I am about to start studying for the GMAT again. With all the talk of error logs, I'd like to be sure to fully utilize that. However, there is a real concern for me that the added time might not be worth it (cost-benefit). So, what's a really great LEAN error log? I've got MGMAT stuff and just plopped $14 on OG Archer. Can we count that as an error log? Will it give me good data on my weaknesses after a couple hundred questions? In short, that is exactly what I desire.

the good old notebook-pen combo worked out well for me. As soon as I finished a test or a section, I used to jot down stuff on the notepad. Mistakes, takeaways, concepts, tricks etc.

I found it much easier to revisit my mistakes and writing them down in the first place took lesser time as well.

Based on where your quant and verbal scores lie, the only place you could really improve is on your quant score. I would suggest taking a math course at a community college as a refresher of the basics before proceeding with the GMAT studying.
