Hi Nasir,

At the moment the 60 Day Study Guide does not include topic-by-topic references to the BTG Premium Practice Questions.
I would use the Practice Questions during the last 2 weeks, where each day is devoted to tackling practice questions (once you have completed all of the content during the first 6 weeks)

The link you included does not direct me to a book. Can you repost?

All the best,
Brent

Thank You Brent for your reply : i feel really excited about 60days guide. seems really helpful.

i am on day-5 though i didn't get my Kaplan book, ( i'm sure the book would be same as you suggested, there was only price difference as Amazon is selling for $69 and Kaplan store sold me for $39 ). right now im only working on OG and OG-Quant review.

About Practice question: i have upgraded for premium account, so what would you be suggesting, should i go for Practice questions too or should i wait until few weeks ?

About OG: do i need to check each and every explanation or only the incorrect answers ?

about Official Guide 12th Edition - Error Tracking Tool : i don't understand the " performance summary file "
how do i use it ?

P.S : i will be corresponding in the same thread for future problems/questions/feedbacks.

Thank you

Nasir

Hi Nasir,

I would wait until you have covered all of the math topics before tackling the math questions on the BTG Practice Questions. The same applies to the verbal content.

There are 2 weeks of practice time scheduled into the Study Guide, so this will give you plenty of time for this.

As far as OG questions go, I think it's useful to review the solutions to all math questions since there are 2 or more ways to solve each question, and you may learn a better approach for some question types. For verbal, you can just check the solutions for the questions you answered incorrectly.

Don't worry about the Performance Summary. We need to do a little work on that.

All the best,
Brent
