Failed on my 1st kill G !! Need advise for 2nd kill G

xx8316

I took my 1st attemp to kill G in August... However, i got 500 only.. still think about should i take my 2nd attempt...Hope CDer give me some advise.

I have took a 3 weeks intensive course in XDF in Apr, after that i used full time to study G from June to August. I am not very concertrate on my study since i was busy with my freelance jobs frequently. Finally, I finished the following materials before my 1st attempt.

Maths -
    

OG 10 - PS x 1 time; DS x 3 times

钱永强GRE&GMAT数学难题精解 x 1 time

SC -

GMAT语法精解（刘振民）全集 x 1 time

OG x 2 times

大全 x partial (did it when I studied in XDF and LZM)

RC -
    

OG 10 - 38 articles x 1 time

CR -
    

OG 10 - first 50 questions x 1

XY13 and PP3 - totally 4 sets

If i take my 2nd attempt, I plan to take in mid Oct then I can meet the first round MBA Applicaton. According to the experience of my 1st attempt, I understand that my Maths is not good and SC need to do more exercises. RC and CR need more practices too. I will concentrate to revise OG 10 for all parts and 大全 for SC. Moreover, I will finish all GWD and XY13. I do not have solid ideas or schedule of my re-study plan. CDer, please kindly provide advise my draft ideas of my re-study plan.

Very tired for exam..... kill G......

数学看得不够：要至少作完费费数学宝典+本月JJ难题

Verbal不见得要搞题海战术，但是要看你的英文功底和作题感觉，如果作题感觉有了，可以立刻去考试，建议多看看大牛写的心经。里面有很多宝贝。

你的主要问题是，看似浏览了所有内容，但其实什么都没有看进去。。。

OG2遍就上考场，除非你是Mindfree那样的神人。

特别是阅读部分，看一边不大可能知道究竟如何读文章。还有你的CR才做了那么几道题目，还没有涵盖所有的题型呢。

首先，要注意GMAT复习资料在精不在多。所以你要做的是把少数的经典材料吃透，而不是说自己到底做了多少题目。

看来LZ时间比较紧张，所以大概作以下几个工作吧。

1 SC：OG重做，仔细看解释同类归总。把以前的XDF的笔迹拿出来复习。同时碰到疑问搜索，或者查语法书。大全有时间做。

2 CR：根据LAwyer的分类重做，同时根据他的方法每一道题仔细些逻辑思路。

3 RC：根据携隐的阅读方法其中的第二第三阶段重做OG文章。

4 Math不用花太多时间，就看JJ吧。顺便FF在看一遍。

5 作文，有空多打几篇

6 GWD: XY 13 考前20天左右开始每天做1套，仔细分析。看讨论。最后一星期开始GWD分类。培养感觉，令考前昨两次GMATPrep。

先这样吧。。。

LZ应该对自己的英语还有点信心，主要是不了解GMAT的思路。这次考试你的着重点就不是题目本身了，而是要看清楚熟悉GMAT与平时英语的不同，要在有限的时间里面完成较难的题目。同时还要加强对逻辑思维的训练。

祝好运！！！！！

强烈建议楼主语法看白勇，舍弃LZM。白勇的书在cd上有的下。
