Week 1 of my strategy

by punit.kaur.mba » Mon May 05, 2008 8:47 am
I decided not to make a very long term plan because at this point I really dont know where I stand in terms of GMAT performance. Also,I have not decided upon a date for my GMAT yet. But I know it should be within 5-6 months from now at the max.

My First step - Cracking the GMAT , Princeton review

Since I am weak in verbal, CR and since I do not have reading as my hobby, I am pretty sure I am not going to perform well in RC's too. I have seen that when I was trying out some RC questions earlier and MY 2 GRE Verbal scores are clear evidences of that. So my first target is Verbal section.

This week I plan to do, (hopefully finish) Verbal from Princeton. I have read good and bad reviews about this book. But at his point I am not looking at analyzing how good/bad a book is. The aim is to start and CONTINUE doing what I want to ;) and not leave it off in the middle.

So, every day 2 hrs Princeton Review SC,CR,RC (practicing questions untimed). Tests will be timed.
Shall do math a little just to keep in touch with it and not get frustrated with my performance in Verbal.

Guys, if you sincerely think this book is a waste of time, please do let me know.

Alright then, I shall keep posting frequently on how I am doing on verbal, and whenever I need any pointers.

Please reply to my posts and keep advising/motivating ... I really need this to keep my preparation going!

I think starting with PR is a good move. Good luck, and please keep this thread up! :)
