for sc we have to finish
1) English grammar by wren and martin
2) Manhattan sc guide
3) OG11

HI vinita
i welcome u in this group
i think u will register Gmat after fab, so that u at least finish basics, and have confidence.i also register in fab for may 2010 GMAT.
Kaplan book for RC is "GMAT PREMIER PROGRAM-KAPLAN."
for starting u go through www.MBA.com for basic knowledge of GMAT...
then as i suggest first we finish SC and RC up to fab.. so for SC we first start wren & martin and for RC we give 1 hour daily study of kaplan book mentioned above.

1)yes there is no way for shortcut...so we go through whole of wren & martin book except its last section "written Composition"
2)Kaplan Premier Program ( i have 2007 edition)
3)i appreciate ur initiative, yes we make plan and schedule and study accordingly. And also discuss our problems.
my plan is to finish SC up to FAB in all aspect as i mentioned earlier in this blog. and also RC up to some extent. Then we study all sections and also give mock test in march.. i have a thorough plan..i share it with u accordingly..and improve it by including your suggestions in it.
so my plan for this week (up to 24/jan) is to finish wren & martin grammar section with its exercise.

Guys,

All of you are best judges of your potentials. Normal trend is that people with engineering background have difficulties in English, me being no exception to that. So i suggest we should start from the basics and what better it could be than Manhattan Course book.
After completing Manhattan, Kaplan 800 because that presents a descent level of questions and finally OG12.

How much ever bond you are in Maths don't neglect it coz it has an equal role to play.

All the best to all for this crucial time.:cheerio:
