But what if these abilities numbers were impacted negatively by these factors.\u00a0 In that case, you may end up spending more than required time preparing for that sub-section.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>So, let\u2019s learn what these factors are:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-21553 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Factors-that-impact-Ability.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"566\" height=\"365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Factors-that-impact-Ability.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Factors-that-impact-Ability-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Factors-that-impact-Ability-768x495.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Warm-Up Issues<\/h2>\n<p>Warm-Up issues are experienced if you attempt the mock test without sufficiently practicing each sub-section.\u00a0 Basically, when you approach the test without sufficiently practicing each sub-section, your brain does not remember exactly what to do in steps 1 or 2 or 3.\u00a0 And this can result in an ability number that is less than your true ability.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine doing a practice session in tennis without warming-up your body.\u00a0 Lack of warm-up before an intense activity negatively impacts the performance of the person in that activity.\u00a0 That is exactly the experience that a student may have if he\/she does the mock test without proper practice.<\/p>\n<h3>Example 1<\/h3>\n<p>In this example, the student got 49 ability in Algebra\/Geometry sub-section.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21554\" style=\"width: 419px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21554\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-21554\" src=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/gmat-ability-sigma-x.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"409\" height=\"377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/gmat-ability-sigma-x.png 764w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/gmat-ability-sigma-x-300x276.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 409px) 100vw, 409px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21554\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 1 &#8211;

Opportunities<\/h2>\n<p>Missed opportunities manifest when the student has the ability to solve a certain question but because he\/she was not left with sufficient time for that question, he is unable to solve that question correctly.\u00a0 This happens in the case when the student wastes the time on questions that are beyond his\/her reach or when a student spends an excessive amount of time on questions \u2013 i.e. time that is way beyond his\/her takt time for that question type.<\/p>\n<h3>Example 1<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_21559\" style=\"width: 348px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21559\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-21559\" src=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Missed-Opportunities.png\"

class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 3 &#8211; Missed Opportunities<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In this case, the student wasted almost 10 minutes on questions that were beyond his reach.\u00a0 Thus, led to the entire Block 4 to be a missed opportunity.\u00a0 The student could have been able to solve at least some of the questions in Block 4, but he did not even get that opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, a student should know when to give up on questions.<\/p>\n<h3>Example 2<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_21557\" style=\"width: 427px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21557\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-21557\" src=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/gmat-ability-sigma-x-3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"417\" height=\"383\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21557\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 4 &#8211; Missed Opportunities<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This is the example in which the student was served difficult questions but since he got too invested in one question in Block 3, he did not have sufficient time left for difficult questions in the subsequent block.\u00a0\u00a0 Once again, the same theme \u2013 had this student knew that he needs to give up on that one difficult question in Block 3, he would have saved that precious time and allocated it to at least one question that he got wrong in Block 4.\u00a0 This would have bumped up his ability score in SC.\u00a0 Yet another classic example of missed opportunity.<\/p>\n<h3>Example 3<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_21558\" style=\"width: 355px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21558\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-21558\"

300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 345px) 100vw, 345px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21558\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 5 &#8211; Missed Opportunities<\/p><\/div>\n<p>And the story continues.\u00a0 This is Algebra\/Geometry sub-section.\u00a0 This student got way to invested in 2 questions in Blocks 1 and 3 \u2013 he spent 3 minutes and 4 minutes of these questions.\u00a0 And he got them both wrong.\u00a0 Imagine, if this student knew when to give up, he would have been able to save 4 minutes in all and those 4 minutes could have been used to answer difficult questions in block 4.\u00a0 Yet another missed opportunity.<\/p>\n<h3>How can you detect Missed OPPORTUNITIES?<\/h3>\n<p>So, in essence, whenever you see that you spent less than optimal time on questions that actually are from your areas of strength and you got those questions wrong, you know that these questions are missed opportunities.\u00a0 And that is because you gave certain other questions in the preceding blocks more than what they deserved.\u00a0 And typically, you see such instances of less than optimal time being spent on questions that are in Blocks 3 and 4.<\/p>\n<h2>Further Reading<\/h2>\n<p>Now that we
