Studying Strategy

by pradalove » Mon Sep 13, 2010 7:31 am
I started studying for the GMAT last October when I took a Manhattan GMAT 3 month prep class. I did all my homework and was scoring around a 670 towards the end.

Around January, I had to put my studying on hold because I got laid off. Now that I've secured a new job and am all settled in, I want to start studying again.

Where do you suggest I begin? I still have access to Manhattan GMAT's classes and online resources as well as strategy books. As far as a time frame, I'm pretty flexible and have no real deadlines to take it. However, I do aim to score above a 700.

I feel that in the past few months, I've forgotten everything! Please help!

Did you keep an error log of the questions that you've done? I think you should start by going through some old questions that you got right before to see whether you can still get it right. Or do diagnostic test to see which areas you need to most work on.

January is a long time ago so you have the benefit of most questions feeling "fresh".
