Hey everybody!
 Finally, now im free from school for the summer. And also, going to a new school after the summer after being in the same school for 10 years. And the best part, half of my school schedule will be music! Although lets get to the point of this thread, i got 2 months and 2 weeks of semester now and i would like to hear your opinion on what i should practice. I´ve come up with a small list so far, and i would like you to give your thoughts on it and if i should add something.  10-15 min warm up/day Learn some new songs ( 1 song per 1-2 week, dream theater stuff) 40 min/day 6 licks from my many LickLibrary quicklicks DVDs, 5 min per lick everyday for a week. then the next 6 etc. 10-15 min ear training/ day. 20 min music theory/ day (this includes learning to read sheet music) 10-20 min Alternate picking exercises/day (I just suck to badly at it) 10-15 jamming/day. Sites that will be used for music theory and ear training is : http://www.musictheory.net/ http://www.musiclearningtools.net/scaleeartraining So what you think guys, i got much to do and i know how to practice well this summer (over the past months i´ve studied how to practice good so, score to me )Cheers

Sounds good, but be consistent.
You may want to include techniques such as legato, bending and vibrato. -------------------- Ibanez 2550E

This sounds very good if you can keep up. You shouldn't push yourself to hard though. 2 hour session per day is more then enough.
Most important thing here will be to stick to the schedule and keep a diary of your progress. Write down after each session what you did and how (bpm etc etc). That way you'll be able to see the progress from week to week. Also in order not to get bored - I recommend substituting some of plain exercises with the lessons on GMC. They are equally effective - but playing a song-like lesson/exercise will be much more fun. Keep us updated on your progress. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

just disagree with one, i think 20 min music theory/ day is pretty much useless, if it was me i would put like 40min/1hour and reviewing that theory at the end of the day. "just saying q:" and also i don't think you should advance on theory from day to day i mean like one day study major/minor scales then on the other day the modes then the other day ..wait what did i study yesterday q:, study for example major/minor scales, major/minor chords construction and stick with it for a while dig every thing you can from them when you fully ready jump to the next stage, but well that's just me.

You've got some good sites to train relative pitch but what about perfect? Granted it depends on your goals and needs but here is the website I've been using and liking- http://prolobe.com/. Stay consistent and good luck!
