I would like to offer my point of view on doing lots of questions.
It's my belief that doing lots of questions is like trying to find a spouse by doing a lot of dating. Its not necessarily going to get you where you want to be. It's called being in the weeds. The idea is to use the questions as a way to test your model. They are simply a container for the strategy that you have created in approaching each question type. You want to build a house not stare at the wood.
My clients so often forget that none of these questions are going to be on the test. And doing them will not get you cash and prizes. I'm not saying that I don't advocate a lot of practice but it has to be quality over quantity using the right approach. When it comes down to test day your performance on all these questions will not matter one bit. All you can take with you is your strategy. That's your foundation.

Good one. So what do you propose for practice + Strategy? Brush up quant and verbal skills and do only the OG problems + the GMATprep tests to get acclimatized with the general pattern?

Hi Senthil7 I only teach verbal and I have for 16 years. So please don't think I know a thing about quant. I'm going to say something a bit revolutionary here. I think this whole skills upgrade idea of trying to become some kind of grammar expert for this test is a terrible idea and highly inefficient. My students rarely miss questions for that reason. My approach is all about pattern recognition and elimination and 8 grammar rules. And none of them are a big surprise. This whole thing is not about overwhelming yourself with a ton of information but having a simple strategy you can apply on test day.
