gmat math strategy

by sudi760mba » Mon Aug 24, 2009 4:21 pm
I've started improving on my quant scores but I'm looking for validation and some guidance I'm on the right track.

1. I worked on OG10 and did every quant problem including the DS problems I disliked. Any problem I didn't understand or consistently kept getting wrong, i would write it in it's entirety on the front of an index card and the solution on the back. Evey few days I would include these index cards in my practice sets.

2. I followed the exact strategy regardless of source be it Kaplan 800, gmathacks or gmatclub.

3. Write out quant notes on the index cards and go through them every 2-3 days.

4. Focus on understanding evey quant problem that is attempted and focus on never making the same mistake twice.

5. Practice PowerPrep multiple times. I know it's a little inflated but I've moved from Q33 to Q45.

I think number 1. has helped.Thoughts?


Thanks!
