GMAT study Beginner

[DrivenByExcellence]

Hey Guy´s...
I have started to study for my GMAT, and would like to know how to go about the exam parts. I am in Quants now (witch by the way is the part I antecipate the biggest struggles). I would like to know if you should go thru the math section of each book, or just cover the entire book and move on to the next one?

I am on the Princeton Math Review. When finished should I go to Kaplan Math and so on. Or Go thru Princeton math, then verbal etc...and then move to another edition.

Thank you

It depends on your prefered studying style. I think that most people can study for longer periods of time if they study some math and then switch modes and study some verbal. Since you need to focus on quant the most- do a 75 minute session of math, then 75 minutes of verbal, and finally another 75 minutes of math. Take 8 minute breaks in between. This simulates the amount of concentrated work you're going to have to do on test day.

i like your timed advice. i usually take a break whenever i start to feel a little drained, but taking breaks at the approximate test times is a good way to understand how much focus you need and how much time to sustain.
