Hi David,
Recently when I was looking to some topics in the forum, I read a topic about study guide to reach to 720+. In this topic you told the author to increase his quality of studying. In the moment, when I read your great explanations, I asked myself how can I really meet this important requirement for my own study plan. I created a quality framework for myself, inspired by your comment, and it worked good BUT not good enough to completely satisfy me. In my framework, I set some parameters to measure my study quality, say labeling the questions in order to review them frequently, focusing on learning from every question that I solved and creating notes for ps, ds, rc, sc and cr and some other things. I also divide the week into days that I call it focus day. It means I completely focus on verbal or quant on various days in regards to my weakness or my study plan (e.g. for the last week I set Sat and Sun to verbal, Mon on quant and so on + one complete day off). As I said before I'm not completely satisfy and I am always seeking to find and improve my quality of studying. Can you please tell me how can I reach to a quality study? What I must do in order to be able to tell myself "now I am doing it with a good quality"? I don't want to to just read books and stuffs like before ( a little info about my past; I took GMAT twice one 540 and one 550 although I did lots of study and solved many problems from different sources) and still be on the same place. The matter is that I feel I am able to raise my score significantly this time and I am eager to do that. It will be my great pleasure if you could give me some advices regarding my concerns.
Regards.
