such as help from absolute basics in Math or Grammar or some challenging
practice content in any area), please ask us. We will provide you with all such content. Dont study anything else
at all.
Please solve our TOP-GMAT Challenge (30 questions) on our website www.top-one-percent.com before you come
for our classes.

Expectations from YOU
Results come only when you put in the effort. A 610 student also sits in the same classroom in which a 780
student sits. So the difference is not in instruction / service quality. The difference is clearly in the efforts put in by
a student. Our training program works only if you work. No MAGIC MANTRAS You have to put in a lot of hard
work.
We are committed to a 760 score for you. ARE YOU COMMITTED ENOUGH? If your level of commitment is for a
500 score, there is going to be only frustration.
Keep pace with the classes no backlogs.
The course is homework-driven. Do all homework in time there is no exception to this condition.
Understand the nature of the test and study accordingly, e.g., studying on the computer screen is better than
studying on paper.
Do all the material as and when suggested. Dont read any extra material unless suggested by us.
This course is not for you if:
You are not serious about your efforts OR if you look for a quick-fix.
You dont want to do the homework before the classes. There is no excuse for not finishing the homework we
wouldnt want to hear any excuses: Work pressure, project, deadline, submission, release, travel, etc. PLEASE
DONT JOIN if you are not ready to do the requisite homework.
You are addicted to studying on paper. As per the exam requirement, you have to study on a computer.
! Core Values!
Class: We are the best-in-classexcellence defines us! Be assured of an absolutely world-class training here. Every faculty
member here (or ever joining us in future) must have scored a 99 th percentile score on the real GMAT. NOBODY ELSE
this is a guaranteeNOBODY ELSE can satisfy this requirement anywhere else in India.
Candor: No false hopesyour results are commensurate with your efforts. Our efforts are the same for each student. If
you dont put in the effort, we cannot do anything for you.
Commitment: There is only one objectiveto help you improve your score on the GMATwe always go that extra mile.
The same is expected of yoube absolutely committeddo whatever is asked of you.
Content: One of the biggest differentiators here is the CONTENTwe have handpicked all the latest, most relevant, and
absolutely cutting-edge contentthe most important ingredient in your success. Make sure you finish all that is asked
of you.
Conviction: We know for a fact that our methods work phenomenally well but that for a non-serious student, we are not
the right training partners.

Success Ingredients on the GMAT
Conviction the belief that you can get a 99 th percentile score check this BELIEF CHANGE video that shows
how, on the very first day, the students were driven to aim for a 99th percentile check it here
Commitment fight to the finish no matter what dont leave it in between
Consistency daily input rather than bouts / bursts of preparation
Concept mastery to such an extent that practicing further doesnt improve you to the extent that you know
for sure that you are right before checking the answer to the extent that if you have enough time, you will NOT
get even one answer wrong
Content mastery not mindless finishing
o Practice with the right content
o No mindless practice practice / fix / practice / fix / practice / fix the ideal pattern
o No irrelevant content
o Test makers perspective (psychometrician how to make the wrong choice seem more attractive than
the right choice) / Traps
o Pattern based preparation
o Quality over quantity. A lot of analysis and deliberation on each question
o Must not check the solution to any problem unless you completely give up. When you believe: Even if I
have one more hour to solve this question, I wont be able to solve it. then it is the right time to refer to
the solutions.
o The idea is to fix your weaknesses, not celebrate your strengths
GMAT Specifics:
Techniques / Approaches OCTAVE / ACT / ANT / PRIME / LINGO / ACED

o Get the answer in less than 90 seconds
o Knowing that you are right versus being right but not being sure.
Stamina to sit for four hours at absolutely peak-concentration level. (Remember the best-concentration time of your
life. You have to repeat that occasion in terms of concentration).
o Concentration Four-hour RC / CR practice with LSAT content under strict time-limits
Pace / Pacing
o Consecutive mistakes
o RC being more important (ensure 100% accuracy on RC, no matter what)
o Pacing charts
Quant (10Q done, 55 minutes left / 20Q done, 35 minutes left / 30Q done, 15 minutes left for the
last seven questions, you must have more than 14 minutes remaining).
Verbal (10Q done, 58 minutes left / 20Q done, 41 minutes left / 30Q done, 24 minutes left for the
last eleven questions, you must have more than 22 minutes remaining).
o Finishing the test severe penalty for not finishing
Mental toughness
o Exit strategy maximum 2 minutes per question
Execution
o Adaptive nature of the test it is a disaster if it keeps playing on your mind
o Nerves if you are the one who freaks out at the thought of an aptitude test, you need to train your mind.
o No guessing on the level of a question (I wonder whether it is a 500 level or a 750 level question? is
disastrous thinking) / No guessing whether a question is experimental or real
o Mind-game the exam is out to play a serious mind-game with you. It is your job to defeat its intention.
o Ensure good sleep the night before the test
o Ensure that your routine / habits are not disrupted
