Understand GMAT Quant format
GMAT Quant has 21 questions in 45 minutes. The section is computer-adaptive, meaning question difficulty adjusts based on your performance. Question types include problem-solving and data sufficiency.
Master data sufficiency questions
Data sufficiency asks: is the information in Statement 1 alone, Statement 2 alone, both together or neither sufficient to answer the question? Do not actually solve the problem. Determine what information you need and whether each statement provides it. Practice this question type because it is unique to GMAT.
Problem-solving strategies
Problem-solving questions test arithmetic, algebra, word problems and basic geometry. Use estimation, backsolving from answer choices and picking numbers to solve efficiently. Learn the common GMAT traps: misleading diagrams, incomplete information and assumptions about variables.
Time management
You have about 2 minutes per question. If a question takes more than 2 minutes, eliminate wrong options, make an educated guess and move on. The adaptive format means harder questions appear after correct answers, so do not panic if questions feel difficult. Our SAT coaching guide covers similar time management strategies.
