Materials Used: Short Answer...I have with me each and every material you can possibly find on the web and have gone through them some or the other time
To cite the best- TWR Lectures..The best possible resource(especially for SC)..
Here follow the details:
SC: Thursdays with Ron,GMAT PREP COLLECTIONhttps://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/thursdays-with-ron/all-gmatprep-questions-quant-verbal-187679.htmlScrutinize each and every question on GMAT CLUB &
MGMAT Forum
Besides these, I have gone through OG-13 and
MGMAT SC(This one was my first stepping stone towards SC)
I also joined
egmat..did complete a couple of quizzes..but there strategy was quite lengthy for me to follow...so I went ahead with the Ron way
For SC, I think the other thing that worked for me was the reading..I would highly recommend following this path if you are a non-native speaker and have lots of time,say a year, to prepare for the GMAT.I read quite a few on the must read for Verbal list by BB..Also am an ardent follower of the Economist..Love each and every article.
RC: Materials that Helped:Thursdays with Ron,OG,GMAT PREPI tried using strategies here..but in the flow of the exam I would always return back to my original one.
Read the passage thoroughly..Understood the details & what the author meant to say..If I could not understood any, I would skip that part move ahead..but made sure to understand why was it there..(think this is where the reading helps..)
I would seldom refer back to the passage..only if I was not sure of one of the options in the detail questions..
I always had a 90% plus accuracy on RC..so this was not much of a concern..though I did all prep RC's and Qpack RC's
CR: This is a toughie..the key here is to practice and follow a standard approach.
I used the CR Bible..pretty much acquainted me with all the traps and also all the ways to spot the traps..
I would like to point out on thing here..The CR's were a night mare in my GMAT..(both the times)..twice I guess I had a BF question..and I guess I bummed in the CR section both the times.Twice I had the answer F in a weaken and an assumption questions on the GMAT,,wasted a lot of time on both
Quant- I have attached material I used for Quant
I also did the
GMAT CLUB TESTS(Had to part with 50 precious kudos for these..but kudos well spent
)..Helped a lot
Bunuel(I guess he is a team of Asians sitting in an AC office somewhere in the Hawaii) will answer each and every question of yours,no matter how dumb..so don't hesitate
I did the Advanced
MGMAT Quant after the tests..10 days prior to my GMAT..Excellent resource..GMAT will be a cake walk post this
For PnC,Prob,Stats- No one can beat the Veritas Guys..
For the most hated PnC and Prob:
Do check all the posts on -
https://www.gmatclub.com/forum/veritas-prep-resource-links-no-longer-available-399979.html#/2011/11 ... ke-groups/This is all the Bunuel Signature Collection in offline format...This also contains the Veritas Resource I cited above(At least it did when I downloaded it)
bunuel-signature-collection-the-next-generation-170062.htmlIf People are interested in my GMAT Experience & my mock scores..let me know..This was the one to help out those lost in the ever growing maze of available materials
Finally I would recommend buying the Premium Membership..Got the Veritas tests plus the discount on the additional GMAT Preps and Q-pack..(Both are a must in your prep)..you get the
GMAT CLUB tests..another must for a Q51..If you do the Math you save double that you spent..
Mocks & Timing Strategy- 4 from Veritas,4 From
MGMAT and 4 Gmat preps..Mocks help you a lot in deciding a timing strategy..
Veritas is Accurate..Prep is best..but its still easier than the actual one..
MGMAT is a night mare
I used this
Just as the exam begins..chart this in a corner
75 65 55 45 35 25 15 05
1 6 11 16 21 26 31 36
This one is for Quant..top row denotes the time remaining and the bottom row the question number you should be sitting on..Approx 5 per 10 mins
For Verbal
75 65 55 45 35 25 15 05
1 6 11 16 22 28 34 40
Spend more on the initial 15 and later on a rate of 6Q per 10mins
Many Thanks to Bunuel,PiyushK,BB,MikemcGary,Karishma,Carcass,Souvik..
PS: Just got mod rights the day before my GMAT..It helped a lot..my confidence was sky high..thanks again BB
