Hi,
I finished my MGMAT prep and started doing some official questions for the OG and OG Reviews. I have noticed (especially in DS) that I am making stupid mistakes. It's like when I am doing the questions, using the clock to my sure each question 2 min or less, I fail to view all my options. For instance, I successfully narrow down if A and B are sufficient but when it comes to C and E, I almost mess it up every time. The sad part is that when I look at the solution, I understand everything to the point where I ask myself "why the hell didn't I get that right". I had the right approach and I had all the knowledge that I needed to get the answer right but for some reason I mess it up. I am thinking it's either because of lapse of concentration or somewhere in my mind I just rush to answer the question without actually completely attempting it. Basically I do the hard work of getting all the equations and analyzing all the data, but as soon as I start getting that "2 min mark" feeling, I speed up and that's where I mess it up.
In short, after extensive studying for 3 months, I still feel that I don't have enough time to get an answer together for the 600-800 level questions on the GMAT.
Can you please advise as to what I should do to fix my concentration lapses and also to get a question done in time?
Thanks.
