Thanks for your replies, everyone. I was talking about MGMAT Challenge Set 1.

As far as what gave me problems, I guess, everything. When I saw most questions, I had no idea what to do but then when I looked at explanations, they made perfect sense.

I see everyone recommend MGMAT books but I already got four books and that's more than a lot of 700+ people seem to get so I don't feel like they will help me that much. Maybe I should cave in though.

Hi guys
I had the same issue. I took GMAT very lightly and I ended up in getting 290 score. I was to careless as I was a business maths students. Unfortunately, its been 7 years ever since I touched this subject though I scored 190 out of 200. I realized that I am in an important phase of my life and it requires lot of efforts and dedication.

I realized it only after talking to folks here in this club. Thanks to everyone.

I downloaded the error log and working on it. I did my first test with og today to see where I stand!

I have ordered MGMAT, verbal, Quant review on Amazon and I also have 12th OG with me.

Can someone tell me where should I start from?

I need a good study plan for two months. Pls help me.

Thanks
Sri

The entire MGMAT set is pretty cheap if you buy it together. It's a lot cheaper than buying them individually. You will also need OG 12, and you should get the Official Quant 2nd edition also. Work through all the MGMAT guides and do the corresponding problems in OG 12 and Quant 2nd. Your score should improve a lot.

I am not how to approach this. I have all the books in hand now. Should I go for some classes or Online courses or study MGMAT and other overviews before touching OG 12 or any other way?

Please advise me

Each chapter in the MGMAT books have 10-15 problems. You should learn to work them after reading the chapter. After that they have roughly 2-10 problems in OG 12 and Quant 2nd to work. Then there is also an "advanced" chapter of each chapter, and repeat the process. It is time consuming, but a great way to learn the basics and learn GMAT style questions at the same time. I wouldn't put off working OG 12.
