760+ strategy

by vikram4689 » Sat Jun 16, 2012 5:33 am
Many experts have iterated that one thing that differentiate 760+ scorers from other test takers is that almost all of 760+ test takers are able to relate problem faced on test to some problem that they did in the past. Does that mean they remember/learn structure of the problems they do and if that is the case i would like to know how to achieve that. At present i can only deduce what type of ques (say assumption on CR) but i am not able to relate to some previous ques.
Premise: If you like my post
Conclusion : Press the Thanks Button ;)

Its more about knowing how would you approach a problem in quick time, since you have already seen a similar problem. To give you an example, there are 2/3 ways to solve an inequality problem, one is wavy curve method, another is substituting values, drawing graphs, using some previous known inequality( (x-a)^2 >=0 for all x) etc.
