Beginner , took the diagnostic test , horrible please help

by psurajb » Sat Oct 29, 2011 3:29 am
I am a average student , I just completed my graduation in computer science engineering thease are my facts.
I am weak in math , so I read the Kaplan math foundation. That book was easy , but then when I took the diagnostic test in OG , I could not answer even first ten questions. So my question is this.

1. I am writing the test in December that is 62 days from now and I am full time preparing as I am at home not working. I didn't not understand where to start from

2. Every forum I went and saw everyone who took the diagnostic test had scored like a 700 , I on the other hand was finding it difficult to even do the first few sums in quant

3. I tried to. Find out how to start and go about the study plan but everyone of the study plans were having a very high intellectual starting point.

4. Please help me by telling me how to start and go about , I mean , I did Kaplan math foundations and found it too basic , then I started OG found it too tuff, isnt there a one step at a time solution?

5. I am confident if I work hard in a systematic way I can make it to 700 but the problem is I am not finding the systematic way , if anyone of you can think from a average math guy point of view please help me out guys , you re my last hope , I have already lost enough time trying out differ strategies.

First off, don't worry! 62 days is a lot of time to study. I would argue that's the perfect amount of time to study if you can commit to it and be disciplined. Doing well at math is a function of how much time you put into it and how good your study materials are. I wouldn't worry too much at this point if you didn't do well on a diagnostics test. Do a lot of research on what the best study materials are, be committed, study hard and consistently, and you should definitely improve.
