Just took a Veritas Prep CAT - 49Q 46V

Seems like quant is still my critical vulnerability. GMAT Club is blocked as "spam" in Afghanistan, so I can't access those tests I paid for.

I gave away my Manhattan Advanced Quant Book after I scored the 730, but now I want to retake.

Anyone know any resources for really tough GMAT quant problems? I have maxed out MGMAT CATs multiple times.

I need curveball, challenging questions, especially combinatorics and probability, which I am really bad at.

My original quant score was a 47, which could use a bit of improvement for my target schools.

Thanks friends!

I've done the 800score ones. Didn't find the math that hard.

I will try the others. Thanks brother.

GMAT Club is blocked in Afghanistan as "spam". Don't ask me why...

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
