GMAT Timing Help (Quant) 29 Jun 2014, 20:02

Guys,

Which strategies and recommendations do you have for people struggling with timing in Quant?

My first official GMATPrep Test was a 690 with Q46 and V39. I got the last 9 questions in the back of the Q section wrong because of timing issues. I know that if I had been better with time I could be pushing 50+ on the Q and therefore getting my close to goal of a 730-750. I ended with 15 questions wrong in the section meaning that I know I'm answering hard questions but timing is my weakness.

How do I improve!?

I know that with better timing I can really improve my score

My timing for verbal is fine, in fact, I finished the early. So I'm not worries about that.
