Is this a right prep plan?

Question

I am planning to give my GMAT on Aug 2... I know I cannot be this strict on a GMAT date and start reverse preparation but in my individual case, the reverse strategy works...as it creates some pressure for me and I perform better with a deadline in mind... Not sure hence sharing this rough plan with you all, insights and suggestions are what I am seeking from you about this plan... let me know what do you think about this plan... I am going to use the entire Manhattan Study Guides and when I say Geometry, I mean Manhatten study guide on geometry including all the in-chapter and and end of the chapter questions.... is it sensible enough to proceed this way?

Wow Ketan that looks like a holistic plan.. are you done with your GMAT already? Did this plan work for you since I am preparing for my exam and planning to give it in a month;s time from now... would really like your feedback...

I'm curious how this turned out, too! While of course I hope that you did very well, I can't say I would have given this plan the thumbs up if I had seen it back in June. You need more mixed review, and not just in the form of one CAT after another. A solid study plan should incorporate review & CATs throughout the schedule. Also, it's really hard to make progress on a topic in 2 days, no matter how intensively you study. It's better to "interleave" your practice--move between topics to give your earlier learning time to sink in and consolidate.

In any case, let us know how things went. If you're still working, I'd be happy to offer some advice.

Curious to see how this turned out. However, personally I believe it is a lot better to mix up your study plan. So instead of studying for a few consecutive days on the same subject, I would break it up in smaller chunks. This will allow to let everything sink in.
