Hi all,
I started studying for the exam last week and I took an official Practice Test after 2 days of solving questions in official guide and taking a look at some gmat books at the book stores. Although I took my practice test in suboptimal conditions (noise, people walking by, my low endurance etc), I got a pretty good score of 760 (q50, v41), ir:8 (I also completed the awa properly)
Seeing that, I got the courage to book the test for 10 days later because I wanted to get it over with and I have got the time right now. But now I see there are loads of material I can (and probably should) go through.
6 of my 10 errors in verbal were Sentence Correction, so I went through the Manhattan SC Strategy Guide. And I think I have a better understanding of it now. Though in verbal, I had the most of the difficulty in Reading Comprehension questions. (I did only 1 mistake, so maybe any luck involved? I don't know)
4 of my 6 errors in quant were surprisingly (for me) in Problem Solving. I thought I'd do better in PS, since it is a more comfortable way of thinking for probably everyone.
I started going over some strategy guides in rc and cr. They offer some good methodologies but it feels like I don't have enough time to get comfortable with all of them and I am afraid they are going to confuse me. Would you agree on this?
I am considering to take a 3rd party practice exam this weekend and the 2nd official practice in next midweek.
I don't have a very good GPA so I want to take my chance with trying to get a good score GMAT (and then TOEFL could also work good). What kind of a schedule would you offer for me? I'd also appreciate advice on material. I took some time off work, I can spare about 70% of my day for studying.

I would ask you to work on just your testing (a couple of full length tests and timed drills). Get question pack 1 for extra practice if you've finished the OGs. Focus on your stamina and your timing strategy.
Working on concepts in the last 10 days is not something I'd do. At most, a little SC and quant? I'd definitely not look for any CR/RC books, so I agree with you there.
