Hi fighter_13jan,

Before you put together a study plan, we need to define your situation a bit more. For the schools that you are considering, what are the application deadlines? That information will help you determine how much time you have to study.

Next, you should take a FULL-legnth practice CAT test, so we can get a sense of your abilities. You say that you want to focus only on Verbal, but we don't know how strong your Quant skills are yet. You can download 2 free practice CATs from www.mba.com. A full CAT takes almost 4 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take the entire test. You should report back here with your scores.

Most Test Takers need 3 months (or more) of consistent study to hit their goals. The GMAT is a consistent, predictable Test though, so you can train to CRUSH it.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

"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."
