Re: The 700 Pledge [#permalink] New post   19 Oct 2014, 23:22
I am pledging to make the 700 club. Right now I am off work for medical reasons so I am able to study with my feet up except when I will be running carpools, grocery shopping and swimming laps during the next month and a half.

Study materials I own include the 2009 og quant and verbal book, Newer og book with ir, 10 mgmat books, a Kaplan book and the gmat flash cards. I have also already gone over the cracking the gmat books a few times. My current, but evolving study plan includes 10 verbal and 10 quant timed each day, and 2-3 chapters of the mgmat books each day. I feel like my skills are improving so far. I am not a very quick essay writer so it is another area I am needing to improve on.

Good luck everyone! To 700 and beyond!

i accept it i didn't prepared well and lacked 700 threshold.
so ill be writing my debrief for my failed attempt and what all i learnt and also what i will do to rectify to cross 750 in gmat.
people please help me in to be confident enough to come out in public and portray my faults so that this should be a debrief of its first kind in which a serious failed story is written and ho it costed a guy one year to stay away from his dreams.
thanks

Thank you all who bumped it up - I have revised the post and added a few points.
If you are lacking motivation and need some ideas how to improve your score, I have a recommendation for you - get this book - it will help you understand a bit more about what it takes to succeed and persevere and potentially lead to some interesting revelations. You can even it get it for free as an audio book and listen during workout or commute.

Hey BB thank you for the recommendation.
Where can I get the free audio version of this book?
I checked audible, but it seems to cost a credit like any other book.
Would be a great read (listen) if I can get hands on it.
