Thanks for the reply. It is rather frustrating, having bought the set of 3 gmat focus tests for the purpose of evaluation and analysis when i pretty much ended up doing neither...Its a rather poor product in my opinion, and GMAC would have been better off, in providing 3 GMAT PREP like Quant specifi...

By the time you sit down to write the GMAT, you would have taken plenty of tests, and answered plenty of questions in a timed environment (hopefully :) ) .. My advise to you would be to set yourself up nicely for the entire section, and try to build a rhythm. I like to start slow even with the easy ...

Understanding GMAT Focus
Hi, I just got finished taking the 3 GMAT Focus tests, as i am winding down my Quant portion for my scheduled GMAT on the 14th of August. I am quite confused about the analysis the tests are giving me. In my first test, i got 10 incorrect questions, and the analysis gave me a score of 45-50 with 80 ...

I had purchased the set of 3 Focus tests , and here are my 2 cents. * Use them merely as sets to get your timing set, and access to some (SOME) fresh questions from the official test maker. I spotted a few questions in the First test that have been published in the OG13, and i am pretty sure the sec...

Postpone your exam, and try to get a dedicated verbal tutor to help you with basic english grammar. A strong base in grammar, and grasp of the language is a must for any sort of decent score on the Verbal section.

In my opinion, very few resources (not all books) represent the 700+ level, on majority of their content. The few that do: * MGMAT Advanced Quant * 10 New Actual, Official LSAT PrepTests (CR & RC) * Jeff Saksmann's challenge sets * GMAT Club Tests * 700 level(tagged) questions on this website, a...

Proper practice and conditioning would take care of some of the fatigue, However you may wish to look at the way you are tackling the Verbal section. How do you go about attacking RC questions? or CR? Do you take a lot of notes? etc etc. Having a fixed and almost regimental approach to CR and RC has...

The people who would have researched into this must have some basis on which they are basing their advise. The best guessing tactics on the quant side of the test are from Manhattan Gmat in the MGMAT Advanced quant book.

From the medical aspect of it, ron is correct. The ability of the human brain to absorb a ton of data in a short period of time is remarkable, and one would be astonished how much of that information can be reproduced in a relatively short interval of time (with high accuracy). Having said that, thi...
