Hello all,
I'll be taking the GMAT on april 4th. I really have an urgent question, so a quick response would be greatly appreciated. My question is:
I'm currently going over math problems in the OG13 and I really have difficulties with the questions that are at the end of the practice questions(aka the hard questions)section in Data Sufficiency and Problem Solving. What i mean is that i experiance difficulties with question above 120 for example (cause they are harder). So my question is how much of those questions appear on the actual GMAT?
I am managing to do well on hard question in the Verbal section. So my question is how many hard questions usually appear on the gmat? ( i know it depends on my answers but usually what amount of hard questions appear on an exam on avg?
Urgent Question Pls reply

The level of difficulty of the questions you see will depend solely on the questions you answer correctly. Average students will typically see questions in the 550 range, and strong students will see questions in the 700+ range.

If your test is on April 4, you should have already taken several practice tests (https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/download-fr ... tware.aspx) so that you can work on your endurance and test-taking strategies. Plus, practice tests will give you a good idea of the level of difficulty of the questions you will see on test day.
Cheers,
Brent
