Appreciated. I'm really sorry to say, while it may exist, I didn't find it. That's what this channel will become. Should've been already. Blame some bad luck 🤣 what i can recommend though is methodically search for the broadest techniques first. By which i mean, personally, (biased) my translation method as a starter for all questions. Then methodically go through a bunch of QUESTIONS, not materials, 500-600 and 600-700, official, on gmat club (not 700-800 until crushing all prior (hint: your score is sick once thats done, screw the 700-800 with a few exceptions for the extra knowledge but 500-600 and 600-700 90% of time then 700-800 just scanning through for new knowledge not solving questions really. Just not a good way of learning. Anyway! So you have a basic overall question approach down for all questions via practicing because obviously a high worth skill (every question...) (*cough* translation*cough*). That solves....a lot. Then you go through these official questions seeing if you can solve them. 500-600 first. Really really should be fast, all, before moving on. Wont be at all at first. That way you identify your good methods, lacking knowledge, and lacking methods. So you search around on specific question types you're slow at or cant do (say open 30 500-600 'divisibility' questions - should cover all knowledge for that level. Manually working through topic by topic 500-600. You will find ones you cant do. Or are slow or find hard. Those you know are bloody easy. You're missing knowledge or technique. So you search until you find one reliable technique you like. And you pay attention to how easy those questions are now. Thats a LONG process but pretty simple and efficient by definition. Why learn techniques for ones you're doing well on? Now 600-700. Immediately youll notice vastly better at these. But holes. New knowledge and method gaps. So repeat. Methodical. Long. But then you're 99% done. Don't rush this bit it's LONG. 700-800 you dont solve yet. You do the same: divisibility, OG questions only, 30 700-800. You look for new missing KNOWLEDGE not just hard questions. Will be obvious. One example being modulus: 700-800 suddenly you have 2-3 modulus signs and all your methods break. Learn the knowledge when found. This shouldn't take anywhere near as long as 600-700. Now, if you want practice doing hard questions you can do some 700-800 knowing you're not missing knowledge. Otherwise you're mixing difficulty with missing knowledge and they are not the same thing. Difficulty takes years and years to meaningfully start crushing them. Knowledge takes a few weeks. Hope difference is obvious. Truthfully if you are able to crush the 500-700s now faster than the time usually you'll have time to solve the hard ones, or some of them. But they truly don't matter like the easy ones. Very counter intuitive but just think of your score as rising up to a level and trying to survive there. All easy and medium correct, some hard right, some wrong, you've done Damn well. 760 type well on old test. Bit better on hards at cost of 1-2 easy/med? 700. Scoring dumb. People worry way too much about hard qs. Get the knowledge and that includes techniques. That gets you easy and med correct and speed and knowledge so you have time and knowledge to solve the hard ones. Which don't matter you're now 760-790 deciding. (800 is all right, 790 I got 9 wrong once...)

I hope that makes sense and provides some structure? Very easy to search for methods on a particular question, gnat club, youtube, internet generally etc. Thats my style of teaching for what it's worth anyway. It's literally all your prep from 0 to fully ready outlined in, by definition, the most efficient you'll get outside of me finishing this channel or getting a damn good tutor (RARE)

Didn't fully, just gist and frankly bad technique. Biggest tip and please listen to this seriously: Easy wrong due to taking 10 seconds instead of 20 saves you 10 seconds at the cost of 50 points. Very hard right because spent 5mins not 4 maybe 10 points? Imagine your score is snakes and ladders and you want to Finish high. Contrary to expectations AND time taken/saved I've gotten 780 with 11 wrong and 760 with 5 wrong. 760 was 2 easy Qs silly mistakes early knocking me so far down I wasn't given hard Qs in time to recover. Master 500-600, spend time and get 600-700 right then fuck all 700-800; you climb up snd have small snakes down for the wrong hards

Try it in a mock btw and do NOT have any quant areas you suck at. Get. The easy. Qs. Right

Then cling on with a horrible test of hard Qs from like q10 on.where you think you did shit cos had to guess LOADS of Qs

See what score you get. But google your wrong answers to see if 5-6, 6-7 or 7-8. Any easy wrong RIP score but know that's an area you lack knowledge. Go study it.

@@thetutordl thanks brotheer

:) back. Lots to do. Never left just life throws curveballs sometimes!

@ ahh that’s so great to hear!!! Welcome back :))

Make 1% profit on a billion and 100% loss on a dollar and you're now a decamillionaire. Size matters 😉

Correct way ;) gmat club forums filter for all the official gmat types:)

Not stupid at all. I think of it this way: can you answer a student asking the QUESTION (no statements) fully either way with certainty? I.e. 1) lets me know for certain he's wrong, or he's right, or is exactly the answer and misses no other answers

Worth spending some time actually thinking about it in a way you like and engraining it as your question is exactly why even I would click the wrong answer if i forgot that's the criteria, not just a positive yes etc

If understood your example would be yes you can tell your student the answer to his question

