I dont think it is adaptive across sections.. pls feel free to correct me if I'm wrong..

I jsut follow the strategy because I noticed that I make more errors in verbal when I am tired.. nd that my stamina doesnt affect my quant performance too badly.. soo yea

hi @hr1212 @bb, I have a doubt, yesterday i gave a gmatclub full mock, did pretty well in verbal and all of the sudden in quants I was thrown 17 hard questions, and kind of tanked my score very much, how much is this adaptive thing comparable with actual exam? Also, is it a one off thing or this is how the algorithm works?

Congratulations on one hand and sorry about the quant but checking the current algorithm compared to official test results, if you scored between 81 and 84, it’s highly accurate. Even if it had many hard questions. This is correlating it to the official test and not GMAT prep.

However, we have a new algorithm coming next week on Tuesday so you can also try your luck and see if you get a better score. The new algorithm is highly accurate.

PS. Make sure you submit answers to all the questions and you don’t leave any unanswered.

Does EG also offer 15 free mocks? While official mocks are limited was told EG mocks are good to give as you said (not for the score but stamina building).
You can purchase the 15 EG Mocks for INR 5000...

As I said before, I think one should treat them as a good source of practice and stamina building. Official Mocks are the best way to judge true current status score-wise...

CR clicked for me once I stopped reading it like a reading comprehension passage and started treating it as a logic exercise. The big shift: the argument always has a gap between the evidence and the conclusion. Your job on most question types is to find that gap, or fill it, or blow it open.

For Strengthen/Weaken questions (the most common type in GMAT Focus), I always pre-think what kind of fact would hurt or help the argument before looking at the choices. That stops you from getting pulled toward answer choices that sound related but don't actually touch the logic.

For Assumption questions, the negation test is your best friend. Take an answer choice, flip it to the negative, and if the argument falls apart, that's your answer. I practiced this until it felt automatic.

The timer anxiety is real. What helped me was accepting that CR rewards deliberate reading, not fast reading. Rushing the stimulus to save 15 seconds usually costs you 60 seconds of confusion in the answer choices. Slow down on the argument, speed up on eliminating wrong answers.

Honestly just do 20-30 official CR questions a week and track WHY you got each one wrong. Pattern recognition builds fast from there.

Hello, I’m currently using TTP for my study prep, which is about to end next month, however I’m still very behind on my study plan. I don’t want to spend again on TTP given that it’s so expensive.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a prep plan? I’m considering doing an in person institute like Jamboree, has anyone ever used it?
Jamboree was bad for me.
