It is very important to keep track of time while preparing for GMAT and specially while practicing questions. GMAT is a timer test and gives approx 2 mins for each question. I've developed an application to keep track of time when practicing gmat tests/questions during self study. It is a free app. This is my way of giving back to the internet GMAT community.

Hey Amit,

This is super cool, and can definitely be useful when studying, in order to keep yourself to as strict a time as possible. I do want to mention one quick thing however. This would be very useful for quant, but less useful for verbal. For verbal, I tend to recommend 1:15 for SC and about 2:15 for CR. I think a timer like this would NOT be helpful for RC, because the first question always takes much longer than the subsequent questions (on a long passage, you're looking at maybe 4 minutes for the first question, then maybe an average of 1:20 for the others, though it will depend on whether the question is specific or general).

That being said, Amit is absolutely right, particularly on the quant side, that learning how to let go of a question at around the 2 minute mark is very important.
