Are you a working professional?
Struggling to find more than 2-3 hours a day to prep for the GMAT?
Overwhelmed by all the courses, books, and YouTube videos out there?
Feeling like theory alone isn’t helping you get better at taking the test?
If yes, you're not alone—I was in the same boat. Full-time job, no time for live classes, and couldn’t afford to spend hours on passive learning. So I built a strategy that worked around my schedule and helped me hit a 730 on the GMAT Classic Edition.
I call it the “Mock-First Method”—here’s how it works:
What It Is:
Rather than starting with theory, I started with mocks—early and often. I took minimum:
If you’re a working professional prepping solo, I’d genuinely recommend trying this approach. It saved me time, kept me focused, and got me results.
Happy to answer any questions. Feel free to DM.

I call it the “Mock-First Method”—here’s how it works:
What It Is:
Rather than starting with theory, I started with mocks—early and often. I took minimum:
- One mock on weekdays
- One full mock on weekends
- Mocks are the real syllabus – You don’t need to "cover everything" before taking a test. The test itself teaches you what really matters.
- Deep review is where you learn – I analyzed every question, even the ones I got right. I wanted to know not just what was correct, but why it was.
- Simulate the real thing – I stopped using pen and paper early. I bought a keyboard, mouse, and erasable sheets to match the test center setup. If you’re still using pen/paper, you’re training for a different exam.
- Utilize small time pockets – During commutes or breaks, I’d do some RC or quick quant drills on paper just to stay sharp. But all serious work happened digitally, under exam-like conditions.
If you’re a working professional prepping solo, I’d genuinely recommend trying this approach. It saved me time, kept me focused, and got me results.
