Early in my preparation, I believed that solving a large number of questions would naturally lead to improvement. While practice is essential, I eventually realized that quality of review matters far more than quantity of practice.
The biggest gains come from thoroughly analyzing each mistake, understanding whether it resulted from a conceptual gap, a flawed thought process, poor time management, or simply a careless error. Spending 15–20 minutes reviewing one question can often be more valuable than solving 10 new ones without reflection.
I also found that repeated exposure to the same mistakes creates an illusion of progress. Unless I consciously changed my approach, I was likely to make the same errors again under test pressure. Maintaining an error log, identifying recurring patterns, and refining my decision-making proved much more effective than endlessly solving new sets.
So, an interesting question for discussion is: If you had only two hours to prepare for the GMAT today, would you spend them solving new questions or deeply reviewing the ones you have already attempted? Why?

Honestly, I'd spend both hours reviewing, no question. I made the new-questions-are-progress mistake for about six weeks before my score actually started moving, and looking back it's kind of embarrassing how long it took me to notice.
What changed things for me was timing my review, not just doing it. I'd rework a missed question cold, no notes, and if I still couldn't nail the logic in under 90 seconds I knew it wasn't a careless slip, it was a real gap. Those went into a running list by category (mostly DS traps for me, I fell for the same "not sufficient because it feels incomplete" trap constantly).
Two hours of fresh questions just adds more data points to a pattern you haven't fixed yet. Two hours of review actually breaks the pattern. I only went back to heavy new-question volume in my last two weeks, once the recurring errors had mostly dried up.
So yeah, review wins for me. New questions are great for building stamina and pacing later on, but they're not what moves the score in the middle of prep.
