How to Prepare for GMAT in 1 Month

Day 1: Download the GMAT Prep Software from MBA.com and take a test to become familiar with the directions/logistics and identify where you need help most.
Days 2-6: Log in to GMAT Pill. Watch and absorb the efficient thought processes and concepts for your weakest section (e.g. Sentence Correction). Spend at least 3 solid straight hours on Day 2.
Days 7-12: Log in to GMAT Pill and go through your next weakest section.
Days 12-15: Start your 3rd weakest area (e.g., Data Sufficiency)
Days 16-19: Start your 4th weakest area while also doing practice problems for other sections that already covered.
Days 20-22: Retake the same exam that you took on Day 1 with the mentality that you should get everything correct (after all, you’ve seen the questions before!)
Days 23-24: Review any questions that you got wrong.
Day 25: Relax. Mentally prepare for the set of practice exams on the Official Guide you are about to take. Review videos in the GMAT Pill.
Days 26-31: Take practice exams in the Official Guide. At least one full day on a weekend should be dedicated to simulating exam conditions. If your exam begins at 9am, make sure you practice waking up at 7am and going through your pre-exam routine. Control your nerves and get psyched.
Days 32-33: Exam Day

Can you write an article about GMAT psychology? I think I improved tremendously with your videos..but would also like some last minute tips so I don’t get overly nervous during the exam. Thank you.

Listened to the entire interview after logging in..good stuff! I also appreciate your prompt and detailed response to my questions. Hope the GMAT Pill goes far to challenge the other prep guys!

I’m following your 1 month prep plan. So far I’m actually ahead of schedule maybe because I’m an overachiever and watched a lot of videos my first day. But I think I am absorbing the material a lot quicker than I usually do–I agree with Helen. Go GMAT Pill!
Jack

I’m looking at the 1 month study plan … in another portion of the site you mention 2-3 hours after each meal … is that for this whole month? or is that a different cramming session plan?
TheGMATPill

Seth,
Yes, if can do 2-3 hours after each meal for the whole month, that would be great. However, realistically speaking, most people don’t have this much time.
Therefore, we recommend these INTENSE SUPER DAYS to be done on weekends when most people are not working. So wake up early Saturday and do 3 sets of 2-3 hr sessions after each meal–breakfast/lunch/dinner. Do this again on Sunday.
During the weekends, watch the GMAT Pill videos from 9pm til bedtime and repeat throughout the week.
Hope that helps.
Zeke
