I am using the MGMAT set of 8 strategy guides. My goal score is 500 and my exam date is 5-6 weeks away. My last GMAT score was 460 and I need to move up 40 points. This is a lot of material to cover in a short amount of time. My plan was to read the first part of each guide, do all the drills, and skip the advanced sections unless I finish early and have time to come back to the advanced parts. My goal was to finish one guide per week and two guides if they are shorter.

Thoughts on how to maximize my time?

Sentence Correction and the Advanced Quant Guide are the biggest money makers.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
