I am re-starting my prep after a 580 GMAT attempt. I am currently in the "planning" mode and would like to understand from experts and fellow students how much time one should factor for the new IR section. I know what most of you will be thinking....umm..well that depends on the level, expertise etc. I understand that time the allocated to a particular section is a function of ones ability level. But, considering IR is not that important for a year at least - how much time are people spending on this section?

5 to 8 hours is enough for IR. Just glance through OG13 book if you have, else GMATPrep problems and practice problems in GMATPrep + sample problems in mba.com. Understand how questions are asked and how you can save time in which type of questions.

Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

"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."
