Too Much Material

Guys, I want to try something different instead of taking the conventional route.
I have OG, Kaplan 800, manhattan guides etc..
But the OG per se is gigantic and only 20 to 30% of OG fall into the "difficult" category. I tend to get impatient doing so many practice exercises. I thought I will try something different. Please tell me if I this approach is flawed so that I can revisit my plan. The kaplan, manhattan, princeton guides are monstrous. I don't have so much time for all that (there is life beyond GMAT - women, work out, playing for my band, ...)

- Manhattan SC guide - revise before every test
- spidey's notes revise before every test
- practice 20 "difficult" CRs everyday
- practice 20 difficult SCs everyday
- solve 20 GMAT math challenge questions from manhattan everyday

Take the following tests
MGMAT CAT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Kaplan 1,2,3
800score.com test 5
gmat club tests
Princetone Review tests 1 and 2
GMAT Prep 1
GMAT Prep 2

actual GMAT and then get high (irrespective of the outcome)

I might skip the Kaplan test series and/or the gmat club tests if I am doing consistently well.
My plan is to take a test every other day and spend the non-test days fixing what I screw up.
I know that the 20SC per day, 20CR per day and Manhattan SC will work my verbal muscle. But I feel just helpless about RC. If the RC delves deep into finance related stuff like inflation, deflation, income tax, law, etc. I might have to start rolling the dice for those questions (for some reason I hate financial RCs so much that it literally gives me migraines.) Any science related passages makes me happy!!.
My math workout is solely going to depend on manhattan's challenges.
This gives me one more week to wind up the practise and jump to simulated tests. 15 CATs will take 1 month to complete and that way I can schedule my GMAT after that month.
200 or 800. It don't matter no more.

All I can say is this: the RC questions DO NOT test your prior knowledge of a certain field. RC questions can be answered even if you've never heard of inflation or mitochondria of plate tectonics. It's one of the very neat aspects of the verbal part. This is not a culture test, it just tests your abilities of understanding the written passage. I know I got a particularly lengthy passage about African American migration from the South in the XIXth century. Of course, I had no previous knowledge of the subject, but the questions were "answerable" by all means! And to top it all off, I didn't get a single science passage, even though I scored 47...

My advice: stop worrying about the topics of RC! They're really not going to be a problem...

What newspapers do you typically read? Some students find that reading publications such as the Wall Street Journal and Business Week help them improve their reading comprehension.

I need to get out of the cnn foxnews mode and switch to WSJ.
The one thing about RCs is that how is it that sometimes it is easier to understand the wording of RCs and sometimes it is difficult? Sometimes you can clearly say that a certain RC is not for regular readers but for academicians. I mean life can be a lot easier when a lengthy and grammatically complex paragraph taken from the nineteenth volume of roman history in English (i just made this book up) can be reworded into simple intelligible (for laymen like me) English. I am not much deterred by the length of RCs but more by the complex grammar and abstract language. And for some odd reason (maybe its just psychological) my hit rate in science related paragraphs is usually higher than from fields like finance, literature, etc.
200 or 800. It don't matter no more.
