Manhattan GMAT Problem Sets

by hefflm » Wed Jan 02, 2013 6:48 pm
Hi All!

Long time lurker, first time poster. I am wrapping up Day 14 of the old guide (MGMATv4, OGGRv12) and I am starting to wonder, when the guide states that we should complete a MGMAT chapter, does this include the problem set at the end? I have been doing the MGMAT problem sets in addition to "Practice" and "Additional Reinforcement" problems. I was just curious if this was factored into the schedule. I ran across some duplication in Day 13 that threw me off a bit.

"Read pages 60-62 and answer Problem Set questions #11-15 on page 64"

This was part of a previous day I believe, but I could be mistaken. Either way, I would say the MGMAT problem sets take me longer than anything else in a given day. This is probably because they were designed specifically to make you *understand* the content, rather than for timing. Is anyone else noticing a similar pattern? I work through the OGGRv12 and OGGQuantRv2 problems quickly with a high-level of accuracy, but the MGMAT problems take me down more thoughtful paths.

Any thoughts?

Also, is anyone getting through EVERYTHING in a given day? I see a lot of folks on the forum fast-forwarding through the material, requesting chunks of days in advance. Maybe I just move slow, but as a working professional, I find a days worth of content more than enough. That being said, I have been putting off the Advanced To Do sections, because I am stretching my time thin as it is... Any thoughts on that, other than stop being slow/lazy? :P

Is there a good time to just crank out a week of advanced work? Maybe towards the end...? Or is it best to keep these sections aligned with their respective days.

Alright, I have been ultra-super-verbose. I apologize and thank you all in advance for any feedback. GL!

I notice a lot of people have trouble finishing assigned work with the exam. There is a lot of work to do in order to get yourself prepared.
