GRE Quant | Powerprep Mock 1 Quant Solutions | Learn from a 170/170 scorer | Ace the GRE

[@HenryTechBoy]

Wonderful video! Was great going through the questions with you, pausing to answer them myself first, then listening to what you had to say. However, for Question 19 I think the inequality should be 40,410

[@ChiragThakur09]

in this section, I got 12 correct but I didn't know where I was making mistakes. Your video gave lucid explanations which helped me a lot.

[@thinkandlearn7258]

Happy to hear this, Thank You:)

[@thinkandlearn7258]

if any doubts, Please comment. I will try my best to reply. Plus, you all can also help each other. Good luck for scoring a perfect score :)

[@haha6285]

Learning - X Thanks for the solutions. Hope to see the other solutions of other mock tests soon. One thing I wanted to ask is that how similar is the difficulty level of the actual test as compared to the mock tests?

[@thinkandlearn7258]

Very similar. One or two questions might be on a difficult side.

[@Sunny-185]

@@thinkandlearn7258 is it level one or 2 ?

[@suri4Musiq]

Awaiting the answers for quant section 2... Please upload :)

[@nancysewell769]

Please NOTE: "into" is for division. Multiply is "times." FYI

[@anushanekkanti9399]

This video was very helpful.. please add a similar video for verbal section as well.

[@dhvaneshshah7820]

thank you buddy..! you are doing an excellent job..! like quant, upload verbal also.. :) it will be great help

[@meetpatel8793]

Useful !!

[@KageManTV]

This has been amazing, thanks for the videos! When will you upload the second part of the powerpre test 1?

[@bulbulahamed97]

where is quant section 2,, please help..

[@thisisrohan]

In question 7, there is no mention of the list in the numbers being integers. So x and x^2 can be decimal values. Suppose x=0.5 then x^2 will be 0.25. Here both these numbers come out to be less than 1 and root 2. So the andwer should be D right. Am I making a mistake somewhere?

[@thinkandlearn7258]

Very well thought. But here is the catch. The Range of the 4 numbers given is 4. If you choose x less than 1, the range can never be 4. I appreciate your thinking, exactly this is required to be able to score 170. You are on a right track, Best of luck!!

[@thisisrohan]

Got it! Thank you!

[@hemanth_chowdary111]

Sir official gre test is Also like this or not i got 19 in this section is it good to take my gre exam

[@Rose-db6vy]

can someone please tell me in q 18 why is r=3 isnt diameter /2 =radius shouldnt it be 1.5?

[@fakedeveloper3380]

i have a query, at question no 9 , it has asked for tens and units but thats basically the last two digit to the left of decimal point, right ?

[@AyushKohli]

In question 16 why are we not multiplying by 300? Each person gives 3 ratings for ABC in each category

[@ChiragThakur09]

please also make a video on section 2 of quant.

[@bulbulahamed97]

good job, thanks a lot.

[@meganschwarzinger1144]

I’m confused with the last question. I’m not sure where you’re getting 3/2 for 50% increase? Thank you

[@suhrudgodbole5243]

Megan Schwarzinger So in terms of decimals, a 50% increase is 1.5. So 3/2 here is 50% increase. 10% increase is 1.1, etc. 50% decrease is 0.5. Let me give you an example. Suppose you have $100. If there is 50% decrease in your money, you are left with $50 which is as good as 0.5 * 100. Similarly, if there is a 50% increase in your money, it will be as good as 1.5 * 100. Hope this clears your doubt.

[@piumallick232]

Hello! When can we expect the other videos for POWERPREP solutions?

[@nancysewell769]

Question 7 of 20--the range numbers are not visible. FYI

[@speedgaming8131]

For Q9, can't we use a calculator?

[@abdullahb4367]

Thank you very much for your explanation! I knew exactly how to solve the powerprep tests even though I did not score the maximum, but when I went to the real exam, i scored only Q159. I only studied for a month using magoosh and did the 2 ETS powerprep tests + the free Manhattan test. I noticed in the exam I knew most of the problems but had little time to solve them, therefore made me make silly mistakes. Do you have a better method to solve fast? or a course I can buy to help me with speed? as in how to recognize what they are actually asking me immediately, this would help immensely! Thank you again, among all youtubers, I like your explanation the most :)

[@thinkandlearn7258]

Thank you so much for appreciating the work. I actually solved all the Quant questions twice on the GRE to be 100 percent sure that all my questions r correct. Follow the following strategy for time management: 1. While you r solving for the first time(Reading the ques for first time.) And if you think that a certain question is difficult and will take more than a minute, leave that. 2. Complete all easy ques (around 15 ques r easy) 3. Then solve the ques you left. 4. Revisit all ques again so that u find ques where u have committed silly mistakes. 5. Revisiting ques is a skill and u must be able to workout problems faster when revisiting.

[@abdullahb4367]

Thank you for the reply! My problem is that how to decide early if its hard or not; for example a word problem with 3 lines question will take me at least 30sec to comprehend the Q let alone solve.. does that mean I should skip all word problems at first round? I think you should consider doing your next vids about test strategies/time management, they are more crucial than learning the content in my opinion. The content is high school math only; the execution is the secret sauce lol

[@suhrudgodbole5243]

Abdullah B How much did you score on the ets powerprep tests?

[@abdullahkhan-mf7pg]

I cant find the mock tests in my GRE account please help me.

[@victoriapope5371]

thank you!

[@ramam5384]

Is the level of these questions the same as the actual GRE test ( for example if I score 157 in this practice does that means I can score this mark in the actual one) ??

[@zabiahmed3092]

How did you derived 8N/9 in question 17?

[@mitshah2136]

Question 16 : 2.7/17.5 ×100 = 150

[@pratikgaikwad6931]

Can you please make the video for solutions of ETS practice test 2.

Sir please tell me

Gratitude!

[@livemore2953]

for queston b is greater.....

[@jeremygonzalez2368]

I have a question about the last problem. Where does the 3/2 come from?

[@thinkandlearn7258]

Hey, nice question. Now lets take an example. Lets say your no is 100. now increase it by 50%. So it becomes 150 i.e it becomes 1.5 times of original. 3/2 is nothing but 1.5 in fraction form.

[@afolabibholu9824]

@@thinkandlearn7258I was about to ask this

[@mrnobody1069]

In your 2question according to unitary method sugar for 12 cookies is 3/2 so sugar for 1 cookies is=3/2*1/12 the we get 1/8 so for 30 cookies we need1/8*30 by equating this we get 3.75 and we know that 3.75is bigger than 2 so answer will be “a” which is quantity a is greater .So I think you are mistaken 😇

[@zaidakhtar3093]

2 dozens doesn't mean 12 cookies. It means 24 cookies

[@harshmadnani1613]

Youre slightly wrong mate... 2cups makes 32 cookies... So opt B Since 3/2= 1.5 cups -> for 24 cookies (2 dozen) Now you can see that you can get an answer for 0.5 cups just by diving both sides by 3 i.e 0.5 cups -> for 8 cookies... Now add that 8 cookies to actual equation... 2cups -> for 32 cookies... I.e OPTION B is right

Hi JJ, great video! Do you have an email address for contact?

Thanks for this. But your explanations are too hard or you could use easier methods.
