GRE Quant Problem Solving
1

Hey guys, I could really use some help with quant. I’m taking the GRE on the 29th of May. I’m not an absolute beginner, I’ve already done roughly 3-4 weeks of prep. I know the verbal strategies and am constantly trying to improve my vocab. However, the issue lies with the quant section. I have seen that I struggle with questions found on Manhattan pdfs.
I’m following Greg’s 30 day plan. I’ve noticed that the GRE Big Book plays a big role in it. I am able to solve most of the stuff on the quant section of the big book. So the question that comes to my mind is whether the Big Book is an accurate description of the quant section?
I’ve always been fairly bad at math so seeing a math section that I can solve sorta makes me question the authenticity of the material.

Please guide me on what I should do in order to score above 160 on the quant section.

Do 25mins 30 questions and see how you perform under much more time constraint.
Try to squeeze in a PP+ if you can at least one week before the test to get a better grasp at your situation.
Also nobody can provide a guarantee for scores

Big book quant is easier than the quant questions in current gre. Big book is a great book for verbal. For quant what you can do is go through the quant practice questions in the official guide and ets quant practice book, and additionally solve some question from 5lb book. You can give the free power prep practice test on the ets website, as it is closest to what your real gre test will be like.
