Hey there, Im new to the GMAT and this Forum myself.

I plan on following the Beat the GMAT in 60 Days study plan from this site, which can be found here: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/gmat-guide

Basically what I`ve gathered from reading multiple study plans is first assess yourself with a simulated test to know where your weaknesses lie, then plan and study to correct those weaknesses and later (with less intensity) to pass over other areas as well.

Discipline and commitment are essential, meaning, develop a study plan and stick to it... I can vouch for this for the other certifications I took (TOEFL, PMP, Project+).

Good luck!

Read through the forums here and at gmatclub.com for some good suggestions. The Official Guide is a must have. Then I think the Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction Guide is great, as well as their math series books. For critical reasoning, I would go with the Powerscore CR Bible. Those should be good to get you started.

I recommend the OG and a careful error log. From there, you can decide what else you need.
