How is the gmat question section broken down. I know it is about 23 PS questions and 13 DS questions, but I am looking for a more detailed breakdown. For example, about how many geometry questions would be on there or any other catergories for instance.
It can be a rough estimate, that is fine with me, I am just trying to focus my studies on areas that might show up more on the test, etc. It would be great if someone could post a list of what catergories of math questions they were and rough estimate of how many they think there is on the test. I have been struggling with the quant area, so I would be very appreciative of this information. Thank you in advance.

i dont know if that information is made publicly available by the GMAC, or if it even stays constant from test to test. as an example, in my practice tests i was struggling with permutation and probability problems. i tried to make a point to study those more heavily, but on my actual GMAT, i had 0 probability and 0 permutation questions, which was a relief. however, other people might have gotten at least a couple of these.
the other thing that throws things off is the amount of 'experimental / ungraded' questions in the quant. i think there's at least 5 or more experimental questions in the quant, and they can be about any topic, so it's hard to give a rough estimate.
i think if you study geometry, rate/work problems, absolute value, and number questions (odd/even, integers, etc), this would cover the vast majority of questions.

You will not find anything exact regarding breakdown of problems. All of the prep programs offer a range of problems to expect.
My advice: Don't have expectations. Make sure you're well versed in all question types so you don't crash and burn on the test.
