Ari's 10-week plan...

depends on how long it takes you to finish what he says to do. Might be 6 hours, might be 10 hours or might be 12 hours depending on how long it takes you to understand what you are doing. Don't just fly through the material- understand what you are doing so don't be in a rush.
 
You really have to set your own pace for studying. no ones' plan will fit you perfectly. Heck even my own study plan could have used more work, but hindsight is 20/20.

Try different schedules, # of hours you study, how many sections you study a day, etc. Using a scheduler like google calendar or writing it down and sticking to it will give you the best results.

Personally, I liked studying anything I wanted to that day and then filling it in the google calendar. Then, I looked at what subjects I needed to focus on more and tried to balance the amount of hours I put in each subject throughout the week.
 
I agree with Soleus that nobody's schedule is going to work for you other than the one you come up with that best suits your needs/abilities. Take good ideas from others' methods, but what works for them might not work for you. You might need to move at a faster or slower pace, you may need more or less bio review, etc.

I didn't use anyone's study method to base mine off of. I mainly just used people's advice to determine which materials to use--but even then, I drew the line at a very different place than most people (I didn't ever use practice tests). You'll know what you need.
 
this is amazing advice...and something I wish I would have learned earlier on! Honestly the first couple weeks were rough because I kept trying to go by everyone else's study schedule. Starting to find my groove through. Thanks guys 🙂
