I have recently started my Gmat journey and I am feeling really disheartening and Disappointed with my performance from giving my first mock to join a prep company to understand the concept

It is the 2nd concept I have started learning and I am not able to solve the questions around it , I feel like I am super dumb while I am trying hard to learn and practice but whenever a new kind of questions come to me I am blank , I have understood the concept but I am not able to solve questions when they aren’t direct.

Please help me what should I do , I feel really frustrated and useless.

just practice, practice, and practice.
if you can't solve questions with specific time frame after practicing so many questions try to change the style of the study, or even study materials (if you use any materials).

Hi Esheshsomani

REPEATATION is the only solution for your concern (not a problem). Once I was in same situation, now I am feeling much improvement.
PATIENCE is the another weapon to kill the failure.
KEEP yourself motivated for set goals. :please:

Esheshsomani - If you recently started, you should not expect great results immediately. Typically, test-takers study for 3 to 6 months to complete the GMAT study materials and take several practice tests, in order to ultimately see results.

All I can say is that during the journey your will doubt yourself 'n' times and that is the moment you have to decide whether you choose to quit or take it on your chin.

Start with one topic at a time. I know it is tough but if you follow the process diligently, you will see much improvement, which will eventually boost your confidence.

Solve easy questions first and make sure you reach a stage where you get all questions right . Move on to the Medium level only after then. Follow the same for Hard and Very hard questions.

Climb the ladder by taking one step at a time. Unclutter your mind by doing Yoga daily. You will see a lot of difference.

Happy learning!

Thankyou everyone for your encouraging words, I will try to use these suggestions into my learning, I would really appreciate if anyone can help me understand those concepts and approach on a voluntary basis?
