"5) Success in GMAT requires patience. Never lose our hope even if you fail for 3-4 times. You might have been very close to success and you might not know about it. In my case, the building blocks required for my success have already been built during my third attempt. I was very close to success, but it took me one more attempt to succeed. So, never ever lose your hope on your dreams."


Pick of your debrief !! ?


Perseverance and faith. Hats off !! All the best for your admissions.

Wow, hats off to you! Congrats on getting admitted and getting 720.
I was wondering if you could elaborate on your 3 step procedure "First – understand the concept, Second – confidently pick the correct answers even though analysis require longer times, and Third – practice against timing". What did each procedure entail?

Thanks so much!!! :please

Thanks Lihmba. What I want to say is that

First, spend as much time as you required on understanding the concept. Without proper understanding of concept don't so go for problem solving.

Second, after understanding the concept, practice questions without timing. At this stage don't aim to solve questions in 90 or 120 seconds. Take as much time (may be 300secs or more) as you want on proper analysis. After due analysis, you should have strong reasons not only for selecting the correct option but also for rejecting the other remaining options.

Third, if you are through with above two steps, then the next and final step is to practice against time. At this stage, practice more questions within 90-120 seconds time frame.

At the end of third step you will be ready to tackle the real exam.

All the best for your preparation.
