Getting Back To The OG

This has been a crazy week!!!  We have a blockpoint coming up at work, which basically means everyone is working overtime and things are getting crazy. Add that to film class and I haven't had much time for the GMAT.  However, I have been able to finish the Foundations book from Manhattan, which I would definitely recommend to anyone who needs a refresher.  

But now it's time to get started back on the OG. 

I'm planning on doing and studying 5 problems every other day.  I think it's essential to know as many of the problem types for Quant as you can.  It seems as although you will never see the same exact problem twice you most likely see at least a few similar problems.  This is why the OG comes in so handy.Written directly from old problems on the actual GMAT you get to see the possibilities of future problems.  And from what I've heard they don't change the problems around that much.  Plus, I gain a certain level of confidence with practice.  Essential for getting my 700+ score. 

I want to share my December calendar so you can kind of see what I'm doing with the OG.  Be aware though, at the end of the month is my favorite holiday so I've set aside quite a bit of time for family and friends.  Take a look...

   
Sorry that some of it gets cut off and is hard to read.

I know it seems like I'm taking quite a few days off, but I plan on stepping up the studying to a much higher level in January.  My overall goal is to have a 700+ score before summer starts.  

Hopefully, I can find that inner determination to keep focused.  It seems like in this day and age there is just way too much going on.  I definitely think it's possible though.

But I will leave you with that.  Have a great next week!

Adios
