Hello
I'm reviewing quant material using Manhattan guides and then testing my capacities on try forum questions here.
My approach is bring effective except with Word Problems. It seems I can't solve even the under 600 ones.
Any advise on what study material to use for Word Problems??

Hi nsa35,
"Word Problems" clearly require more time to read - but sometimes those questions are actually pretty easy to solve (and you are ultimately being "tested" on your ability to pull out the necessary information from the prompt and organize it. Of course, sometimes wordy questions can be quite difficult - but it depends on the subject matter involved. One of the "keys" to properly dealing with wordy questions is to take notes AS you read (so that you do not have to read the prompt over-and-over and waste a lot of time).
Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) On what dates did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
