Hi momostudys4,
Considering that you have already started your prep and even completed a GMAT class, it may be a good idea to take an MBA.com practice exam to determine your baseline GMAT score. That score will allow you to see how far you are from your GMAT score goal and even provide a general idea of your current strengths and weaknesses. Once we have that information, I can provide some more tailored advice.
In the meantime, I am happy to provide some advice related to learning GMAT quant (since that seems to be your weakest topic).
The first thing to understand is that if you
work hard and
study smart, you can master GMAT quant. Although we are unsure of your current quant score, in general, I usually recommend that my students study between 1 and 2 hours each weekday and 4+ hours each weekend day sometimes over the course of 2 to 5 months. Since you only have around 1.5 months until your exam, be sure to study as much as possible, making GMAT prep a top priority.
When considering a study routine, you must remember that GMAT quant is so challenging in part because you are presented with only 37 questions on any given GMAT, yet those questions come from a huge topic pool. To most efficiently learn such a vast number of topics, you want to strive for linear and targeted learning. In other words, you want to master one topic prior to moving to the next. In your previous round of studying, were you able to prep in this way?
For example, if you are learning about percents, you want to make sure you learn as much as possible about percents: percent less than, percent greater than, variable percents, and percent change. Then it will help to do numerous practice problems on percents (50 or more). After completing the problems, do a thorough analysis of those you incorrectly answered and fix any issues needing more attention. Once those issues have been addressed, move on to the next quant topic.
If find that you need additional quant help, I welcome you to try the
Target Test Prep Quant course. The course is quite robust, with 20 chapters and 3,000+ practice GMAT quant questions. We've been able to help many students who, like you, have needed to learn all aspects of GMAT quant.
The trial is $1 and will expire after five days - no automatic billing. Give it a shot. It will be a game-changer for you!
Once you complete the practice exam, feel free to report back here with your score breakdown, or you can contact me directly. We'll get through this together! Let's make it happen!!
