Assaf,
First, let me make something clear – I don't have any stocks in KIDUM my mail was a sincere gesture to advise a fellow MBA candidate.
Second, most of my friends did study in GMAX and their average is quite impressive (ranging 540-730, most of them on the 700 level).
Thirdly, all of the data I stated above is based on MY personal experience and only on facts. Although, I spent some time in GMAX I do not share your positive impression, though it is only mine.
Finaly, I don't regard GMAX or KIDUM as a matter of fact, as the best places to prepare for the GMAT, as I mentioned in my previous post. But after MY research and my impression from both schools, I truly believe that the better school between them is KIDUM. Once again, as I stated before, retrospectively I believe the best way is studying alone to the test. Regarding the networking I completely disagree – most of the peers in MY class at KIDUM were aiming toward MBA in Europe and in North America.
Once saying that, I wish you good luck in Chicago U. (MAZAL TOV for getting there, it's one of my top choices).
Eyal.
