Should I start studying verbal or quantative first?

Expert replies

Hey guys,

I have about 10 weeks left until my GMAT test and I have spent the last month or so just getting an overview of all three sections. I have got about 2 hours per day during the week to spare and then 4-5 hours each day during the weekend, so around 15-20 hours per week. My question is this:

Since I have 10 weeks left, which section should I put my focus on first? verbal or quantitative? I know you are supposed to start focusing on your weak areas first, but verbal and quant are both equally my weakest areas.

Do I start with quant first so that I can continuously do math problems each day while I am studying for the verbal section? My plan is to spend a month on quant and then a month on verbal and the last 2 weeks just taking tests and practicing everything.

The logic behind this is that I would focus on verbal (while I am doing math problems each day of course, so that I don't lose the momentum) closer to the test date since verbal section requires a lot of memorization, especially with the SC part with all of the idioms and such.

Or should I just do questions from each section each day? For example, 20 verbal and 20 quant each day?

Any advice would be appreciated!

    Did you do a prep test to see which part you are weak in? Not just broadly you are weak in both, but exactly which sections. You should focus more in the parts that need it most, but of course review the others as well.

    What guides are you using?

    According to the test actually, I did worse on the quantitative part. Both PS & DS. Should I start with this first while doing verbal questions each day so that I don't lose the momentum of the verbal stuff I studied so far?

    OG 12th edition / OG Verbal book / OG Quant. book. Are these enough?
