hey all, took the gmat sat. and am pretty happy to walk out with a 680. the math was much trickier than what i had practiced so the split was quant 43, verbal 40.
here's my study plan and advice:
i worked basic strategies with kaplan's software. practice tests ranged from 550-600. concurrently did the problems in GMAT 800 by kaplan (very helpful), while practicing with the official guide the entire time. I found that learning the strategies and then immediately applying them to problems in the OG was very effective for me.
I also used https://www.800score.com to supplement since they have practice tests that help with pacing. i thought the practice tests were helpful, their verbal is harder than the real thing and their math is a little easier. practice tests ranged from 660-690. which was pretty close to what i got, just split up differently between quant & verbal.
the powerprep exams are OK. i think they are easier than the real deal. PP1 score was 630. i took this within the first 2 weeks of prep. then i took powerprep 2 after about halfway thru the OG and scored 730.
AWA- the Kaplan software & https://www.800score.com were the best. their approach & methodolgy was easy to absorb the final 2 weeks.
i studied for about 3 months, and in the final days i was just sick of looking at this stuff. i would feel ill every time i cracked open the OG. so i just put it on the shelf and tried to relax the final 3 days. be sure to get plenty of sleep the night before (very improtant), drive out to the test center in advance (duh), and take a **** before you take the test (often overlooked). good luck people! 8)

Hey Savio, bud are you time travelling?, seems like you teleported back to 2003
On a serious note, i think there is a lot of real useful information available in older posts, especially on GMAT prep strategy, if you are doing self prep. Back than i guess not many prep companies were around & the resources available were quite limited. The guys back than were real warriors, its fun to read the older posts & see the camaraderie the guys had, to support each other to achieve a common goal of scoring high on GMAT.
However i don't think you will get a reply from the OP's of the older posts, you can post your queries, in a separate thread & someone active will surely reply.
Have fun!! while you dig deeper in the GMAT vault!!
Cheers,
GyM
