First, there is no clear understanding of GMAT.
GMAT580-7 10, before I started preparing for GMAT, my IELTS score was 7.5 (reading 8), so when I started preparing for GMAT,
I took it as an English exam and thought I had a good language foundation. Before the first exam, I didn't even finish the OG exam. At 580, the whole person was stunned. At that time, my classmate GMAT 700+, I watched the score cancel decisively.
(1) misunderstanding:
At the beginning of preparing for GMAT, we must have a clear understanding of GMAT. GMAT is different from TOEFL IELTS, focusing not on English proficiency, but on logical analysis and business thinking. A classmate once told me that GMAT is a very smart and respectable opponent, so it must be taken seriously. Only by knowing him can we break through him ~
(2) Solution:
Every part of the OG(officeguide) book has a detailed explanation of this item and some corresponding methods. Everyone must read carefully at the beginning of preparing for the exam. Sure, pressure relief valve ·GMAT?
There is also an inventory of basic popular science and individual knowledge points on the APP, so you can find out.
Second, why can I get high marks if I don't practice enough?
I took the GMAT three times, and the first two scores were extremely low. In the final analysis, I still blame myself for not reviewing enough. I found an internship during that time, and I was under great pressure. Every day, I struggled to give up halfway. Finally, I received a lot of encouragement from my "comrades-in-arms" in the Gregmat preparation exchange group, only then did I have the courage to plan my time well and prepare for the exam carefully, and finally GMAT points.
(1) misunderstanding:
According to the GMAC data survey, the age distribution of GMAT candidates in China is mainly concentrated in the range of 23-26 years old, of which more than 80% are juniors, seniors, graduate students and on-the-job students. Many candidates may need to take into account their studies/work when preparing for the exam. GMAT~ so practice will not be enough. We say that GMAT does not recommend marine tactics, but the necessary practice is certain. After mastering the correct methods and skills, we need quantitative practice to make a breakthrough!
(2) Solution:
I suggest that when you start preparing for the GMAT exam, you should make a detailed GMAT preparation plan according to your own situation and do it strictly according to the plan. Of course, it's not because of time constraints, but because of lazy students who haven't practiced enough. I suggest you smoke it yourself first ~
Third, you are drunk if you practice too much.
Speaking of preparing for the GMAT exam, I really took a lot of detours. Now I think it's really a storm crying o(___)o, because I was born with a bad brain, and my friend who was going abroad was abused like a dog when he took the chicken and wheat test, so I started the gyro-style combat mode as soon as I reviewed it. I finished all the questions I could do during World War I and brushed them twice! ! ! Preparing for World War II is embarrassing! ! ! ! The topic of GMAT is limited, so everyone must come leisurely, not like me! !
(1) misunderstanding:
As mentioned earlier, there is not enough practice. This is a big taboo for GMAT preparation, and it is also a mistake that many students often make-sea tactics. First of all, we need to make it clear that the GMAT exam is not an exam that can be won by accumulating a large number of brush questions for a long time. The official topic information is really limited, okay? I want to review, but I remember all the answers. Who knows the pain that each problem can do?
(2) Solution:
There is a wise saying in GMAT preparation that "it is better to sum up than to do new questions". Doing the problem is not the key, but getting the intention of the questioner from the problem and mastering the knowledge points is the key. So, slow down the speed of doing the problem.
Improving the efficiency of doing problems is the correct way to kill g.
(3) Summary skills
The most honest: handwritten notes
Medium level: classified and summarized online through software such as Youdao Notes.
Top level: Gray. Com, with its own note-taking function, realizes the same screen of notes, saving time and effort and facilitating the second review in the later stage.
Fourth, misuse of information is a taboo.
It is a famous saying that "if a worker wants to do a good job, he must sharpen his tools first". I think the biggest advice is to use the correct information. I usually like to visit various post-it forums. When I was preparing for GMAT, I really watched all kinds of high scores shared by great gods, and then collected a lot of information. Later, my thinking was completely off track, and my exam results were naturally imaginable ~
(1) misunderstanding:
Did you see the great god experience? Yes! But how to look at it, some students may have used the wrong method. At present, there are a lot of GMAT reference materials on the market. Many students may use the wrong information, or blindly use the information after reading the recommendation of the great god without making a choice according to their actual situation.
(2) Solution:
Regarding the selection of materials, it is suggested to give priority to official topics, supplemented by other materials. After all, it was the topic of GMAC Party A, and you read Party B's information, which must be putting the cart before the horse.
(3) Recommended information: OG, PREP(07/08/ 12, official model test software)
A thorough understanding of these three parts of information is enough for you to cope with the exam. OG is very simple, but it completely contains the knowledge points to be examined in GMAT exam, so don't underestimate it! Is there any other information on the market that is universal/recommended by Great God? You can take a proper look and play an auxiliary role.
Five, neurotic star people are even hopeless.
Speaking of GMAT's preparation experience, to be honest, the old irons must relax their mentality. When I took the first exam, I was shaking all the time and my palms were sweating. I spent a lot of time on the first 10 question. I was so nervous that I didn't turn my head. I really feel that the whole person has been hollowed out after the exam, and the key scores are particularly invisible. Everyone who walks out of the examination room is floating.
(1) misunderstanding:
The management and adjustment of self-emotion is also a part of GMAT. It is very important to keep a clear head in such an environment, whether it is the CAT mode lifting library or the 3 hours and 46 minutes examination time. In Zhihu, I saw a candidate tell me about his experience. He was helped out of the examination room by the invigilator a few minutes after the exam started, because he was too nervous. It looks a little funny, but it's very distressing!
Many GMAT candidates actually find it difficult to prepare for the exam. It's really not worth paying so much if it's just because of emotional problems. There is another kind of students, if they change libraries before the exam, their mentality will collapse and they will abandon the exam and switch to too many exams, which involves the problem of chicken essence. Let's talk about the next part!
(2) Solution:
Ways to relieve tension:
A. necessary model test training. Before the exam, we should carry out model test training in strict accordance with the exam process, get used to the exam rhythm and adapt to the exam atmosphere.
B. self-suggestion/distraction
C. Adequate preparation for exams, many students' nervousness actually stems from lack of self-confidence and inadequate preparation, because adequate preparation for exams can alleviate the tension in exams to a certain extent.
Six, the machine is a double-edged sword.
After passing the GMAT, I finally realized that TOEFL was scum in any previous final exam. GMAT is really beyond your imagination! About three days before the exam, I started watching chicken essence crazily.
Then I went to the examination room with confidence, and the exam really met me. I read three articles, and the more I do, the more comfortable I get. It's really flattering to think that we can finally break up this time, but it's really embarrassing to finish the capitalized 590 on the screen! Fucking ...
(1) misunderstanding:
Chicken essence is only liked by the big candidates in our country, which is a shortcut to the exam. However, because of the existence of chicken essence, many candidates began not to review carefully, trying to put all their scores on chicken essence, or began to recite chicken essence before the exam. Wrong way! What we need to know is that chicken essence can only be icing on the cake, not a timely help. Instead of relying on a probability event, it is better to put time on improving your own strength!
(2) Solution:
The correct usage of chicken essence: no answers, no answers, no answers!
The most important thing is that math and reading are the most important things in GMAT chicken essence, but because the dog trainer's memory is limited, it is easy to make mistakes. We suggest that the correct use of mathematics should be to understand the problem-solving methods and thinking steps through chicken essence, and carefully read the article to analyze the logical framework, logic and grammar. Of course, it is not impossible to recite the answers to the questions that you can't learn, and it is not impossible to take a chance in the exam.
