Study Update : 22.02.11


I wrapped up Day-11 BTG Inequalities/Equations (Part 1).

To Do:
  • In the Official Guide for GMAT Review, 12th Edition:
    • Review the sections on Equations, Solving Linear Equations with One Unknown, Solving Two Linear Equations with Two Unknowns, Solving Equations by Factoring and Solving Quadratic Equations (p. 121-125)
    • Review the section on Inequalities (p. 125-126)
  • In the Official Guide for GMAT Review, 12th Edition, tackle the following questions:
    • Problem Solving: 2, 38, 41, 44, 49, 58, 70, 71, 91, 97, 100, 112, 119, 130, 144, 168, 172, 173, 196, 215, 218, 222, 227
    • Data Sufficiency: 8, 13, 15, 30, 35, 49, 51, 54, 60, 71, 72, 88, 97, 112, 131, 137, 154, 156, 162, 165



  • PS I scored much better than I had thought - 15 out of 23 correct! Whatever question I knew was correct was indeed correct. And few remaining 8 which I had guessed didn't work! 
  • DS I scored 8 out of 20. I think I am not evaluating the questions properly. DS is not about getting the answer, but instead finding whether the answer is definite and can be calculated. This is where I am slipping every single time!
  • In Verbal  - Sentence Correction, I finished Comparisons(Manhattan GMAT). 

Today, Would be solving the problems tackling Comparison, then the all important and time-consuming review along with reading on IDIOMS! Verbal reviews takes a lot of time compared to Quants! So keep in mind and its recommended to solve less questions with review(immediate) than a lot of questions with no review(later on)! 

For Quants would be getting off with Part 2 of Inequalities/Equations!
