Read my guide. “Pre-thinking” can mean different things to different prep companies and can be disastrously wrong. The correct way to pre-think is in the guide I wrote on my profile

Hi, so I have been practicing, Alg and Arithmetic, however, no matter how much I try to be efficient with time, it still extends beyond limit, any tips on how to decrease the time limit?

Try and learn the concepts specially the number properties and practice easy questions and bring your timing down, GMAT questions are about language nuances rather than complicated maths.

was facing the same problem initially, now in gmat attempt was surprised how fast I did. In quant I had 6 minutes left, in Verbal 16 minutes left, DI had 2 minutes left before Ifinished the respective sections]

and I am surprised as just a month back I was struggling to even finish quant and DI in time (missed a few qs, shared here in the chat earlier)

my takeaway - you would not be able to do all qs under 2 min, rather there would be a couple of qs which would take 4-5 minutes. But that’s what you have to check, within a minute you would know if that is a time taking trap qs or not. So if it is early in exam, dont skip it by guessing (I suffered, as even though I came back and corrected the choice, got no points for it), but if it is lets say after 10 qs, then based on time left, you can guess and move on

so lets see the results - only 2 wrong in quant (11th and 12th Qs), and still the score is 81. What else can be the issue here?

As the qs I marked for review was 5th, the only thing I can guess from here is that as it was marked wrong, the algo already decided to go with easier qs for me and lowered my score. Now even if I come back and change the choices, the algo cant adjust the difficulty level and hence my score would still be on lower end only.

Ohh got it....This was my Q in the GMAT Club sometime back...the Q was addressed to all the admins/legends.....if we r constantly answering correct Q’s what’s the hardest level of Q’s GMAT has? 805 level....Now if we skip a Q [no answer at all] how does the algo judge the difficulty of the next Q....and as U said the algo already took it wrong and gave an easier Q next and overall lowered the score - this part is a doubt for me as well...if GMAT is allowing to review 3 A’s overall or whatever.....so why does changing from a wrong A to a correct A not adjust the score?

I agree with you, now we have only 2 options - accept the score and suffer the pain. Or reach out to GMAT for it try to get it resolved, inquire about it. As I think everywhere I heard is algo tries to get the level where we get half wrong half right qs. But based on this, score does not make sense.

I also heard some one getting just one question wrong in Quant and getting Q82

Question no. 20
