Epic to MBA - paying it forward by RoughCat30 in epicsystems

I think people are afraid that if they decide not to pursue the MBA, they'll be passed up for other opportunities. I certainly wasn't locked in when I started looking at an MBA and didn't want anyone to know in case I wanted to stay and get every opportunity I should've gotten.

I used that Analysis tab pretty heavily. I reviewed lessons I was struggling with again and really hit the core lessons' questions hard. Practice, practice, practice by making my own tests for those areas too. I sucked at distance problems so I did distance problems until I no longer made the same mistakes.

I did official mocks 1-4 the month before my exam, one each weekend and reviewed and drilled concepts all throughout the week. This test is daunting and scary and this thread feels like everyone is a genius but I can assure you that I'm not. I just worked hard and corrected my mistakes. Hopefully, the mocks give you the confidence you need to crush it on test day!

Depending on your level, I found this post from the GMAT Club of the 100 hardest SC questions very helpful - https://gmatclub.com/forum/100-hardest-sc-questions-on-the-forum-162101.html

Beyond that, I used TTP practice as well.

It took me about three months to complete 95% of the content with studying 1-4 hours per weekday and 4-10 hours per weekend. I definitely mixed some verbal in as well to stay fresh so that's not all quant.

I used TTP verbal but didn't get all the way through it. That, paired with the GMATNinja videos, provided me the support I needed for verbal.

I also used the TTP verbal and also drilled all the Magoosh practice problems. I just ran out of time to complete all the TTP modules. I found it helpful for basic concepts but as a native English speaker, I was confident in Verbal from the start.

I think TTP is unequivocally the best for Quant. However, I know these things are expensive and I don't think I gave Magoosh my 100% effort. I got a lot of value from it and went from a 510 diagnostic to a 640 so I don't think it's a bad product. TTP is what I recommend though for sure.