Though as a confusing addendum unlikely for them to ask which statements prove x is odd if the answer is actually that it's not. More commonly 1 may prove its always odd, or 0, for example, as a little trick, so insufficient. Cant recall them asking anything as a definite task of proof that wasn't right. "Is x even?" Very different to 'which proves x is definitely even?'. Rambled on but shows how not stupid question is. Unless find example for me I'd assume student doesn't say anything I'd have to reply with "No you cant prove that because it's wrong in the first place". More common is simply "No x isn't always even because:" in response to them asking "is it always even?" Not "prove it's always even" (arrogant wrong student unlikely 😂)

A student could ask me, "how do i prove all primes >2 odd?" But wouldn't ask me: "how do i prove all primes odd?" As the latter is "you don't, you're wrong, 2"

As we don't know x's sign, we can't perform a division like you proposed. Check his previous video (ep6) to learn more on inequalities.

Appreciated. If still prepping: writing big post for 800 vid and channel posts - posting tomoz :)

Am well now 😉

@@thetutordl yep still prepping, aim to give mine in by 7th jan , mocks show 80-85 in verbal and 70-75 in both quant and DI so real struggling in that ( math has never been my strong suit)

Saved. Investigating. ❤

No he doesn't but see new comment

Oof what would've made it better? (Genuinely)

also wow thanks for this ur a lifesaver

No worries. Not to be mean but afraid 0 because statics Q not moving so no air resistance ☺️ agree weirdly hard. Favorite one to immediately go to to teach "what can I do?" Instead of wtf should I do. You could've labelled forces were you thinking that for marks. But you asked what should I do and ofc cos mean question answer was 'fuck knows' lol.

Shameful error you're right. New method these days, but anyway these videos were quickly done for students. slightly embarrassed so many others seeing now lol

Will keep them up as seem to be helpful but as soon as fully proper better ones released will delete as was never expecting more than 10 views 🤣

@@thetutordl Wow, your page is like a hidden gem for people struggling in quants, like me. Solving with you gives me confidence in tougher questions. Didn't know you were planning on releasing new videos. I'll be waiting.

Great to hear thank you. These as mentioned were made quickly for students eyes and somehow one of them is near 100k views when 10 was my expectation. Great to see even the quick ones helped people and such nice comments everywhere - like this (plus 40 to 1760 subs with no uploads for years 😂) - have definitely motivated me to make a full proper guide to focus start to finish. should all be done by now but as previously moaned about, life has had other ideas preventing even tutoring for 18 months now :( but all hopefully done now and after a little bit of recovery and maybe a quick holiday fully intending to get it all done in 2024. But no promises other than when life lets me do a bloody thing this is top priority work wise. Very excited to kick off with a focus 805 in sub half time - this was all 2 months into first hearing about gmat and did work on improving after ahaha.. Hoping with good thumbnail, seo'd, audio and me visible it'll get some clicks expecting clickbait 😉 also having enquired believe It's a World record in the old so with 805 being harder expecting it in focus which will of course go in the title... No point making guides if nobody sees!and on a personal more selfish level, the youtube channel once complete is the perfect way for me to feel comfortable moving ever more elitist only with my actual tutoring rates 🤣 yt always free and will be the start, journey and end for people for focus which for some reason didn't exist for the old gmat. not many smart people seem to go into tutoring and stay and actually love it so perfectly happy to be the exception and get very well paid for doing what i love flexibly :) done the investment banking and offered a silly hedge fund salary but tutoring is fantastic for my true friend network of investors, is flexible, fun, allows KZbin and my ai startup and does tend to become well compensated if you go independent, care enough to become the best and, yes, are gifted academically. truly think in the UK especially it is way too hidden as a career option. - teacher pay is awful but thankfully tutor pay let me realise I could pursue it as a career. Genuinely think UK top end salaries goes; entrepreneurs, hedge funds/vc/pe, investment bankers, best tutors. I started thinking it was a stop gap while I figured out where to go next as NOBODY thinks of tutor as a career/good job here. so glad i researched a bit:) definitely one of my 2 callings. Written for anyone in the UK reading this! (Different in the US as your careers don't tend to often get stuck at 50k and 'top out' for all but the serious top dogs at 100-150 - in London those are to be read as "avoiding poverty" and "great can start saving for a house now I'm 33" (UK, not US, is a TRUE example of capitalist exploitation and everyone here is oblivious to how poor/getting poorer the UK truly is...*end of random rant.... consider tutoring uk smart readers 🤣*

Many thanks :) You're correct but rewatch and you'd see your mistake I bet - we don't know N/M is an integer, that's what were hoping to find out. So without knowing that, 3N/M = integer doesn't mean N/M = integer: example n=2 m=3. n/m = 2/3, 3n/m = 2. So basically just the question a bit harder; logic goes other way and q is asking us if we can be sure, given the other info given, that n/m is an integer given that these multiples are integers. usually the answer would be no, that's useless info, but were sneakily given other useful info in question. Probably one of the best examples of a question I've seen that is truly WTF? unless you just focus on translating their paragraph of gibberish down to what they're telling us, at which point imo it's still hard (all of the examples tend to be 700-800) but certainly easier to grapple with/understand wtf is being asked.

