Could you advise if this study plan is sufficient to obtain a score of 700+ on the GMAT?
Additionally, I heard there are several strategies out there when you are writing the GMAT. For instance, the GMAT adjusts in difficulty towards the individual as they answer the questions. I heard that if you take 2 minutes to answer the first set of questions, and than; speed up your process you are likely to get easier questions. Could you confirm if this is myth or fact? If fact, are there other strategies you could share?
Cheers
Different test-takers require different study plans. Some students score close to 700 on their first test and wish to hit the 99th percentile. Other students score much lower on their first test and getting to 700 requires considerably more work. Take a practice exam, get a benchmark, and then we can help you plan accordingly. (But pretty much every study plan is crafted with the 700 goal in mind.)
As for strategies, it is true that the test is computer adaptive, meaning that the difficulty level of the questions will fluctuate in response to your performance, but I'm not quite sure what you're asking with regards to timing. To complete the Quant section, you'll need to average roughly two minutes per question. It is true that easier questions will likely require less time to do than more difficult problems, but the better your performance is, the harder the questions will become. In other words, strategizing to receive easier questions is the exact opposite of what you want to do. Again, the only way to know what strategic tweaks you'll require is to take a practice exam and see where you stand.
