Study Guide

by chivo.says » Tue Jul 19, 2011 10:50 pm
Hello all,
I have been studying for GMAT for 15 days. I have taken the practice exam on www.mba.com website and I received about 510 (Without the time limit) Also, I have started reading Kaplan and OG edition 12. I only study 2.5 to 3 hours during the weekdays and and 2 hours on weekend. I was just wondering how many hours should I study and what books do you suggest for me to read. My goal is to hit 600 when I take my exam on October. Keep in mind, I will have to study less once the school start on August 22nd. Also, as you can see from my writing, I'm not a native speaker. I would really like to increase my reading comprehension, and any suggestion, I would highly appreciate it.

Best,
Chivo
