Hi keerthi cathy,

If you'd like to work on "math skills" before you work on GMAT Quant skills/questions, then I suggest that you visit Khan Academy. It's a free website that can help you review/learn everything you need to know about the various math subjects that are tested on the GMAT. Since you have to do all of your work "by hand" as you work through the Quant section, you need to have the knowledge and the ability to do the necessary work to earn those points.

I'll second Khan Academy. It's a fantastic resource for pretty much everything you need to bring your foundational quant skills up to scrach.

This is arguably a biased recommendation, but I'd recommend Manhattan GMAT's Foundations of Math book. It's designed to explain all of the fundamental math principles tested on the GMAT in an accessible, straightforward way. More info here: https://www.manhattangmat.com/storeitems ... 1&catid=10

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
