Am I taking too long??

by artivilla » Mon Aug 31, 2009 6:56 pm
Hey, im going into junior year and planning to take it this winter break when i have 2 weeks off. I've applied for the manhattan gmat course and did 4 weeks staight on task, but then had an intern for 6 weeks so it was to hectic for me to make time and i slacked off, and now im back and hopefully I'll manage to do another 3 weeks in 2 weeks time before my school starts in september. And I hope to finish the last 2 weeks during the semester. I feel i prepare amazingly well but also that the fact that I'm taking so long, I might forget the material i learnt. What do you think should be my strategy to beatthegmat with a really really good score. And yes, I am aiming to apply to the hbs2+2 program.

Use note cards. If you learn something that is particularly difficult for you, make a note so that you review it later. I have read articles that people actually do retain and internalize more when they space out learning. So who knows, maybe you are doing it better :) Just make sure to make a note of parts that were tough for you so that you remember to look over it again.

thanks. yes, I've been making note cards. While I started again, it did help me when i needed to review previous material. They are time consuming but i think in the end it'll be worth the effort.
