Hello,I just completed my 9 weeks prep course in December and did pretty much all the assignment on the course syllabus. (Although I saved some of the problems on the quantitive review book and I've done only one CAT test so far) I have about 1 month until my GMAT and I need help on my study plan.
What's the best way to review what I've studied in prep course? I figured that it took me a few minutes to refresh my memory to solve the problems that I studied in first few weeks of my prep course. Any good advice?

You should start out by taking another CAT, soon. Do it the real way: write out the essays, never stop the clock, etc. You can't build a gameplan until you know your specific strengths and weaknesses. The reason we require each student to take three full CATs in order to qualify for the free feedback we give post-course is so that we have enough data to recommend a course of action.
After you take the second CAT, generate your assessment reports online (from the page where you would view your CAT scores, follow the link that explains how to use your assessment reports, etc.). This will give you a sense of where to begin (focus on your biggest weaknesses). You may want to aim to take a third CAT a week later, so that you can have even more data for these reports.
With one month to go, what you focus on depends also on how much time you can devote to studying. Remember also that quality of study time is more important than quantity; study when you can really focus and learn.
