Approach
one rapid pass over high-weight topics, with a short review of the weakest

This 5-day block gives you 5 days to work through 8 weighted GMAT topics across 1 subject — roughly 1.6 new topics a day at 6–8 hours of focused study. That pace is brisk but survivable if you protect your highest-weight subjects first.

GMAT marks are not spread evenly across subjects. Gk carry the heaviest weightage in recent papers, so this plan front-loads them — so they get your first and best hours, before fatigue sets in. Cover GMAT's weight 4–5 topics properly, starting with Gk. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

5 days is enough for one disciplined pass over the high-weight portion of GMAT, not the full 8-topic syllabus. The trap is starting too slow. Begin with the heaviest subjects on day one — you do not have a buffer week.

What to prioritise & cut

Cover GMAT's weight 4–5 topics properly, starting with Gk. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

Mock tests & revision

Sit two or three timed previous-year GMAT papers in the second half and review every wrong answer the same day.

Weekly rhythm

Front-load new GMAT learning into the first 60% of days; reserve the last 40% for previous-year papers and error review.

Subject-wise topic split

Each topic shows its weightage (1–5 dots) and the concepts you'll cover. Higher-weight topics appear first.
