GMAT Study Schedule Week 10

This is the last week of grueling GMAT work. No joke. We’re close. We’re scaling back non-GMAT work and upping our official GMAT Quant feedbag. This is the time in GMAT tutoring when student’s get some GMAT confidence. Some of the questions will still be tough. That’s fine.

We’ll be doing a couple of full quant tests from the Question Pack 1 software. Treat these sections from QP1 as “real” GMAT sections. No pause button. Use the plastic pad with the dry erase marker. Take an 8 minute break in between. We’re only doing the hard questions from these banks so the sets should feel challenging. You will probably get less than 70% correct. That’s OK. Let’s keep that forward momentum. That doesn’t mean be a speed demon. Never rush but never dwell. Many people think that improving timing is about solving questions faster. It is more about moving on faster when you don’t have a plan and being smart about where to commit your time. If you’re still not making it to the end of either section then go back and read this article on GMAT Timing. We’re also going to get some review by doing GMAT question of the day. Even if you get the questions correct read the explanations. There are tons of little tricks and tips in the question of the day explanations.

We’re taking our last GMAT Prep CAT this week (here’s the link the exam pack 1 in case you haven’t yet purchased it). Exciting stuff!!  Get a good nights rest before taking the test. Take the test in the morning or at least before doing anything else that strains your brain. It can help to do 5-7 warmup quant questions before an exam. Pick them out the night before. It’s better to work on things that you have already solved but just want to practice. Have snacks ready for the breaks. Time the breaks. Do all of the sections (essay and IR included). Good luck!
