I suggest a systematic (even methodical) approach, in which you take the time to
master each topic/concept (e.g., percents, ratios, assumption questions in critical reasoning, comparison questions in sentence correction, etc).
So, for each topic/concept, you should:
1) Learn the underlying concepts (rules, attributes, notation, etc.)
2) Learn GMAT-specific strategies related to that topic
3) Practice dozens of questions all related to that one topic.
4) Don't stop working on that topic until you have mastered it
Then, and only then, move on to the next topic.
To help you focus on one topic at a time, you can use GMAT Club's tagging feature.
While completing questions from
the Official Guide (
OG), you should you use an
Error Log (aka Improvement Chart). You can find a free downloadable Improvement Chart here:
https://www.gmatprepnow.com/sites/all/themes/gmat/images/GMAT-Prep-Now-Improvement-Chart-for-OG2016.xlsx. This will help you identify and strengthen your weak areas.
You should also spend a lot of time reviewing the responses from the Experts on this site. They model the steps one should take when tackling math problems.
In addition to learning the core concepts and GMAT-specific strategies, be sure to work on your endurance and test-taking skills (e.g., time management) by taking several practice tests. If you're interested, we have a free GMAT time management video at
