Introducing Neuron: We just solved your biggest problem with OG Practice (And You Probably Didn’t Even Know You Had It) 

A 7 min read

Picture this: You’ve bought the Official Guide, subscribed to our courses, bookmarked URLs for OG solutions from some online sources, and saved forum discussion links to post your doubts. Now you’re juggling between platforms like a Bangalore techie switching between Slack, Teams, and WhatsApp just to get through a single work conversation.

Sound familiar? (Every GMAT aspirant’s desktop looks like a digital disaster zone.)

Here’s what we figured out: You’re struggling because you’re wasting half your study time navigating between different platforms, and when you finally find solutions, they’re either too basic or don’t match how you’ve learned to think about GMAT problems.

What is Neuron and What Does It Do?

Enter Neuron – our brand-new platform that brings all your Official Guide practice into one integrated ecosystem. It’s where you solve OG questions with proper timing, get real-time feedback, and access our signature solution formats without jumping between tabs.

Think of it as your GMAT prep cockpit. Everything you need to practice OG questions effectively is in one place, designed specifically for how you’ve learned to approach the GMAT.

Access Neuron here. Make sure that you are logged in to your e-GMAT account before solving questions to save the progress.

The Key Reasons We Built This Platform

We built Neuron to solve three specific problems that every serious GMAT aspirant faces:

1. Detailed, e-GMAT-like solutions: Most OG solutions on third party sources give you generic explanations. You need solutions that use our methodologies – pre-thinking for CR, process skills for Quant, and owning the dataset approach for DI.
2. Doubts solved in the e-GMAT way: When you’re stuck, you want clarification that builds on what you’ve already learned in our courses, not some random forum explanation that confuses you more.
3. Consistent, single source of analytics: Your progress data is scattered across multiple platforms. You need one place to track timing, accuracy, and improvement patterns that actually help you strategize your prep.

No more switching platforms. No more hunting for explanations that actually make sense. Just you, the questions, and a system built specifically for how you’ve learned to approach the GMAT.

Key Features and Functionality – What You Can Actually Do with Neuron  

Here’s where Neuron gets interesting. We didn’t just throw a bunch of OG questions into a platform and call it a day. We built specific functionality that mirrors how you actually want to practice.

Custom Quizzing That Makes Sense

Remember how you used to create your own question sets by manually flipping through the OG? (Like creating a playlist but way more tedious.) Now you can filter by topic, difficulty level, and question status in seconds. Want to practice only medium-level CR assumption questions you haven’t attempted yet? Three clicks and you’re ready to go.

The filtering is granular enough to be useful but simple enough that you won’t spend 10 minutes just setting up your practice session.

Question Pool Intelligence

This is where we got clever. You can practice from four different question pools:

• Unanswered: Fresh questions you’ve never seen
• Answered: Questions you want to revisit
• Incorrect: Your mistake pile (the painful but necessary one)
• Bookmarked: Questions you flagged for later review

(Yes, we know you bookmark questions and then forget where you bookmarked them. We fixed that too.)

Proper Timing with Real Analytics

Hit “Start Timer” and you’re in exam mode. Submit your answer and you get immediate feedback – correct or incorrect, time taken, and question tags. No more wondering if you’re getting faster or just getting lucky.

Solutions in Our Format

Every question comes with our detailed breakdown. For CR: passage analysis, pre-thinking, and systematic answer choice elimination. For Quant: process skills that show you the thinking path, not just the final calculation. This isn’t some generic explanation copy-pasted from elsewhere.

What’s Available Right Now

Verbal: 1200 questions across CR and RC

Quant: 960 questions covering every concept you’ll see on test day

Data Insights: Coming in a couple of weeks.

The Attempts Dashboard

Every question you’ve attempted gets logged with timing data, accuracy, difficulty level, and when you solved it. Think of it as your GMAT prep fitness tracker, but actually useful for improving your score.

When Should You Actually Start Using Neuron? (Timing Matters More Than You Think) 

Here’s the uncomfortable truth that most GMAT prep platforms won’t tell you: jumping into Official Guide questions too early is like attempting IIT JEE Advanced before you’ve mastered JEE Mains concepts. You’ll just create bad habits and kill your confidence.

Neuron isn’t designed for Day 1 of your GMAT prep. It’s designed for when you’re ready to take your skills from “I understand the concept” to “I can execute under pressure on the hardest official questions.”

