I am new to the site and though I have looked at some of the site I haven’t looked at everything so I may just be missing it, but I have a suggestion for something to add to the site.
You have provided a good list of the resources you used and throughout your daily log of study prep you describe what sections of what book/program are good for what types of question.
What would be a good addition would be a summary of what section/chapter of what resource is good for each type of question. Additionally a summary of what part of what software is good for review/instruction/testing for each type of program.
It would be a list of each type of question, all the way down to which sub-type of question, for instance quant questions about averages, or quant questions about algebra… and a corresponding listing of what chapter or sequence of chapters to study. For instance you mentioned that Kaplan was worthless for word problems but fantastic for Math Reference.
Additionally a summary of little nuggets like this: “I later decided that PR's strategy is correct after doing further research. Write as much as possible for your AWAs!”
This along with your other downloads would be worth purchasing.

This is Official announcement section where site admin reports about the important announcements.
We have separate section for Suggestion & Feedback!
I hope you'll find more resources on this website.
Generally it takes less than a week to completely familiarise with site content.

I think it's a little confusing because Eric doesn't state to offer feedback in another section. From his original post here, it sounds like to offer suggestions on resources right in this thread.aim-wsc wrote:Oh dear!hamilton1776 wrote:Why does my post keep being deleted?

Eric, perhaps you can clarify your post a little bit.

Yup, just asking for additional resources to add to this new directory. That's all.
