Identify and Address Your Weaknesses on GMAT Quant
One crucial reason to spend time practicing GMAT Quant questions is to figure out which math concepts give you trouble.
It’s one thing to understand the broad strokes of a topic and be able to solve straightforward example questions, but can you solve questions testing the topic in unfamiliar ways? Or questions testing less-common aspects of the topic?
To be prepared for whatever comes your way on test day, you must work to identify and address specific weaknesses. For example, saying “I struggle with work problems” is not as helpful as identifying the specific work concepts that cause trouble for you. Perhaps you’re good at combined worker problems in which each worker works for the same amount of time, but you have trouble with problems in which one worker stops before the other.
By determining exactly which concepts you struggle with, you can more efficiently resolve those issues.
