hello ,
so far i have given 259 hours and 28 min of study time for my gmat preparation starting from 17 jan 2025 and . i feel that i have not even started with my gmat prep .
went on with egmat 4 months self paced course and today i just reviewed about the number of hours i have given for my gmat prep and result turned down to be 259 hr and i feel zero confindence with prepration.
stared with their quant basic and then done, then proceed to their number properties course and from the beinning of course till today and on 20 may my 4 month subscription will end and i'm still stuck with the number properties course and i havent proceded to word problem,percent change, interest,work, rate, distnce and algebra and their sub topiics still pending
i did complete my number properties concept and when i went to give the sectional mock, i felt misreable about my performance and i was unable to sovle question , unable to identify question type and unable to apply the process skill and i just felt that i didnt know anything.
and i also started with verbal , but i only finished critical reasoing part but when i went on to give my cr sectional mock i was not even feeling confindent to perform the test , unable to reconize the question type, not being able to pre think .
i'm still pending with my reading comprehension and data insight.
when i gave my first mock which was very random i didnt even knew, what is meant by cr rc or math topic and i just gave very randomly, i got 325. this was from mba.com
but, when i went on to give my second mock from the egmat i got 315. i got this after giving more than 180 hours of preparation.
I feel after giving so much time,seriouly like 259 hr and 28 min , went on to make notes finished more than four 200 pages note books and more than 5000 a4 size pages for rough qaunt problem solving, plus a course and more than that 115 days just went in dustbin and now i feel completely misreable and i always think, i was preparing for so long and now after four months i dont even know if im 25 or 10 percent ready with my gmat test preparation .
i have registered for my gmat exam on 6 august 2025 i.e means from today i.e is 16 MAY TO 05 AUG, i have about 83 days to my exam, i have to restart everything and then i also have to prepare for ielts and as well as for my college application. after my gmat only after 6 days i have my english exam and that mean that till 14 aug i will be preparing for my gmat and ielts and than i will have only about 18 days before that ROUND ONE APPLICATION FOR THE 2026 ADDIMMSION WHICH IS MY MAIN TARGET AND I HAVE NO TURNING POINT FROM THIS DATE AND ROUNDS. i'm in a do or die situation, aleardy feeling exhusated for giving so much serious time to preparation but i cannot see myself anywhere in the stage of giving exam and now i am willing to give more serious time for my gmat preparation and plus how do i manage all with such limited amount of time. shall i just focus on gmat and ielts and givng my application preparation to a addmission consultant ( because i wanted to prepare my college application by my self ).
1)I CAN GIVE 50 HOURS WEEKLY FOR QAUNT + 35 HOURS WEEKLY FOR VERBAL, AND ONCE DONE WITH VERBAL I CAN GIVE TIME FOR DATA INSIGHT
2) IS IT POSSIBLE TO PREPARE WITHIN 82 DAYS WITHIN THE RANGE OF GETTING ABOUT 675 TO 695.
3) NEED MOTIVATION
4) CAN SOME SHARE TIMETABLE ABOUT HOW DO I RE-DO THE THINGS THAT I HAVE ALREADY DONE AND START WITH NEW TOPICS
5) HOW DO I REVIEW MY MISTAKES FOR THAT 4 MONTH JOUNREY TO PREPARE GMAT
6) HAS ANYONE GONE THORUGH THE SAME , I WIL BE HAPPY TO KNOW HOW YOU GUYS FACED THE SITUATION
7)SOMETIMES AFTING DOUBTING MYSELF WITH MY GMAT PREPARATION, I NEGATIVELY FEEL OF APPLYING TO COLLEGE ACCETING APPLICATION WITHOUT GMAT. HOW DO I OVERCOME THIS FEEING .
8) SHOULD I SHIFT AND USE OTHER GMAT RESOUCES OR EXTEND MY EGMAT SUBSCRIPTION FOR 2 MONTHS MORE
HAPPY TO LISTEN YOU REVIEW?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

Hi Yadunathpatel003. I would say you need to look at your preparation approach.
Usually you want to spend a total of 3 months on the total prep. You want to be confident every day, not AFTER some time. So every day as you cover a topic, you need to be confident in that topic. If you are NOT, then you need to stay on that topic and not move on.
P.S. I would recommend studying with purpose (preferably early morning) for 2-3 hours per day (likely all you can do when you work) and then 4-5 hours on the weekend per day for 3 months. Try to fit it all into that time.
