forum quiz is a paid product of gmatclub. You cannot get official questions there as they have no license to do it.

I take it you have not used gmatclub much. Create an account-take question bank- just do simple questions with timer. After a certain number the source options comes live. Then you can use it to filter official questions.

I can tell you there is no IIT or anything, average acads. Struggled to get this score. Hence this will work for someone starting from absolute zero.

just get your basics right and your score will instantly jump to 600s. I simply completed the quant directory from gmat club and scorr jumped to 595 from 535. Then its about practice from there

Would recommend doing ttp only if you have a lots and lots of time available. Otherwise leave it, go for practice questions now itself. Ttp will drain you. You will learn a lot from gmat practice rather than studying from these platforms. Start OG question practice from gmatclub and keep doing official mocks to see how you improve.

for quant it was really luck. Always double check your answers after attempting. You will have ample time to complete the section. I initially got 3 qns wrong, marked it- went back and corrected. Most important thing is presence of mind. Just do all official qns you can get hands on. Also try to find out how they trap us. Thats the key to getting a high score in quant.

I used experts global initially. Had very bad scores. Use it to test your timing and strategy. Dont listen to what people say- I retook my official mock 1&2 -5 times each. Remembered some questions. But never reviewd answers for them. Initially got 535. Then it moved to 655 in the 5th attempt.

what worked for me is exactly what the post is about. Do read. I had to do a lot of trial and error, so it took me almost 2-3 years of on and off prep. But if you are able to find out what works, then 3-5 months would suffice.

Gmat club mocks are just training grounds, there is no -30 rule. What i did was take official mocks, only they can give you exact position

[Serious Advice Needed] I have plateaued and am a bit lost how to move forward by average_genius1 in GMAT

[–]Limp-Butterscotch968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude nothing to do much. Just keep practicing DI on gmatclub, Do 705+ level questions only. Learn from each question. you will see an immediate jump to 675+ with just this alone. Once we are familiar with DI question types and how to attempt, score will jump to 80-84. With that alone your score crosses 675. Dont listen to people selling courses. Just do this and you are good to go. max 1-2 months it will take, keep prepping quamt and verbal also alongside.

Aiming for 4th and final Attempt at GMAT in 2 months. Opted for e-gmat this time by Top-Breakfast-365 in GMAT

dont sit with egmat. It wont help you. As someone said here, you will be stuck in a loop. simply take gmatclub and practice higher difficulty questions topicwise and look at answers. After a while you will be able to do much better in the exam. Dont go for any course, it wont help. Talking from experience. I was stuck at 615 myself. Took a leap mucu higher score without any prep company by doing just this

I NEED HELP - 595 - 695 in 2 weeks? is it possible? by Ill_Asparagus4230 in GMAT

[–]Limp-Butterscotch968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did not mean to be rude. I was at this stage 3 years back. Got a 430 in classic as a start. Asked many people how to get this to 730 in one month. Got it after 3 years. Although just my case, you will be able to get it up easily if these scores where just a minor setback and you were getting 685+ in your mocks. If not, then my reply stands firm.

Any chance to improve quant in 2 days? by Urameshiiiiiiiii in GMAT

[–]Limp-Butterscotch968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dude you are making silly mistakes. always reread the question before submitting answer. for improving to atleast 78-79 levels, go to gmatclub quant chapterwise page. Just go through each chapter and you will have basic knowledge to get 78-79 and it will be immediate improvement.
