Hi everyone,
Stumbled across this site after doing random internet searches I figured I might as well join since I'm a member of 15 other forums and started my GMAT studying journey...
This is actually my second stint studying for the GMAT. The first was back in April 2009. I had registered for an MGMAT 9-course session, which my company at the time paid for. My original test date was scheduled for July, but when July came around, I figured to push it out a month because I was scoring mid-500s on my CATs. Target score is 710-730. Before my test in August, I received an offer from a Big 4 consulting firm in which I could not turn down. I never took the exam, and here I am all over again studying for the exam with plans to matriculate in Fall '12. If you haven't already guessed, consulting was not the right career choice
So I am on the road to hopefully getting the score that I want and attend the school of my choice, but I know there is a lot of work ahead of me. I am committed, devoted, focused to achieve my desired score. With that said, I have scheduled a test date of 8/26. Currently, I am following the MGMAT Study Organizer which is an Excel spreadsheet devoting daily practice on different GMAT topics. The amount of work ranges between 2-3 hours a day, and I have currently set this organizer as my guide to achieve a 720+. I would appreciate any feedback from those who have used this sheet or any other method to achieve the scores they want. My options are limited and I HAVE to score a 720+ to stay competitive within my applicant pool at the schools where I plan to apply.
Thanks in advance,
T5G

Thanks, bb.
Took my MGMAT CAT back on Friday and scored 530, 33Q 31V
so I have A LOT of work to do! Based on my assessment report, how should I tackle the areas needed for improvement? Here is my split:
%Right
Data Sufficiency 27% (always weak area of mine. Really undermined questions and zipped through quant with 9 min left.
I know I have a problem when I have 9 min left in quant!)
Critical Reasoning 29% (wasn't familiar with interpreting the questions and it made things difficult)
Number Properties 50% (Difficult to grasp especially at the 600-800 level, but I can get through this)
Reading Comp 58% (Took exam after the end of a long work day, and did better than expected for my first shot. I'm
a native speaker and wont have much trouble to improve verbal to overall hit the low 40s)
Sentence Correction 73% (this is without much review in Sentence correction area)
I reviewed all of my quant questions from the CAT, but I want to focus on one topic at a time. I've also read the study guide threads but a little overwhelmed on how to tackle this. Any additional input or links to threads would be great. Also, can you please update the first post in the Error Log thread to reflect the latest and greatest error logs? It makes it difficult navigating through all 10 pages to find the most updated one. If you can make it a sticky, that would be great.
Thanks!
