Anyone who is appearing for a GMAT should understand the computer adaptive structure. This structure is used in order to test the candidate even more accurately. A question is put up in front of the candidate of certain difficulty level, if it is attempted correctly the difficulty level goes up otherwise it goes down. So the candidates must be preparing for all level of questions.
Tip #2
It is advisable to pay special attention to the first couple of questions because in the computer adaptive structure the first few questions determine the range of the candidate. Also a correct answer to a difficult question gives you more score than a correct answer to an easier one.
Tip #3
Answering a question incorrectly may hurt and feel like a loss but not more than not being able to complete the test. So the students should practice a lot in order to finish and attempt all question in time.
Tip #4
Once you have started answering the questions you shouldn't waste time in referring to the help screen, all of it should be done before itself. You may not be able to finish the test in time if you do such things.
Tip #5
One must read the questions carefully. This advice may sound a little one but is very important. The students take so much of mock test before that sometimes they don't read the questions completely and assume it to be something different and answer in hurry.
Tip #6
Once a question is presented to you, it has to be answered. So if you do not know the answer to any question avoid random guessing rather use educational guessing by using logistics and common sense.
Tip #7
Do not forget to take up mock tests. This will not only add to your practice but also give you an idea about the type of questions asked and will get comfortable with the pattern of the exam.
Tip #8
When a lot of practice has been done, you will get into a habit of choosing the correct option by your own method. But the best way to choose your answer is to cancel and ignore the deliberately wrong choices which will help you focus more.
Tip #9
The key to success in GMAT is practice and more of practice. Only practice can help you score well in GMAT. So one should keep practicing till the exam.
Tip #10
Though practice is important one must not extend the practice sessions. One shouldn't delay in taking up the test because it already takes time in registering. Also the confidence goes down with delay in exam.
