Hi ozhass,

When it comes to studying for the GMAT, there are lots of options. To help define the best option(s) for you, it would help to know a bit more about the studying you've done so far and your goals.

Fromm your message, it's not clear whether you're just starting off your studies or not. If you have not already done so, then it would be a good idea for you to take a FULL-LENGTH practice CAT Test; you can take 2 for free at www.mba.com (and they come with some additional practice materials). If you want to do a little studying first, so that you can familiarize yourself with the basic content and question types, then that's okay - but you shouldn't wait too long to take that initial CAT. That score will give us a good sense of your natural strengths and weaknesses and will help provide a basis for comparison as you continue to study. A FULL CAT takes about 3.5 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take it in one sitting. Once you have those scores, you should report back here and we can come up with a study plan.

I'd like to know a bit more about your timeline and goals:
1) What is your goal score?
2) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School?

I would suggest you research thoroughly through all the courses and select a comprehensive course which suits the purpose & not a crash course. Here's where you can dig deeper https://gmatclub.com/reviews/gmat_courses/?fl=menu

Hi ozhass,

A 750 is approximately the 98th percentile - meaning that 98% of Test Takers never score that high (regardless of how long they study or the number of times that they take the GMAT). Thankfully, NO Business School actually requires a score that high - so it's important to realize that the score that you "want" and the score that you "need" are not the same thing.

1) Have you done any studying for the GMAT yet or taken any practice CATs/mocks yet?
2) Going forward, how many hours do you think you can consistently study each week?
