GMAT Strategy

Hi,

Y'day I scheduled my GMAT for June 1, 2012, 5:00PM. As a diagnostic test I took MGMAT free test and scored pathetic 610 [Q:44, V:31].

Request your invaluable suggestions on how should I go ahead.

I will be using the following materials:

1. MGMAT Books [for Quant, SC & RC]
2. Aristotle SC Grail
3. OG 12th edition
4. OG Supplement for Verbal
5. OG Supplement for Quant
6. Powerscore CR bible

Thanks in Advance. Pls help.

Regards,

Dude 610 on your first test and that too on MGMAT is not bad. But I am concerned with amount of time you have to appear for mock tests and most imp. post test analysis. I assume you will also spend at least some time on theory. Regarding the material, I too had brought Aristotle grail and other stuff but trust me, Manhattan strategy guides are all that you need. Sufficient and enough. In addition do have a look at some video sessions from Ron Purwal of manhattan. These videos are available for free on manhattan website. Also if you get time do have a look at OG 13 You can also order for additional GMAT Prep questions for $29 from GMAC website. That's all..you are set. All the best.

Thanks Ameya for the suggestion. I can spare daily around 3 hrs on weekdays and 6-7 hourson weekends for the prep.

Brief anout my profile:

Have rich Industry experience of 12years and currently working with one of the Big4 consulting firms [good part is Education has no age or experience bar!!!!!]. A Mechanical Engr. by education hence Quant is a bit OK but still have to work a lot. Looks like will have to put in considerable time and effort on Verbal.

Thanks and Regards