​​@@thetutordl What I understand from here is that we need to find all N is the interval which is divisible by a certain M divisible by M*3 cause that's what you did. If for example I take N to be 18 and M to be 6, 18/6=3, but 3(9/6), will make 3/2 (N/M) not to be an integer Whereas if we take N=13a, where a/M is an integer, then in 13N/M, (N/M) will still give us an integer

@@takoutsingsheilla5551 Not sure I followed but basically it's just a very simple case of there being a prime number on top for certain that cannot be on the bottom (all must cancel on bottom for integer). 13 does this as M is 12 or less. 3 doesn't cos M =6 has a 3

X must be > -1 as required, saying that doesn't mean it has to work for everything >-1 😉. Simpler example: equation has solution x=2, what is certainly true about x? x>-1. hope helps

I truly wish I could. I've gone quiet because I'm not a complainer and it got silly but truthfully the amount of health problems and then crime from family no less the world has chucked my way is so obscene that for the first time in 6 years I can't even tutor (physically as in place to live sort out all other stuff) which since these are all random 'crappy' videos for my students is hopefully obviously something I love

Not to mention I HATE making promises and then failing; odds of this stuff I swear! Frustrated can't make these videos, tutor and on top launch my ai startup which has been 8000 hours in the making and is 200 from launch. Not whining so much as horribly frustrated

I can however, if you give me time to find somewhere to live (don't ask 🤣), give my number if you email me at [email protected] and have a long chat sometime say in a week? As small as that sounds, I do believe it's likely to make your prep vastly more efficient after :) No charge for that - despite all this I did make it quite high in the tutoring world and have made some very good investments so luckily that is one thing I don't have to worry about ((not rich lol just cash buy a 1 bed flat in London levels which is far from destitute and yes I'm proud of doing so in 5yrs of tutoring following by going on 2yrs of stolen life hopefully coming to an end! (28 now so not that ancient yet lol). All I can say is this channel is important to me for the original reason but now also for US contacts for my startup who will hopefully trust me if I make outrageous claims like "would you like $30k a year? 100pg doc, odd button click, legal or I'm off to prison for life on 10000 misdemeanors 🤣 and obviously commission but otherwise don't want a thing from you." sounds awfully suspicious I know but....8000hrs and several years and means the states will FINALLY let me in after first 2 years building in UK. All that is to say, 100,000 subs who know I'm smart and tend to like helping people might mean a couple thousand US contacts to then ofc spread like wildfire when I make good. Therefore this channel IS being finished and assuming no more ridiculous infernos life should return in a couple of months here. ....sorry ranted a bit at you. Frustrated would be my word; finally figured out how to use my gift to give and 2yrs of BS says no 🤣 (not a saint, chasing dopamine like everyone else and for the record fully intend to become a billionaire with my startup and if only I'd recorded the 800 in 62 mins might seem more plausible 😉 pending no more infernos. those i cannot predict. Why screw you all over with infernos on me though God? Seems mean. 🤣

@@thetutordl I sent an email on June 18th

Apologies just saw now will reply with number and ask you to WhatsApp me :)

aqa technically but they're 90% similar with recommendations to contrast to your papers and if similar use but take note of the 1-2 q types not included. edexcel for example loves q on open closed pipes, aqa not. capacitors ocr loves 6marker on slow discharge then charge periodically etc.

Incorrect

More to come!

forces come in pairs. theres an fg up on earth. dont bother labelling pairs usually cos who cares ground being pushed down, but it is. here ground matters

also wouldn't think of it as special reaction to mg. just something stopping everything inside from falling out... note no R stopping lift cos literally no ground to push it up. reaction forces to any force IF something stopping it from moving otherwise F=ma... i use r1 r2 etc not N because not special. r3 comes in with walls sideways for example. respectfully trying to help when I say not a waste of time to open some awful qs like step questions in mechanics and just see if you can label the important double reactions and double frictions of say 3 spheres one on top of 2 triangular. important doubles, always one force in double on each object. one of the laws, (2?) every action opposite reaction. mg up on earth is best example of this.

mess this up rip whole question. don't...well forces 2 directions and moments and then solve simultaneously and done confidently right. wrong forces labelled 90% wrong answers. 8% silly, 2% moments wrong!

working on it. I'm almost healthy and have actually started typing away. videos in future will include one ""like this"" for focus but not done in 90 mins for a students request! about 2 weeks from recovered from a nearly 2 yr illness, THEN I get to do it finally:')

maths at Cambridge kinda cheating ahaha. and tutor... but yes OG ONLY and almost none above 600-700 diff. and all that matters is topic by topic and search for the easiest questions you can't do...more soon :)

Was for students but honestly bit disappointed lack of views:, If I said it did would you agree it's bizarrely easy? Can't promise 1 bullet point won't change check your syllabus. What I can promise is it's 95,-100% and I hope you asked like, that's it? Practice, same for integration. You stumbled across these and they're together handy- int my expectation is that vid takes 5-10hrs. Then these combined lol you will see just how much time and pain you cleverly snuck past. Hope was useful!
