Hi everyone,
I took the GMAT last year and completely bombed them. Read my experience here:
I am trying to link to the gmatclub post, but it won't let me
I'll just paste some of the info here.
Summary of my past GMAT experience: Studied for 2 months, OG11, OG Verbal, OG Verbal + Quant Review 1st edition, Manhattan SC, 6 Manhattan CATS, Gmat Prep.
Results:
Gmat Prep 1: 600
MGMAT CAT 1: 580 Q35 V34
MGMAT CAT 2: 670 Q46 V35
MGMAT CAT 3: 660 Q46 V34
MGMAT CAT 4: 660 Q45 V35
MGMAT CAT 5: 690 Q46 V38
MGMAT CAT 6: 670 Q45 V36
GMAT Prep 2: 680
GMAT Prep Reinstall Q48 (only did Quant section)
I took all the above CATs in a period of 1.5 weeks, which was probably a bad idea.
And actual official score : 530 Q36 V27
I am ready to start studying again, this time I think I need a better study plan and need your help/opinion.
Here are the books I have this time around: OG 11 + 12, OG Verbal + Quant Review 1st edition, 8 Manhattan books 4th edition. The difference this time is that I have all 8 Manhattan books and OG 12.
Are these books + the 6 Manhattan CATS sufficient to hit 700+? Are there any other books I should consider? I was reading the study plan thread by bb and he suggested the PR1012 book, but reviews on Amazon are quite bad. Everyone is saying that there are a lot of typos in the book. I pretty much need help in all areas, so any additional problem sets would be good.
NEW STUDY PLAN:
I plan to use bb's study plan guide, that is. 1 month on Q, 1 month on V, and last month on CATs + reviewing. However, I feel that if I spent a whole month on V after 1 month on Q, I might start to forget things I've learned from Q.
When I am doing Q, should I go through all the Manhattan Q books first, then do all the Q problems from my OG books? Likewise for V. Although I read somewhere that doing OG problems would be a waste of the OG problems, should save those for last? If so, what problems should I be doing then? I've also found that a lot of the OG problems are too easy compared to the real GMAT exam. It sort of gave me a false confidence boost the last time I studied for this exam.

I am also interested in seeing what the experts respond to this, does MGMAT do the magic? Frankly I think looking at your practice scores, it was more like u were not in ur best form on that particular day.
