Hi Guys,
I'm planning to take the GMAT by the end of March; however, I've been struggling with Quant. It took me one month to finish Number Properties, and even with that time, I'm still grappling with hard-level questions. I have always been a high achiever in quantitative subjects, but it seems that I can't crack the GMAT, which is bringing me down. Could you give me advice on how to tackle this and what should be done so that I could be ready by the end of March?
Also, I'm struggling with how to approach a question. Should I read the whole quant question first and then start noting down the important things, or should I note down while reading? I feel that I waste a lot of time noting down without knowing what the next step is. Essentially, I'm looking for the most efficient way to approach a question.
Do Quant questions pattern actually repeat or not? I noticed that the more I solve questions, the more their patterns repeat, so I'm able to solve them faster. Is that a good thing, or is it considered like cheating since I've already seen similar questions, and the actual GMAT will probably have unique questions.
Lastly, should I fully master each topic before moving to the next, or can I move on to the next topic even if I'm still struggling with hard-level questions? I prefer to finish all the theory first with some practice, then master them. This way, I make sure that I finish the theory in time and practice as much as I could before the end of March.
Sorry for the long message, but I truly have no other choice than to take the GMAT by the end of March, so I'll appreciate any kind of advice. Thank you.

Hey,
It comes down to approach and takeaways you can draw from a sum.
First comes theory then comes solving easy questions then more. Also instead of a lot of practice sums practice on accuracy as well. Dont go to explanations unless you can solve it.
Can you mention your source of practice?
Also observing pattern is a tested GMAT skill - so thats not a bad thing at all.

Checking the Share GMAT Experience subforum for posts by people who've successfully improved their Quant could be helpful. You could see what they've done used. If there are specific questions you struggle with, looking up the gmatclub thread for that question could also be useful. You could see the different solutions/explanations people have posted as well as post any queries you may have.
