Hi Everyone:

It’s been about a year since this article was published, but I wanted to provide an update on the forum. Overall, it’s doing VERY well. We’re approaching 11,000 registered members and 20,000 posts this month. Traffic has grown month over month over the last year; according to Alexa, Beat The GMAT is now the most visited GMAT forum in the world. To date, we’ve distributed nearly $10,000 in scholarships!

This past year has been great, but I’m expecting even better things for the next year! I’ll keep you posted, thanks!

Thanks again, Ramit, for featuring my forum on your Friday Entrepreneurs series. Site traffic has doubled since you’ve posted my interview on your website!

You’ve really helped me get the word out about Beat The GMAT!

Oops, that was dumb of me. I said that Eric got his forum popular after just 5 months, when actually, he’d been running a GMAT blog for a year before. My bad.

That’s great that you post information that is extremely relevant, especially to a younger demographic. Besides surfing through finance blogs, preparing for the GMAT is something else that I have been researching. Keep it up!
