Alright, here we go...
So, all-in-all, I'm off to a fairly good start (even though I probably should have taken the GMAT already). I've actually been studying for the GMAT on and off for a couple of months now, but just haven't had the confidence to really get down to business. Now, I think with some new study materials (Manhattan is the best!!!) and a new study partner, I really have the focus to get through the long hours I need for studying.
Oh, and by the way, I'm probably one of the most average standardized test takers I've ever known! So, if I can do it anyone can.
Here's my planned schedule with the new study materials from Manhattan.
Week 1&2 - Book 1, Number Properties
Week 2&3 - Book 2, Fractions, Decimals, & Percents
Week 4&5 - Book 3, Equations, Inequalities & VICs
Week 5&6 - Book 4, Word Translations
Week 6&7 - Book 5, Geometry
Week 7, 8, 9, & 10 - Last 3 books - CR, RC, SC
Planned GMAT Date: August 21st, 2010
That's it for now folks, but on my next post I'll be updating how my first week went and getting into what MBA schools I plan on applying to and why.
Cheers
Hey! It's Sanam. I'd love to know how this goes for you. I'm using Kaplan study materials and am having a hard time focusing, but keep me posted and I might have to get Manhattan myself.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment Sanam! With the Manhattan books it seems like nothing is skipped. In fact, after almost finishing the 1st book already I almost feel inclined to take the actual Manhattan class. ($1400 though...yikes)
ReplyDeleteYo! Found your blog through Google and I am taking the GMAT myself on June 11th. Manhattan is certainly head and shoulders above the other two: Kaplan and Manhattan. The class sounds like it might be good, but with 4 months, I am sure you'll do just fine without the class.
