Check out my GMAT blog: http://beatthegmat.blogspot.com

Read my first posts to see how I started my GMAT prep. If I were you, I would spend some time reading through the lessons in the Princeton Review book--PR is a great introduction to the test. Take some time to read through the lessons in all your text books to ground yourself on GMAT concepts.

Best of luck! You can do it!

I was thinking of finishing the PR book first then arco math review and then start using OG guide.

Whats the best way to use OG guide , I only have month to prepare.

Hi smartguy:

Check out these two posts:

There are some good tips here for using OG tactically as well as putting together a study plan under one month.

Best of luck!
