What i would suggest is if you can get hold of Manhattan series of books and read them.
Also try Power score CR bible for CR.
After which try attempting OG.
By then u would get a hang of what gmat really is.
Then u can do advanced problems from books like Kaplan 800 etc.
And then start taking cats and depending on where u stand u can make changes to ur schedule.

The constraint here would be Time. It all comes down to how much time u can invest depending on that i guess u should try chalking out atleast a basic plan. Find out what ur strengths n weakness are and allot enough time for improving areas ur weak in.

In my experience i have seen that its better to read SC grammar and CR notes and do some basic learning on the topics tested in quants , and then attack the OG.


Hope that helps.

Hi shalzz9,

Thanks a lot for giving CR reference as I was also searching for some material for CR.........

Googling on net i got scanned copy of CR bible which u mentioned at following sit
https://www.scribd.com/doc/6873084/GMAT- ... ning-Bible

This looks a bit old version so should i go for this or should I buy new book ???

@ silverlineinsky

I think its fine even if its an old version, coz u will get a basic idea and u can build on it.
And even after that u find it tough there are always lots of qns floating around the community wid expert replies
u can always learn from them.



@akankshaj
For SC Manhattan Sc guide really helped me.
I think there are online copies u can google them.

apart from that the Resource section of beat the gmat has a lot of collected notes
u can download some notes n go thru them

Which areas to attack depends on what ur strengths are.
What were u finding the toughest while doing OG ?? try that first.
