Hi All,
Hope you're having a wonderful Saturday - mine started out not so great. I just took my Practice CAT #4 (23Q/35V) and scored a very low score on my quant. As the title says, I'm ready to break something!
Surprisingly, scored a 35V (77%, up from 69%)! Silver lining! (Is a 8% increase a lot?)
I'm TOTALLY prepared now to attack this Quant section - I'm not the best at math, but I CANNOT be scoring a 12th percentile. NO FREAKING WAY.
Sorry if this is the wrong forum - please let me know if I should post in the Quant section (it looked like most people were asking about specific problems). I'm here now to see if any of you have a suggestion for aggressive Quant study strategies or even a study guide of sorts. I know the general suggestions of analyzing your tests and picking problem types or concepts to review, but once I've figured those out, is it best to just do as many practice problems as possible in those areas? I review my tests and try to analyze and understand the explanations during my practice, but it seems that I can't make that connection during the test. For example, I will recognize a type but forget what to do what the parts...does anyone know of some good study guides that attack quant in particular or that I can modify? I just have always been told just do a TON of practice problems, but given that I cant seem to translate that over to my score during the tests...wondering if I'm doing something wrong..
I am taking the test on June 18th and I really am feeling queasy on this Quant section. I'm prepared to do whatever it takes for the next two months.
Suppose i'll coontinue doing small verbal sets in all the types, but my main focus is to be in Quant.
:twisted: Bring it, Quant. :twisted:
