    Tutoring Tips: Three Tips for a 700+ GMAT Score

    Tutoring Tips: Three Tips for a 700+ GMAT Score

    In Episode 261 of the Prepped and Polished Podcast, Aaron shares three tips that students can use to boost their GMAT scores about how to approach questions in the Quantitative Comparison section on the ISEE Math Test so students can boost their scores.

    The three tips are:

    1. Create a Realistic Timeline:

    Decide when you want to start and when you actually want to take the test.

    2. Be prepared for the Quantitative Integrated Learning Section:

    This is good for students who haven't taken math classes for a while, to give them time to study the way the questions are presented and practice problems.

    3. Understand the order of the GMAT:

    Tests can come with sections in different orders. Being aware of the orders of the test will help you work through the test more efficiently. It will also help you create "process of elimination strategies for different question types."

Sound & Actionable Advice for Families on the College Admissions Journey

Alexis has been hosting this amazing podcast for over six years—that says a lot about the host and the usefulness of its content. Personally, I am an IEC (independent educational consultant) and a mother of four. I’ve been in education for over 25 years and find Alexis’ perspective and guests insightful. Thanks, #preppedandpolished
