I took the test about 3 weeks ago and got a Q:48 V:33. I have been focussing on the Verbal portion since then and now am a little scared that I've forgotten some of the tricks I learned just before the first test. I am taking the test again in two weeks and its still have to go over RC again. What is the quickest way to revise all the math concepts and tricks I had learned? (unfortunately now I realize the importance of making notes Sad I blindly practiced like crazy and didn't take notes of any sort). I used the OG-11, Quant Review, Kaplan 800, BGMAT and MGMAT CATs.

Please give me some suggestions since I don't have enough time (due to 60-70hrs of work per week) to go over everything in Quant all over again.

Any suggestions will be higly appreciated!!!!!!!

Why not try solving a few Quant questions from the materials you used? I found that the best way to revise quant is to actually solve a few problems rather than reading notes...

You ll do it donot worry. To be honest, even I only concentrated on verbal after my 1st attempt. Quant will not be a problem. We humans are blessed with a good enough brain to not lose touch of GMAT Quant in 4 weeks or so. I just solved Kaplan 800 Math section in 3 hours or so and that was it. Just practice a few problems and you too should be fine.
Do tell me your score after the test. Good luck!!!
