Targeting More Difficult Questions Post Sun Jan 22, 2012 12:53 pm

    All,

    Anyone know where I can find problems indexed by difficulty? In my preparation, I'm following the Manhattan Guides and tests and have found that my success on questions in the 300-500 range are greater than 90%. I seem to have a success percent around 50% or lower for questions 500-600 and above.

    I'd like to target topics by difficulty (i.e. 500 and up difficulty for statistics, rates, ratios etc).

    Any online resources would be greatly appreciated.

    All of the Official Guide material is organized from easy to hard. You can start from the middle or maybe 60% through and go from there...

    Hi oxfordbound,

    There are various ways you can use to practise for your GMAT. You might need to change your
    practise style and try this combination to provide you flexibility and different styles to practise so
    it doesn’t get monotonous.
