I plan to beat the GMAT

[aloma]

I hope to take the GMAT in Dec 2009, and plan for a score of 750. My goal is a Phd in Business at Harvard.

A little brief about me. I have a Bachelors in Computer Engr, a Msc in Computer Science, and about 4 years working experience in the Oil & Gas Industry.

Wish me well, and I will try to keep you updated as my plan rolls off.

Good luck!

Ok, So I took March 4, 2009 as Day 1 of my 750-HBS Plan!

I spent 3 hours going over posts by all the guys who scored 750 and above on this forum and also on https://outbeat-the-gmat.blocked/.

Based on those posts, I ordered the following books;

Doing Grammar

Cracking the GMAT with DVD, 2009 Edition (Graduate School Test Preparation)

Kaplan GMAT Premier Program, 2009 (Book & CD-ROM)

The PowerScore GMAT Critical Reasoning Bible: A Comprehensive System for Attacking the GMAT Critical Reasoning Questions


Kaplan GMAT Advanced 2009-2010 Edition: Intensive Prep for Top Students (Kaplan Gmat 800)


8 Manhattan GMAT Preparation Guides, the 3 Official Guides for GMAT Review, and the Manhattan GMAT Test Simulation Booklet.

My plan (God-willing) is to spend 2 hours daily during the week ,and 3 hours on weekend days working on th GMAT prep (except travel days as I do a lot of travel in my line of work).
I am fairly strong in Verbal/SC, so my focus for the initial 4 weeks will be on my Quantitative.
