Hi everyone!
Please bear with me, this is my first post on here and I am in need of urgent support and advice!
I completed my first GMAT exam after 5 months of revision and I did it in a test center in London. I scored a 455 (Q68, DI 73 and V77). Very low, I know 😭 I am quite surprised that I haven’t cried on my way home or gone into hysteria but I am ready to put in the work and start again!
I did face extreme difficulties with quant prior to the exam but I am disheartened to see that V was below 80.
I would appreciate any advice on how to improve my scores for Q and DI! And how to review my score report when I do receive it sometime this week

Hi SuadS,
I'm sorry to hear how things went with your GMAT, and I'm happy to provide some advice on improving your GMAT quant skills. Based on your quant score, it's clear that you need to work on GMAT quant from the ground up. Thus, I recommend an approach of topical learning and practice to do so. In other words, focus on just one topic at a time and practice that topic until you achieve mastery.
For instance, let's consider your study of Number Properties. First, immerse yourself in all aspects of this topic, and then, focus solely on Number Property questions. After each problem set, take the time to delve into your incorrect answers. This self-reflection is a powerful tool that allows you to understand your learning process and make significant improvements. For instance, if you made a mistake in a remainder question, ask yourself why. Was it a careless error? Did you not apply the remainder formula correctly? Was there a concept in the question that you didn't grasp?
By meticulously analyzing your mistakes, you will efficiently address your weaknesses and, consequently, enhance your GMAT quant skills. This process has been unequivocally proven to be effective. Number Properties is just one example; follow this process for all Quant, Verbal, and DI topics. This article outlines the different phases of this part of your prep:
-The Phases of Preparing for the GMAT
Once you have mastered all of the content, you can begin taking official practice tests. With each test, carefully review your results to identify remaining gaps in your content knowledge and work on strengthening those areas until you fully understand them. Then (and only then) take another practice test. Repeat this process until you reach (or exceed!) your goal score.
