How to practice for quant

Greg mentioned in one of his videos to practice in the following way:

  • 5 lb book untimed , get a good score of about 30
  • 5 lb book timed, 30-45 min
  • GRE official quant book

I was wondering:

  • Is anyone following this method? Sounds a bit tedius and high effort especially if you are short on time for prep
  • If I am going to do the 5lb book timed after doing it untimed, wouldn’t I already have the solution for how to do things? Or atleast already be familiar with the questions?

The 5lb book has been pretty good for me. I did them untimed but was able to finish the timed Gregmat practice test 1 with a score i was satisfied with. i used deepseek ai model to help me whenever the solution provided alone wasn’t helping me understand content. The official quant book doesn’t have as much practice IMO but still good to go through
