Hi albertoduro1xx,
Like what the folks on this chat thread said, you may not need nine months to study for the GMAT. Nonetheless, each person is different with specific needs.
Since you're just getting started on studying, feel free to download our six-month study guide: econgm.at/0VAWKM. Though we generally recommend that three months is a solid amount of time to prep for the GMAT, we understand that a three month prep plan isn’t right for everyone.
The plan outlines the following:
-How to set a daily or weekly study schedule
-How many hours a week you should plan to study
-How to tell if you are progressing sufficiently
-How to debrief
I hope you find this helpful.
Best of luck!
Jessica
