Hi guys -
I'm into the final stretch of my GMAT preparations. I would love to get your thoughts on what you think I should focus on in this final month, given what I've done, where I am currently in my preparations, and my target score. I started this journey in early July, when I took my first MGMAT class. I've taken some small breaks in between, and as of now, have probably put in 2 - 2.5 months of study time. I have signed up for the test in 30 days.
Target score: 760
What I've done:
- Manhattan GMAT live classes and have kept up with the weekly homework and readings (9 week class giving an intro to the GMAT exam)
- 4 MGMAT practice exams. Results ranging from the low 600s the first time to 680 on the 4th exam.
- Many of the OG problems (the ones recommended by MGMAT in their classhandout. I have done all of the weekly homework assignments and the "try harder quant / verbal" questions from the OG; I have not done their "try easier quant / verbal" sections)
How I feel:
I feel generally ok with the format and most question types of the exam. I feel that hte more questions I do the more proficient I become. Thus, a key part of my strategy over the next 4 weeks is to focus on questions and review of those questions.
What I've yet to do:
- Official GMAC practice exams
- GMAC verbal and quant question workbook (300 questions each)
- Other problems outside of MGMAT's and official GMACs (ie. Jeff Sackman's challenge sets)
Schedule / What I plan to do:
- I intend to do all of the official GMAC verbal and quant workbook questions, so that's 300 questions each. I plan to do about 10 questions a day from each of them to space this out.
- I intend to fit in at least 2 more practice exams, one every other weekend (should I do one official GMAC practice exam and one more MGMAT exam? Or for the final two exams should I just do the MGMAT exams)?
- Skim through some other sections of the MGMAT guides (ie. advanced quant, "extra" SC / Verbal stuff, etc)
I think this is pretty much the extent of the preparations that I can realistically fit in given the timing of the exam. I can generally put in about 1-1.5 hours a day on the weekday, and about 6 hours each weekend day.
What do you guys think of this plan? Would be great to get your expert opinions on if I am approaching this in as cogent and efficient a manner as possible.
Cheers!

Plan looks good to me but dont exhaust yourself in the last month..Ideally people take multiple gmat prep mocks, compiled gmat prep questions etc.
Its ideal to focus on the official problems in the last month.