The Stage 1 Prerequisite: Foundation First

Before you even think about opening Neuron, you need to complete Stage 1 for each subsection. This means you’ve understood the concepts and mastered the methods we teach, with solid grades visible in your e-GMAT Journey View tool.

For CR, this means you can consistently apply pre-thinking and know our approach for each question type. For Quant, you’ve internalized the process skills and can solve medium-level questions systematically, not just by intuition.

(If you’re still guessing answer choices or solving problems by “feel,” you’re not ready for official questions yet.)

The Stage 2 Milestone: Prove Your Accuracy

Here’s where most students get impatient, but this step is non-negotiable. You must achieve your milestones in Stage 2 – specifically, securing the necessary accuracy levels in your medium and hard cementing quizzes in Scholaranium. We’re talking about consistently performing above the 70th percentile level.

Why? Because if you can’t maintain 70%+ accuracy on our medium questions, diving into hard OG questions will just teach you how to get things wrong faster.

When Neuron Actually Makes Sense

Once you’ve cleared both stages, Neuron becomes your precision tool. You’re now ready to:

• Strengthen your mastery over hard OG questions: Take your 70th percentile skills to 90th percentile execution
• Leverage our solution format: Use the same thinking process on official questions that you’ve mastered in our courses
• Target specific weak areas: Focus on exactly what’s holding you back – Quadratic Inequalities in Algebra, Assumptions in CR, Inference questions in RC

This Applies to Every Subsection

Whether it’s CR, RC, Arithmetic, Algebra, Data Sufficiency, Geometry, Statistics, or Two-Part Analysis – the principle remains the same. Master our approach first, prove your accuracy in practice, then use Neuron to perfect your execution on the questions that actually matter.

Think of it this way: You wouldn’t start with McKinsey case interviews before learning the frameworks. Same logic applies here.

QUICK TECHNICAL NOTE: ENABLE POP-UPS TO SOLVE QUESTIONS IN A SEQUENCE

When you want to solve multiple questions in sequence (like attempting your first 5 CR assumption questions back-to-back), you need to disable your browser’s pop-up blocker specifically for Neuron.

Once you do this, selecting multiple questions and clicking on ‘Attempt Selected’ will open them in separate tabs, letting you solve them one after another without having to go back to the question list each time. Much cleaner workflow, especially when you’re in the zone and want to tackle 10 similar questions in a row.

What’s Coming in Neuron Version 2

We know you’re thinking: “This sounds good, but what else is coming?” Fair question. We didn’t build Neuron V1 to be the final product – we built it to be the foundation for something much more powerful.

Here’s what’s dropping in the next couple of weeks:

Complete Data Insights Integration

All DI questions will be live with solutions demonstrating our signature “owning the dataset” approach in a couple of weeks.

Scholaranium-Level Analytics

Remember those detailed skill breakdowns you get in Scholaranium? That same granular analysis is coming to Neuron. You’ll see exactly which question types are killing your timing, which concepts need more work, and how your accuracy trends over time.

Think of it as your GMAT prep report card, but one that actually helps you improve instead of just making you feel bad about your scores.

More Questions, Obviously

The question bank is expanding across all sections. More variety, more official questions, more practice opportunities.

AI-Generated Similar Questions (This One’s Interesting)

Here’s where it gets cool: let’s say you get a CR strengthen question wrong, read our solution, and finally understand the concept. But you want to practice more similar questions to cement that understanding before moving on.

Instead of hunting through the OG for similar questions, you’ll click “Generate Similar” and our AI creates practice questions that test the same concept with the same difficulty level.

It’s like having a personal question writer who knows exactly what you need to practice more of.

(Because sometimes one explanation isn’t enough – you need to prove to yourself that you actually get it now.)

The Bottom Line: You now get way more from your OG Practice

Here’s what we’ve built: an integrated ecosystem where you can practice Official Guide questions the way they’re supposed to be practiced – with proper timing, our detailed solutions, methodical doubt solving system and analytics that help you improve.

No more juggling between three different platforms just to solve one question properly. No more hunting for explanations that match how you’ve learned to think about GMAT problems. No more scattered progress data that tells you nothing useful about your prep strategy.

Neuron saves you hours every week that you can spend actually improving your score instead of managing your study setup. With upcoming features like AI-generated similar questions and Scholaranium-level analytics, this becomes your complete OG practice command center.

(Sometimes the best solution is just building what should have existed from day one.)

Your Official Guide questions are waiting. Time to practice them properly.
