At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Did you take notes while going through each chapter, and did you ever refer back to those notes?
Should OG questions be attempted during or after the completion of the book set?
Has anyone gone through the set twice over the course of their preparation?
Should MGMAT Books be used concurrently whilst taking a GMAT course such as TTP or egmat?

You should definitely take notes, or even better, flashcards. And yes, refer back to them, especially when it's close to test day and you're mostly trying to review what you've already learned.
A good thing to do is, whenever the chapter tells you some rule or process, put pencil to paper and work out a couple of examples on your own. For instance, if you're reading the Sentence Correction guide, try to come up with some example sentences that use the rule you've just learned.

This is probably kind of an annoying answer, but my answer is 'both' and also 'it depends'. It depends mostly on your timeline (are you taking the test soon, or do you have a while?) and the level you're currently at (do you just need a quick refresher on the content, or are you learning it from scratch?) There's not much point in doing OG problems that are way above your level, regardless of where your level is. And if you're an absolute beginner, most OG problems may be above your level right now. In that case, it's better to focus on learning the material methodically before you do official problems.
But if you're working on a topic and it's mostly familiar to you, and you're starting to feel pretty comfortable with it, you can also do sets of problems on that topic from the Official Guide.
And if your test is coming up soon... you should definitely be doing mixed, timed sets of random problems from the OG, no matter what.

Sure! Review is important.

I'm biased, but I'd recommend the MPrep course along with the books, or GMAT Interact. That way your homework will actually come from those specific books and you'll be able to get guidance from folks who are very familiar with them.

I'm using Atlas (which is an amazing feature!!!) and have just started Week 1. My study method is to take notes in Anki whilst I read through the Manhattan Prep Books, I also include some questions that test the core concept(s) of the relevant chapter. I plan on taking 5 days to complete one week on Atlas, and on the sixth day I will spend it reviewing my Flashcards and attempting OG problems of easy/medium difficulty which correlate to the topics I covered in that week.

As I mentioned above I plan on attempting OG20 problems on the sixth day of each study week. The problems I attempt will generally be testing the core concepts I studied that week. Hence I will most likely aim to do 5-10 easy to medium level problems for each chapter covered. I will make sure I review my answers with an error log and try to understand what I did wrong and how to approach a similar question correctly.

Considering the soonest I will be sitting my exam in July, I would most likely read through the books again once I have a good idea of my weaknesses. A rough guess would be ~May.

My 'cold' scores are 620 (Q40 V35) and 530 (Q32 V32) on MGMAT #1 and GMATPrep #1 respectively. I will take my second mock once I complete the Manhattan Prep All The GMAT Set (+ some easy to medium OGs) around the end of February. Currently I don't have the budget to spend on courses but if my scores need heaps of improvement I will begin to save money.
