Writing this post to seek guidance from the Experts and Fellow Gmat-ers on the 2-month long ambitious study plan. After sifting through various posts and inspiration stories - here's how I am planning to destroy the GMAT.
Target Score = 740+
The Day = July 10th (9 weeks to go)
Time spent per week = 30 hours
Starting - NOW!
Strength: Or should I say acquired strength is in SC, with Manhattan SC and OG13 up my sleeve.
Weakness: 560 in the first Manhattan Mock Test left me nervous and disappointed. With an ambitious target of 740+, I do realize that I have a very long way to go. Therefore, putting together a robust plan for the next 9 weeks - wherein I hope to work on well everything - concepts and speed, both of which need a lot of hard work.
