GMAT: Reading Comprehension

 

GMAT Reading ComprehensionReading comprehension is arguably the most challenging part of the verbal section of the GMAT. MBAhelp's Reading Comprehension Workshop will assist you in overcoming the mental barriers. Like a marathon, you are tested on your endurance rather than on your innate talent. By contrast, you are not tested on your reading ability per se. The mere quantity of questions cannot allow you to proceed in the traditional way as you were taught in school. For example, we aim to answer the questions, then read the texts. At first glance, such a concept may seem counterintuitive. But it is such lateral-thinking methodologies that are the cornerstones of the Reading Comprehension Workshop. They work.

 

The Workshop will show you how to:

  • Analyse and attack the question format

  • Break down the barriers of jargon

  • Scan and skim the passages for relevant details

  • Learn to summarize paragraphs

  • Save time and energy

 


GMAT: Word Problems

 

Vorbereitung GMAT

On the GMAT it is extremely important to be able to take a given text, break it down and create a logical algebraic equation.
For many questions on the GMAT, this can also be avoided with certain tricks.

 

 

In this workshop, we cover the following topics:

  • Setting up varius equations such as work, mixture, rate, investment, set, coin, digit and age.

  • Backsolving

  • Inserting

 


GMAT: Geometry

 

On the GMAT, geometry is all about visualisation. Being able to handle these types of problems is essential for high level scores. Most top test takers notice a higher percentage of these types of problems on the above 640 category of questions.

 

Topics covered in this workshop:

 

  • Lines and angles

  • Quadrilaterals

  • Triangles

  • Circles

  • Areas

  • Volumes

  • Coordinate Geometry

 


GMAT: Number Properties

 

GMAT Number Properties

One area that seems to get tested quite a lot on the quantitative section on the GMAT is number properties, i.e. questions that deal with absolute values, integers, real numbers, LCM, HCF, divisibility rules, unit numbers, complex arithmetic, to name a few. For many GMAT candidates, these are the problems that cause major grief on Data Sufficiency problems as well as Problem Solving.

 

Examples of number property questions:

  • The sum of two numbers is 588 and their HCF is 49. How many such pairs of numbers can be formed?

  • How many divisors are there in 2100?

  • Find the sum of all two digit numbers which leave a remainder of 3 when divided by 7?

  • How many zeros does the number 38! have?

  • What is the highest power of 12 that divides 26! evenly?

  • If n > 0, what is the smallest value of n for 720 to divide the product of 37956 and n evenly?

 


GMAT: Probabilities and Permutations

 

GMAT Probablilities and Permutations

Unfortunately, for most GMAT test takers, up to five of the 37 quantitative questions on the GMAT are in the category of Probabilities and Permutations. Although most of the questions that come up are not too difficult, they can be a bit confusing. If you feel you need help or perhaps just a refresher on these types of problems, check out the date of the next GMAT Probabilities and Permutations Workshop.

 

These are examples of probabilities and permutations:

 

  • 10 baseball teams plan to play each other 10 times in a certain season. How many total games will be played in the season?

  • There are 10 books on a book shelf, 5 Math, 3 History and 2 Art. If 2 are selected at random what is the probability of selecting 2 different kinds of books?

  • Four different science books, six different art books and two different novels are to be arranged on a shelf. How many different arrangements are possible if (a) all the books of one type must stand together, and (b) only the science books must stand together?

  • In a five day period the chance of rain each day is 50% what is the chance that it will rain (a) only twice (b) at least 3 times?

  • A four-sided die is rolled 4 times. What is the probability of getting a 4 at least twice?

  • On an examination there are 25 different topics and only 3 questions. A student did not have enough time to prepare for 10 of the topics. What is the probability that he will be able to answer all three questions on the exam?

  • What is the probability that a random arrangement of the letters IIITTANOAV in a row results in the word INVITATION?

 


 

GMAT: Roots and Powers and Other Horrific Creations

 

GMATVorbereitung: Horrific Creations

Although exponents should be easy on the test, the test creators do love to make things difficult. Sure, there are only three basic formulas, but how to use them effectively becomes the challenge on the test.

 

Try these exampes:

777 – 776 = ?
a) 7
b) 49
c) 776
d) 6 * 776
e) 6 * 777

 

If 97 + 97 + 97 = 27n, what does n equal?
a) 5
b) 6
c) 7
d) 8
e) 9

 


 

GMAT: Data Sufficiency

 

GMAT Data Sufficiency

Many people find that, after mastering each of the 30 different types of math questions, they still have a lot of difficulty doing well in the quantitative section on the GMAT. In order to get a decent score on the test, it is necessary to do well not only on Problem Solving, but also on Data Sufficiency.

 

 

 

 

Samples of data sufficiency problems:

 

If x ≠ 2, what is the value of
(1) x³ = 27
(2) ½ n has a remainder of 1.

 

a) statement 1 alone is sufficient to answer the question, but statement 2 alone is not sufficient
b) statement 2 alone is sufficient to answer the question, but statement 1 alone is not sufficient
c) both statements together are needed to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient
d) either statement by itself is sufficient to answer the question
e) not enough facts are given to answer the question

 

A sequence of different numbers beginning with 7 is created by multiplying a preceding number by the positive integer, N. What is the fifth number in the sequence?

(1) The 4th and 5th numbers differ by four times as much as the difference between the 2nd and 3rd numbers.
(2) The product of the 3rd and 4th numbers is 14 times larger than the 5th number.

 

a) statement 1 alone is sufficient to answer the question, but statement 2 alone is not sufficient
b) statement 2 alone is sufficient to answer the question, but statement 1 alone is not sufficient
c) both statements together are needed to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient
d) either statement by itself is sufficient to answer the question
e) not enough facts are given to answer the question
