In great need to improve quant score [#permalink] New post   16 Oct 2020, 09:54
My GMAT is crazily lopsided. My verbal is very high and my quant is low. although ending up at 730 (amazingly) but my math is ranging in Q35-Q38 :<

I feel I definitely need to push my quant a bit. what do you guys have some tips on doing this. My general hardships are

1. Time - I feel if time is not there, most problems are doable
2. Recklessness - feels that some questions are easy - just reckless - in my review generally cost me up 30% of my mistake
3. Some concepts that are harder to understand or take a while to do - combination/ probability, coordinates geometry and must be/ could be type are always taking time for me to solve

Do you think I should get mentor/ consultation for Quant specifically? I have been using GMATClub Math as a start and of course the GMAT book, what do you think other sources that would be good and rigorous ways to get my Quant up or better or balance with my crazily high verbal (constantly 85th to 89th percentile for now gosh!! and I am not even native English speaker and based out of Indonesia!).

Check out my website (see my signature below) and YouTube channel (linked in the top right of my website).
You can and should read the first two sections of my book (absolutely free) to get some insight into what effective vs ineffective Quant prep looks like.

Going for a tutor aside, keeping an error log might be helpful in any event

more than happy to help on specific doubts on questions, just tag me and I'll try to answer to the best of my ability (although this forum has a lot of willing-to-help people). For a comprehensive overhaul of concepts you need some more help, out of my capability though. If you want to save money go for some online courses, TTP comes to mind and is good. But of course nothing can replace a 1to1 session.

Try Target Test Prep. Worth every penny. Good structure, and lots of quant questions to practice. They say - everyone can beat a math, even up to Q51. Person just have a right mindset, should study a fundamentals and practice on topics and errors. Good luck with preparations!
