Less than 60. Would 30 be best? Post Fri May 27, 2011 8:18 am
Hi Brent.
Thanks for the study plan. I am actually taking the test on July 16. Do you think you can send me the days to get caught up to my actual day of study? I have already completed the list of items for today. It might be best to send me the 30 day plan. I will let you make this call. 

Thanks again!
Jaclyn

Hi Jaclyn,

Sorry, but we're not set up to send more than 1 email/day.
A 30-day Guide is a good idea - perhaps I'll start working on that soon. Probably won't be soon enough to help you though.

Sorry,
Brent

Hi Brent,

I'm in the same situation as Jaclyn regarding the 30 days of study time. I'm taking my GMAT on the 26th of July and although I have started prep courses a few weeks ago. Massive fear and procrastination has gotten the best of me, and I am now starting to seriously get down to work today, leaving me with a little over 30 days of study-time. Add on to that the fact that I'm doing this in addition to a full work-week with crazy timings. Is there anything you can suggest that would help me out in terms of creating a proper study plan for the month to come? I feel a bit lost in terms of organizing myself. I know that I have to massively focus on Quant since my verbal is quite strong and my Quant is unbelievably week but I'm not sure how to manage my time. Is it better to organize study days according to concepts or just to start through the OG on q.1 and just keep going?

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi there,
I have also kind of the same problem, and It would be great for me if I can skip the first days of quantitative part and I'll start from the verbal, since my quantitative stands strong. Maybe the good idea could be designing for different focuses on GMAT study, like verbal focus or quant focus as there is one in the study plans.
Kind Regards
Arash

These are really good ideas.
At the moment, we're not set up to send out the emails any faster, but we will keep your suggestions in mind.

Cheers,
Brent
