Hello guys,

I am weak in the following areas:
i) integer properties (factors & multiples);
ii) probabilities; and,
iii) ratios.

What would be the best preparation guide for those areas?

Thank you for your help guys!!

Hi billtsigk92,

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
3) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?

Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich

You could look at KarishmaB's topic-wise offerings here.

Knowing KarishmaB's competence in Quant, I am sure they will be very high quality.

For fundamentals, probably fair to say you'll find positive reviews of all the popular textbooks or online platforms. See if you can leverage a trial period for a long term fit.

You can also check out YouTube videos, gmatclub posts that discuss these questions, and the gmatclub inhouse mathguide that can be downloaded as a free pdf.

All the best

Dear billtsigk92,
the best way of preparation hinges upon your ability to assimilate the information. In my case, the issue was that when I completed the Manhattan guide, I already forgot some described concepts at the beginning of the book. Without proper application of knowledge not so easy to learn from scratch. Following that, I tried several online platforms to improve my quant score, and the only TTP helped me to do so. My quant score was ameliorated from 35 to 44.

If you have a time, you can try to utilize different approaches to fine your way of preparation. Otherwise, online service that provides well structured study plan and curriculum looks more attractive.

Hi,

To assist you to strengthen your quantitative approach, please let me.
I've taken two GMAT tests, and neither time did I have any issues with Quant.
I can advise you to attempt this now.

Comparing PS and DS issues, answering PS problems would be easy because you only need to identify the solution (or eliminate the superfluous possibilities), whereas, in DS, you would need a thorough comprehension and would need to extensively evaluate the potential scenarios. Therefore, try to test and practice those questions before moving on to other quant topics.

Your understanding of which areas to learn and practice more in quant will steadily improve as a result.

Practice, Strategize, Excel...
Hope it helps!
