Mastering the GMAT Quant section goes beyond mere practice. Many test-takers work through thousands of questions without achieving high scores. Now, I want you to ponder about these two questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Why do mistakes happen even when you understand the concepts?<\/li>
  2. Why does mastering the GMAT Quant seem to require solving thousands of questions?<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Here are the answers:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. You make a mistake not because you don\u2019t know the concept, but because you do not know how to apply that concept.<\/li>
    2. Likewise, you need to solve so many questions to reach that level of ability despite knowing the concepts since you have not learned the method to apply those concepts to solve GMAT questions. And you know by experience that this approach is a hit or a miss.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      So how do you solve this problem of \u201capplication\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
