Hello!
I have done all the course work in the 60 day GMAT study plan with the Manhatten books, and I know I need to focus much more on my quantitative, specifically word problems, fractions/decimals/percents, and geometry. I am currently in the 40% percentile:( I am also using the Kaplan GMAT pocket book, along with the flash cards provided in the 60 day program - these are great to refresh on aspects.
I'm looking to figure out how best to approach the last 20 days? Need help with a day-to-day plan so I can absorb the maximum amount of information before test day.
If I am much stronger on verbal and feel good in that area, but how do I balance both quant and verb practice so that I keep up the momentum right now and build upon that? Do I just spend time reviewing all the wrong answers during the last 40 days of questions? Do I do anything else? I am planning on reading once again and reviewing chapters in the three areas I struggled the most with in quant. I am also going to write an Essay every second day, just to feel super confident going into the exam. I have received strong scores on previous, so it's more just a practice and build stamina/confidence.
As well, I am not sure which practice exams to purchase as I feel Kaplan's and Veritas are not accurately scoring me ( always have way higher scores), so do I purchase Manhattan, despite having taken them already (a year ago) as they seem the most realistic or is there another brand to purchase? Can you please provide guidance on this too?
Thanks!
