Don't leave mocks for the end- it's a common mistake.Take a mock every week.
On the real GMAT, every question is important.First few questions on a section are a bit more important.
A fraction will terminate if its denominator has no prime factor other than 2 or 5.
17/160Prime factors of "160" are "2" and "5". So, this fraction WILL terminate.
13/480One of the prime factors of "480" is "3".So, this will NOT terminate.
"Like" is used for "comparing nouns"."As" is used for "comparing actions"."Such as" is used for "giving examples".
On the verbal section, be cautious when you see an answer choice with "extreme" emotion.
Answer choices with "moderate" tonality have a higher probability of being correct.
The mind-map-strategy for RCs
1.Skim through the first paragraph.Take your eyes off the screen.
2. Ask yourself the paragraph's "purpose" .Purpose is always very, very brief.Avoid paraphrasing the details.
3. Skim through the next paragraph.Take your eyes off.Ask yourself the paragraph's "purpose".Link the purpose of the first paragraph with that of the second.
4. Keep repeating Step 3 for all the subsequent paragraphs.
Don't exhaust official material early- it's a common mistake.Save it for the last few weeks.
