Hi everyone,

I just started studying for my GMAT. I signed up for private tutoring classes with Manhattan review and they are going well. But for some reason i feel like i should have signed up for classroom classes. My schedule makes it hard for me to study after work. I work in the suburbs and live in the city and commute approx around 3 hours everyday. By the time i get home, i'm super exhausted.
I am on my 3rd class with the tutor and I have 3 classes to go. For some reason doesnt seem like i am utilizing my tutor to the max. since I dont get to study everyday. I want to take my test at the beginning of December but looks like i dont have enough time. I am freaking out and overwhelmed with all the information that I need to know. I took my diagnostic test and lets just say that i did HORRIBLE. I want to get 700+ and need to work hard. I need help with in figuring out how to split my time among different concepts.
Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on how to start studying?
Someone pleaseee help me....

i would get manhattan gmat's 8 books and read them on weekends. they are excellent strategy books that would nicely complement your classes. and then do lots and lots of practice questions.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
