When shall I start my preparation for GRE and IELTS? Can you suggest a time table for the preparation?

It's a good idea to start your GRE and IELTS preparation at least 3-6 months before your planned test date. This will give you enough time to study and practice, identify areas of weakness, and make improvements. Here is a sample timetable for GRE and IELTS preparation: Weeks 1-2: Diagnostic Test and Goal Setting Take a diagnostic test for GRE and IELTS to identify your strengths and weaknesses Set a target score for both exams Create a study plan and schedule to cover all sections of the test Weeks 3-8: Content Review and Practice Focus on building your foundational skills in math, English and analytical thinking Review GRE and IELTS content areas such as vocabulary, grammar, reading comprehension, and math concepts Practice with GRE and IELTS sample questions and tests Weeks 9-12: Practice Tests and Performance Improvement Take full-length GRE and IELTS practice tests under test conditions Review and analyze your test results to identify areas for improvement Focus on improving your weak areas through additional practice and study Weeks 13-16: Final Review and Test Day Preparation Review and consolidate all the concepts and skills learned during the preparation period Take a few more full-length practice tests to build stamina and confidence Familiarize yourself with the test-day procedures, including timing, test center location, and rules and regulations Remember, this is just a sample timetable, and you can adjust it based on your needs and schedule. The most important thing is to be consistent and committed to your study plan, and to make continuous improvements in your skills and knowledge. Good luck with your GRE and IELTS preparation!

I scored 7 in IELTS with 15 days of preparation, it totally depends on your current English proficiency, If you're good then 1-month minimum. Cause contrary to common beliefs it is not like the Unseen passages you did in your schooling career.

Hi Tushar, There is no hard-fast rule and a rigid time table for tests like these, 6 to 7 hours a day will be enough depending on your routine, you must club your preparation along with your studies. How you can club them is unto you. Mock tests or practice tests are the key to such standardized tests, keep taking the practice tests so you understand where you stand and your areas of improvement. You will find all such mock tests and materials online. Utilize your breaks and vacation to prepare for GRE and IELTS. You must also keep focusing on your academics and extra curricular. MIT is very selective and applicants must demonstrate an all-rounder profile. IELTS scores are valid for 2 years while GRE scores are valid for 5 years, so keep a check on the validity too.
