Hi everybody, I'm practically new here and I would like to share my experience
I had about 3 months to study for the GMAT but I work full time and have little time to study.
I have been in this forum from time to time but I have not been an active poster.
I took the GMAT and did it poorly. In each section I had to guess the last 10-15 questions because I was running out of time.
Now I have also little time to study but I'm going to try harder.
How can I get more speed? I'm planning to practice, practice, and practice... are there other complementary ways to improve speed?
One of my problems is that I forgot all about probabilities. I did not give much attention to them, because I thought that only 700+ scorers have to answer that kind of questions, however, in the test the fifth question was about probabilities.
I have read a lot of posts today and took some notes. I am going to be an active member of the forum and I hope you can help me improve, since I could notice that most of you (if not all of you) are really great people.
I hope that my little knowledge would help others to, so from what I've read in some post I can summarize that a good plan to study would be the following:
1. Take a practice test and identify your weak areas
2. Work OG questions and work harder on your weaker areas (under timed conditions)
3. Spend some time reviewing your answers. Specially those you got wrong and those in which you had doubts.
4. Keep an error log
5. Practice this forum's quantitative questions, since the real GMAT is harder than OG
6. Remain calm and positive.
I have about a month to retake the GMAT. And I'm planning to get a 600+ score.
Any pearls of wisdom??

For people who work full time while preparing GMAT, I would suggest you take the last week off work. I did it before my test. Although my kids had been sick at that week so I didn't get as much time as I hoped it still helped me immensely to clear off everything else from my mind and to focus myself on the test.

thank you very much HongHu. Like many others I've read your story and also about your GMAT score and I think it is wonderful to have people like you in this forum.
One question
Math from OG is not as difficult as in the real GMAT.
I'm thinking about studying Verbal from OG and Quantitative from Kaplan's CD (I have the 2003 edition by the way).
What do you people suggest????
