Hi Guys,
I'm having a little trouble with my gmat study straegy and hoping someone has tips on best practices. I study by topic (Ratios, Inequalities, CR, etc.) by doing OG problem sets. I'm able to get in a rhythm because I'm focused on one topic at a time however I find that when I do my practice tests, I'll forget how to apply what I learned on previous topics because the test is 'randomized.' Probably a silly problem to have but wondering if anyone has faced a similar issue or just has general advice on keeping fundamentals straight when sitting for a practice.

Hi nab239,
From what I get here is that you are facing problems in solving the questions on the test and are OK in solving the OG problems.
The OG is a very good book for practice, but does not teach you much about the fundamentals. Moreover, the Quants portion of the OG does not exactly represents the type of question that you would be asked on the GMAT.
1. How long have you been preparing for the GMAT?
2. Are you following any preparatory course?
3. Have you given any mock CAT?

I'm very new at this whole GMAT prep stuff, but I have found Kahn Academy to be a great resource for brushing up and internalizing GMAT fundamentals. I'm sure you've heard of it and probably even use it already, but that resource can be pretty overwheming due to its almost unlimited content. I have been using this page (https://poetsandquants.com/2014/04/24/gmat-prep-essentials-from-khan-academy/2/) on Poets and Quants to keep track of everything I need to MASTER before really diving into practice tests. It lays out a "curriculum," if you will, for need-to-know GMAT Math. Once you get this down as second nature, you're gonna rock it!
Anyway, I hope that's useful. good luck with your prep! I'm in the same boat.
