Hi,

I make 90% of errors in Q section on questions in range 700-800. What do you think a good strategy to improve the score and what are good materials to practice hard questions in this range?

Thanks,
TheGuest

I have the same difficulty. Once I get to the 700+ questions, I either spend too much time solving them or get the wrong answer.

"Hard" is a relative term, since certain questions that may be challenging for you will be easier for others. :) Your GMAT score adjusts with each question you answer, but since obviously you want to get as many correct as possible you're wise to seek out tougher questions!

Check out the Veritas Prep and MGMAT Number Properties books reviewed here: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/books

If you can rock those books, you are well on your way!

There is a remarkable amount of free GMAT resources online. Here are some you may find helpful:

Some great downloads of question collections here: https://gmatclub.com/forum/hardest-area- ... 01361.html

And, of course, a collection of Hard questions from BTG's founder: https://www.beatthegmat.com/difficult-gm ... s-t78.html

Also, just to plug my own company, :) Grockit divides its questions into "Easy", "Medium" and "Hard." You may find it worthwhile to sign up for a free account and try out some of the Harder Grockit questions.

Good luck!

I had the same problem , but just a random way helped me a lot to score 50 in Quant in my GMATPrep's constantly.

The problem may not be with 700-800 level of questions, try to find the area where the mistakes are taking place. In my case it was Geometry.

It will be easy to solve the issue in this way
