Here's the plan of attack during the Monday to Friday work week. (Subject to adjustments as I try the scheduling out)
6:30 - Get up! Get up!
6:45 - Really get up. Stop hitting the snooze button darling..
6:45 - 7:15: Brush, eat breakfast.. healthy start to the day!
7:15 - 8:45: GMAT STUDY. Theory focus (approx 1.5 hours)
8:45 - 9:30: Get ready for work
9:30 - Leave home and drive to work
10:00 - 6 pm: Work time. Focus solely on work. GMAT thoughts banned.
6:30 - 7 pm: Get home from work (Travel time is totally traffic dependent)
7:00 - 8 pm: Eat, unwind after work
8:00 - 9:30 pm: Do practice questions (approx 1 hr)
9:30 - 10 pm: Downtime
10:00 pm: Start getting ready for bed
10:30 pm: Be in bed, eyes closed. Dream GMAT dreams ;)
Total study time during weeknights = 10 - 12.5 hrs
Total study time during weekends = 10 hrs
Total study time over 8 weeks = (Approximately) 160 hours
The key is consistency.
Rules:
1) Do not take or make phone calls after 9 pm. Talking is actually quite tiring, especially considering I do it a lot during my dayjob! Stay focused. Use the drive home to catch up with friends.
2) Get an early start to the day - I have such a hard time getting up, but feel so much better once I know I did some proper studying in the morning. Less stress that I have to make up 2.5 hrs in the evening.
