GMAT Geometry questions

Hi All,

I take a long time in solving geometry questions specially tricky DS ones....guess I do not have much practice in that area....can someone please tell is there a collection of good GMAT related geometry problems (especially tough ones) that can hone up my skills for GMAT preparation ?

Thanks
Mohit

Hi Mohit!

Usually, the DS probs from any topic require very good fundamental concepts. So if you feel that you are week in fundamentals, I would suggest you to go through Class -9th, 10th Maths Textbooks(preferably CBSE board). They are really good in fundamentals.(Don't underestimate these textbooks, they are the pillars of geometry.)

Once done with fundamentals, go through the problems from any CAT coaching booklet(like TIME, IMS etc) That would enable you to apply your fundamental concepts into tricky problems.

Hope this Helps
