Hello all,
I have been pretty occupied the last one year.. so have not been able to respond to you in time.
You can pls send across your queries to my email id.. Would appreciate if you read through all my posts in this thread before you write the email – that would make it easier for me to avoid repeating myself, and respond better.

Thanks

Jyoti,
You can start with any of the books – Kaplan / PR for basic tips on Problem solving. Additionally, you can grab a class 9th/10th book for maths from your young cousins and mark the chapters you need as per OG/PR/Kaplan, and then start refreshing the basics.

Overall for a 12 week plan as yours you will need anything between 2-3 hours a day – on weekdays and if you can manage 4 +hours on weekends that would be just sufficient.

There is no limit on questions per section to be solved, it’s more important to have maximum number of questions that you understood in terms of which answer was correct and why.

Remember you have 5 subjects to syudy – PS, DS, SC, CR and RC. And then AWA is there. So, ditribute your time judiciously.

HTH

I am just starting GMAT prep classes at Princeton on the 15th of June. But since I am out of touch with Maths, I wanted to know what is the basic prep that I need to do to brush up my maths skills even before I start my class. Also how many hours of efforts need to be put in everyday/how many questions per section need to be solved everyday if I have 3 months for preparation??????? Pls help.

@Gaurav – There is no best book out of these 3 – Kaplan, PR or OG.
You need to be through with each of them (at least) once.

@Smriti – It takes 2 -6 months for anyone to have a decent prep for GMAT. Depends a great deal on:
your strategy, number of hrs /day you can spare, your study material’s ‘selectiveness’, your own focus and motivation etc etc.

Those looking for help with strategy, help with any study material or the study material itself may contact me directly at my email address below.
