I found this post a little too late but agree with bb that there are set number of things that everyone must know, out cold, by test day. This can save valuable time and give you opportunity to spend more time analyzing and solving questions rather than doing mundane computations.
Till 2 weeks back, I only knew tables up to to 10. The day and age we live in, I never felt the need. I either have excel or a calculator handy on my smart phone. These are habits one has to develop so I started putting together a Brain Dump sheet. I have roughly 30 print-outs on my desk, and first thing I do when I get to work is take 5 minutes to fill them out. Initially it will be difficult, but start by breaking them down into smaller sections till you have average proficiency.
You might want to add first 100 prime numbers to the list attached.
2 3 5 7
11 13 17 19
23 29
31 37
41 43 47
53 59
61 67
71 73 79
83 89

Learning aid:
2x, 5x and 8x are similar.
3x, 6x are similar
4x and 7x are similar.

Sorry, but on page 2 there is a misprint:
in Arc Measure (Intersecting Secants/Tangents) It must be the difference between arcs measures of AD and BD.

I know this post is quite old, but I'm just discovering this forum (thankfully after only being 1 week into studying). I genuinely am surprised to see such great resources on here and I'm feeling more confident, even after just discovering gmatclub, that I'll get a good score.
I have a question about the downloadable sheet. I'm kind of confused with how it's ordered and why some of the items are included. Why are some fractions and some exponents on here, but others aren't? Is there a reason for these particular ones to be remembered? When a fraction or percentage is listed, should we be memorizing the decimal, percentage and fraction versions of each of them?
For the last three lines, why is it important to know the multiples of 12, 15 and 8 over other ones?

). Most prep company materials I've seen advise memorizing far too many things, things that won't ever help on the actual test. 
Thank you for sharing
