Hi! My name is Sudhanwa. Im new here. I just joined like 2 days back. I am aiming to score well past 700. My math is average or maybe above average. I am a computer science student.
The thing is that i am very confused where to start with. Some people say do not start with the OG guide, it will be a waste. Some say start with official mba practice questions. Even though I am vaguely familiar with the test format, these practice questions are not helpful to me when I dont know the pattern of questions asked also it’ll be good to learn some shortcuts and tricks to solve the questions.
I am right now mainly trying to improve my quant skills. It will be of great help if someone could suggest me really where to start! I’d really appreciate it
Hi @Sudhanwa23, welcome! It’s great that you’re aiming for a high GMAT score. Start by familiarizing yourself with the test structure and taking a diagnostic test to identify your strengths and weaknesses. Focus on fundamental math concepts like arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and word problems .
While some advise against starting with the Official Guide, it can be useful once you grasp the basics. Use books and online courses for structured guidance. Practice regularly with a mix of question difficulties and learn shortcuts for efficiency. Use forums for tips and resources. Review your mistakes and practice with timed quizzes to build speed and accuracy. Good luck! If you need more advice, feel free to ask!
