So as we all know, the New Year is just around the corner. I want to open a forum up to tell us about your New Years GMAT Resolutions and what you're going to do to follow through.
What are your plans, goals, and how is the New Year going to push you towards them?
Anybody with an interesting one?
Good luck with the studying!

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
