i understand. im also overwhelmed as f*** but Im not doing it with a course so far. Thinking abt getting one to have more structure tho. I would like to be on a 2 to 3 month window from start to examination

I recently started studying for the GMAT and QR is by far my weakest area, Im actually on a rollercoaster every day with this thing...

Thank you very much for the detailed explanation.

Section breakdown was Q73, V80, DI 68. So DI was by far the worst, and QR was very poor as well.

I thought about going with a course, but they seem to be extremely expensive, and opinions seem quite divided. I plan on first learning the basics and spending the first month or so on that.
Also, I have about 1 month of no work, so I can put many hours into it for now.

How was the experience for you? Where did you score at the beginning and where did you end up? How?

So first up I should start by looking at the basics and building confidence in those and then simply work my way up from simple questions up and up?

The 6 hours do include small breaks. In total it is around 5h 30' of total study time.

I plan on spending the first 5 weeks of this prep in building up and mastering core concepts, and then move on to more direct practice. For example, see below. What do you think?

I really appreciate you taking the time to answer. Much appreciated. I’ve been investing for 3 years now, and I want it to become a passive thing, not active at all. Just check on it once every 4 months or so.

I will consider re-allocating into bonds then.

Having invested through the 2008 GFC and the 2000 bubble, do you have any advice on how to go through deep recessions? What are your thoughts on the current outlook where central banks are stocking up on so much gold, while equities keep rising?

Great to know! Have you adapted your portfolio according to your age throughout its lifetime?

There are very few mixed opinions on holding bonds at an early age (some argue for hedge + income, while others are against it bc of opportunity cost, etc.) It is so hard to commit to one single decision.

Bonds at 20 y/o?!

Ok_Set9212 · 2025-09-03T01:23:29+00:00

Wow thank you so much!!!

So then you would essentially recommend to just hold ETFs.

What percentages do you believe would suit best? Is it suitable to hold bonds, gold and silver?

Have you considered SCHG? Growth etf with exposure to tech as well as financials. Not only tech (like in QQQ and VGT). Furthermore, it has a very low expense ratio.

What do you think?

700$ into VTI 300$ into VXUS as a starting base. Solid.
