The best way to approach the Quant section is to focus on understanding concepts first, not just solving questions quickly. Topics like arithmetic, algebra, number properties, and word problems make up most of the test—so make sure you’re clear on the basics.

Once your concepts are strong, move to practice questions by topic. Don’t try to solve everything at once. Break it into small daily goals—like 15–20 questions on just number properties or data sufficiency.

Start taking timed quizzes once you feel confident with individual topics that help you build speed and accuracy. Also, review your mistakes carefully. Understanding why you got something wrong is just as important as getting it right the next time.

In the final stretch, take 2–3 full mock tests, just like the real exam. This helps with time management and builds test-day stamina.

So instead of just solving tons of questions, build a routine that mixes learning, practice, review, and mock testing. That’s what makes a real difference.
