Hello guys, I’m Jade from Thailand. I’m working to improve my GMAT score. Do you guys have tips on how to use error logs>
Hi jadedh
The log is a potential tool to help you close the gaps on concepts, application and even errors where you are trapped due to loss of focus or burnout.
The log is best used when you practice official questions and recognize the error you have committed in an official question across 3 major buckets-
1. Errors committed because you didn't know the underlying concept used in a question(Conceptual errors)-
For example technique of Alligation to solve mixture questions.
2.Errors committed because you lost focus and assumed what appeared to be true(Errors of focus)-
For example a quadrilateral that looked like a square that looked like a square was assumed to be a square without details on its sides or angles. Or may be, you missed the condition in a question stem that a variable x is positive and assumed x to be 0 also as you tested values for x, thus being trapped by the time you thought you solved it!
3. Errors committed because you just didn't figure out how to decode the question-
For example, you couldn't figure out that if a question stem reads-"is it possible to assign each of the N students to one of the M classrooms so that each classroom has the same number of students assigned to it?" , it simply means "Is N perfectly divisible by N" or is N/M an integer? !
These are the broad objectives of an effective log
(*)
To know which all concepts needs to still covered and fixing any such concept gaps soon (*)
To know the kind of traps you have always fallen for when it comes to errors of focus and to be mindful of not repeating them. On GMAT , there is always a pattern. Detect using the log and fix it. (*)
To know all areas where you could strengthen strategic thinking. For example, using values to test with a very structured approach when you are dealing with questions that have all answer choices in terms of a variable(s)in PS(Problem solving) questions, or eliminating option C when one statement implies the other in a DS (Data Sufficiency)question. (*)
To map back the official mock from mba.com as you take it with the log and detect patterns of error in the mock test and during practice.So,
-Always create an excel sheet and don't use a paper/hardcopy format of log since filtering the incorrect answers by type like PS/DS/RC/CR/SC wouldn't be then possible.
-Keep only a few columns in your log that must include the official question number, type, specific error committed as column titles.
Don't make the filling up of your log a task as well. You have enough on your plate in terms of practice.
-Be very very specific with your errors. Don't write-Silly errors! What was the error?Be specific around that to weed such errors out from your practice.
-Be consistent in logging.
-Don't use the log for unofficial questions. Use your efforts only for official questions!
Hope these inputs helped!
