Best approach is not to move from one book to another. You may find few topics explained better in one book and few in another,but if switching material will leave you confused.beter2jump wrote:Hi I took my Actual GMAT but scored quite low in the Quant section.

Second suggestion, would be to time your practise.Do 40 questions in 1 hours. Use GMAT Timer of this forum to record you time. I have done this and found that under time-pressure I was making silliest mistakes in the world e.g. calculating the answer correct but selecting the wrong answer or not converting miles to kilometer etc.
One you time your practise questions, try and work out questions which you got wrong or which you took long time to complete.
Timed practise and covering area where you struggled is only way forward to improve score.
Regarding books, I find MGMAT series is quite good for Quant section due to it's structure approach and good explaination.
Also check Ursula's Grid. It is very helpful.
