Hi guys,

After completing my initial phase of verbal preparation, I started the Quant part with MGMAT number properties. Being a science graduate with major in Maths, I thought Quant will be not much difficult for me but ...... the reality is ..... :( .

I felt very uncomfirtable with primes, factoirzation, remainders and consecutive integers. I couldn't understand MGMAT reasoinings like prime boxes etc. Exponents, roots are ok for me. The reason why I am so poor on factors and primes is that I didn't go through these since my primary school. Got 78 correct out of 119 total number properties questions of OG & Quant Guide.

Now can any one help me that how can I master the factors, integers, primes part of number properties?? Any resource, any practice material??

Please help!!! :( & take kudos!!

If the first area has shocked me what will the other areas of Quant do??? :roll:

Manhattan Number properties is the magic wand for NP and you have it in your hand. I would suggest you to go through the book couple of times and you would find easier .

and if you want to a book from very scratch , go for KAPLAN MATH WORKBOOK.

have a look at this for many tricks and short cuts.
