Need a study plan to improve my chess

Sort:

Hi guys. Ive created a chess.com acc just recently. Ive just started playing chess again after a 10 year gap. I have a ranking of 1000. How can I improve my chess game so that I can get to 1600-1700 rating. I dont care even if it takes a couple of years as long as I improve.

Give me some tips or general suggestions. It would be even better if i had a sudy plan. Please also keep in mind that I can only study chess 7-8 hours a week, as I am a medical student and I have a heavy workload. Please excuse my bad grammar/english as english is not my native language.

Also state any helpful beginner books.
