Yeah man, I am taking it in June too. Just starting to study this week. When did you start? I'm using the Manhattan set of books.

I just completed the Series 7 and 66 but I have a feeling the GMAT will be much harder.

Hi Mrisrith

Excuse me for the not knowing....what is Series 7 and 66 ?

I am using the Manhattan books and the OG 12 and 13...

I have completed Manhattan word problems, Manhattan Data sufficiency, finished SC from Manhattan and starting Manhattan CR today.

Looking forward to helping each other and get good results.

It's tough to answer your question without two pieces of key information.
- What's your target score?
- How are your GMAT skills currently?

To get an idea of the required prep time, take an official practice test: https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/download-fr ... tware.aspx
It may be the case that you're already scoring above your target score, in which case you may not need to prepare at all.
Or it may be the case that you're 450 points away from your target score, in which case you probably need more than just the OG13.

Cheers,
Brent

I should mention that, for most students, the OG alone isn't enough to fully prepare for the GMAT. Yes, the OG has hundreds of official (albeit retired) practice questions, but the book isn't big on providing GMAT-specific strategies for solving questions. By "GMAT-specific," I mean "fast and effective."
