Study group in Grand Rapids, MI???

I just started studying for the GMAT and I am interested in starting a study group for the GMAT. Let me know if you live in the area, Grand Rapids Michigan, and are interested!

Thanks!

I'm in Grand Rapids getting ready to take the GMAT and might be interested in a study group - it just depends on my schedule. What did you have in mind? My work schedule is relatively flexible, but can vary greatly from week to week.

I was envisioning a study group where we can meet once a week and tackle a certain subject area, such as SC & modifiers, Quant - percents, etc, and practice with OG12 questions.

I am available in the evenings or the weekends.
When are you planning on taking the GMAT?
How far along are you with your studies for the GMAT?

I am thinking about taking it mid July and I haven't started studying yet. I just ordered OG12 yesterday along with the latest Kaplan book and the CR Bible. As far as I know they haven't shipped from Amazon yet. Once they arrive I am planning on diving in. Until then, I am going to look at the software from MBA.com and get the most from that as I can.

When are you planning on taking the test?

As for nights and weekends - that usually works for me it just depends on the week. Do you have all your books and study materials? Have you started studying?

Yes, I have all my books... I have OG 12 and OG 11, as well as the Kaplan Math book and a few of the Manhattan Review guides. Do you need a high score for the program that you are planning on applying for?
My goal is 650... but I know that it will take me a few months to get there..... I just started studying for it. So I am also just at the beginning.
The CR bible is probably one of the books I still need to order.
Well, let me know when and if you would like to get together and also how would you envision the study group session?
