70 Days Enough?

by emw13 » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:32 pm
I have about 70 days to study for this bad boy. I took PP1 a few months ago just to see where I would be at and scored a 640 (I forget the breakup). I wanted to get someones input on whether that would be enough time to crack 700+, and also ask the number of hours I should plan to invest. I literally have ALL day of EVERY day to study as I am on summer break.

My current materials are:

Princeton Review
Kaplan GMAT
Kaplan 800
Manhattan Sentence Correction
and of course, OG 11, OG Verbal and OG Math.

Also, if anyone could point me in the direction of a good study plan, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

I think that 70 days is a good amount of time to see an increase. How large that increase is will depend on many factors, but you should feel confident that you're giving yourself enough time to prep. As for a study plan, I'd recommend starting out with your prep guides to learn the tricks and strategies, then moving to the OG to work problems. I like to start with verbal since that usually takes people more time to master, but if you're really rusty with math you might want to start with that first.

Good luck, and return with more specific questions when you have them!
