I did so bad at the diagnostic test that it's not funny.
I got a 20 on the 45...can you beat that!!!! I always thought Quant was my (relative) strength.
With less than a month to go for my test..I AM FREAKING OUT!!!!!


I got 21 (61%) on my my diagnostic test. Then I got 26 (70%) on m25 and 30 (81%) on m01. So, I think you can improve fast too. Don't worry.

Hi,
I took the GMAT recently and received a score of 730. Your math test was very helpful in preparing me for the real thing. Kudos to all of you for putting together such a (dare I say it) beautiful array of math questions that was key to helping me perform so well.

Unfortunately, I am not that good at writing math questions! But I will submit at least a few verbal questions you guys can use later on. This is my own small way of giving back;

I am about 2 months preparing into GMAT and took this test today. Surprisngly I find my errors are mostly on questions at 600-650 level and most of the 700/750 ones are correct. Is there anything to interpret, like taking easy questions too lightly and missing some details?

I think you should give the questions you got wrong a closer inspection. If it was a careless mistake, you might be taking easy questions too lightly. If an error had to do with a concept tested in the question, you'll have to review that specific concept. It's also a good idea to use an Error log (if you are not using one yet).

Thank you for the diagnostic, it allowed me to evaluate where I stand in the 600-700 level questions.

What would you suggest if I get only about 1/4 of these questions correctly?

The level ranges from ~600 to ~750. You can see these approximate level figures in discussions dedicated to each of the questions. See the links in the top post (each question has its own discussion).

I hope this test helps you identify your weak areas and work on improving them :).

I would second that. Though I'm not an OG expert, I hear people complain about low difficulty level of OG questions quite often.

Ugh, are these questions harder than the OGB 12th edition? I am getting about half wrong. :(

No real distinction between difficulties either. I error on the same number of 600 q's as I do for the 750 q's.

Yes, these questions must be more difficult than those in OG books. This test is designed to help you identify your currently weak areas. Once you know your weaknesses you should study the fundamental concepts and then take practice questions again. You should be able to separate careless mistakes from the conceptual mistakes you make. You should start using an error log if you haven't yet. Error log helps to track down your problematic areas.

Here's a thread that will help you to get started with preparation:
new-to-the-math-forum-please-read-this-first-77764.html

I hope it helps you on your GMAT jouney :).
