I just did a practice GMAT exam and scored only 14/37 in the maths part while I scored 36/41 in the English section.

I need a document which has all the formulas etc. for all the types of maths questions which appear in the GMAT exam. Something which is easy to study from...

It sounds like you may want to pick up a test prep guide or, better yet, take a prep course. Any one of the major (i.e., reputable) companies would do. You've got a lot of room for improvement and it might be nice to have some guidance and explanation along the way!

I'm not too deep into my studies, in that I have yet to take a diagnostics test but reviewing material I know I am rusty in math. I'd likely score similiar to yourself, so I purchased Cliffs Math Review for Standardized Test and plan to put in a lot of math review before taking a diagnostic test.

You seem like you need a workbook that will teach you the material rather than testprep material that will only allow you to practice what you know.
