Whoa! You wanna be a Schumi in GMAT or what ? :-D Your D-day is round the corner and you still have to start your preparation .Surprising! I'd suggest you to reschedule your date until and unless you're a) whiz kid who aces the exams without studying at all b) You think that you're competent enough to get your desired score b)You're hard pressed for time as you've the R3 deadlines looming over you.
In case you're not able to reschedule your exam,you may want to firstly take a GMATPREP ,then keep aside 2 days for each of the three areas on Verbal to build a certain competency level in each of the areas and 1 day each to 7-8 different topics on Maths and then you may want to take a couple of tests from 10th Feb.

Not yet started apps, will throw app forms at colleges starting 15th feb.
No GLIM man, mostly concentrating on Rotman's. My most sought and researched school.

and I am not looking at entrepreneurship specialization, either a dual or consulting(i am good at this actually), however ultimately i'll land up as an entre-.
