Best GMAT New Year’s Resolution!

I'm drafting up an excel workbook to track my progress. All of my goals aren't final, but I have a busy 2012.

1 - GMAT, taking it a 3rd and final time, plan is late jan early feb, but I'm not scheduling it until I am ready for sure. 680 is my high, I want to break 720, unfortunately I took a few weeks off and now I'm a bit slow on quant

2 - Wedding - Getting married in september, lots of goals leading up to that including fitness, savings, and crazy amounts of planning

3 - Applying to B-Schools, lots of goals here too, want to get a strong schedule together to visit schools and really whittle down my list to the 3 I want for round 1, and 2-3 for round 2, already registered for 2 MBA fairs in the next few months.

4 - Work - Close to getting a promotion, need to work my ass off a bit.


GMAT resolution wise, wake up at 5am every weekday, put in a good hour and a half of studying before work. When I get home, put in another 2-3 hours if possible. Try for 5 solid hours on the weekends. Don't get burnt out this time, that was a huge issue with my last attempt. try for 7 hours of sleep a night (thats right, 10pm bed time). Busy year coming up, the GMAT is only step 1
