[@monicahaase3534]

I agree with falling in love with the exam! It's so fascinating! I just gotta get a better score. Congrats dude!

[@Silverdrift]

My biggest takeaway from this video - if you get a question CORRECT but you aren't exactly sure about it and you move on thinking you understood the concept, then this does more harm than getting a question WRONG

[@coltonstogner4363]

absolutely

[@tikiortaka]

This is probably the best GMAT Test Taker prep video on KZbin. Amazing Job!!

[@pareshbawane]

This was amazing! Thank you Colton for these amazing insights and GMAT Club for making this happen❤️

[@abcdshah4184]

Summary - LSAT - CR Veritas prep - SC 8 to 10 mins per question 8 to 10 hours per day for Verbal Stick to official question

[@abcdshah4184]

Spending time on question, until you get correct answer

[@abcdshah4184]

Guessing will never help

[@thomasferradini3549]

This video is absolutely amazing and I see myself a lot in Colton - I'll try to deconstruct the exam as he did, hopefully it will work as well as for him!

[@coltonstogner4363]

thanks for the kind words and best of luck. feel free to reach out if you have any questions - happy to help

[@Brindapr]

This guy aced this test by breaking down the test and using first principles to learn the material and strategize about the exam.

[@SAUPAYANMAZUMDAR]

@GMATNinja thanks for these motivational sessions and everything else. Just finished my GMAT an hour ago with a 760 (Q51 V41) Can’t thank you enough and didn’t know what the right forum was for doing do. So here goes🙂

[@surjeemabasu2172]

Sorry I didn't catch it well, but which mock exam did he appear for before starting his preparation?

Does anyone wants a friend to practice rc and sc with?

Thanks I learnt a lot about the strategies.thanx GMAT club

[@lordchosen19]

Colton I am your Charles !!!

[@sankalpjetty6139]

@charles Please tell where to practice LSAT reading comprehension questions from ! Is it from Manhattan prep LSAT RC ???

[@faaizmasood9338]

Where do you find LSAT RC passages?

[@gmatclub]

Go to GMAT Club question bank; In RC section, enable "Official LSAT" tag from source tags. You can do similar for LSAT CR questions. gmatclub.com/forum/search.php?view=search_tags

[@Shalzfactor]

Does this guy know he is talking to Charles? Every time he refers to him by name while referencing his work. 😅 what exactly is that ?

[@coltonstogner4363]

i alternated between talking to charles and talking to the audience but definitely see how it could come across as odd lol

[@AnkitPandey-yy2km]

How to know that I have a good understanding of concept and I can go for the full practice? In SC, shall I worry about the grammar, though I have finished Manhattan SC book. Still I make error in SC for the reason not mentioned in that. And, how shall I improve my CR and RC. Is it more practice (with thorough review)? I do have list of the topics in quant in which I make most mistakes. My exam is in 28 days. Please guide. Thank you.

[@gmatclub]

Hi. Who is this question to? If it is to Colton, you can probably post it here: gmatclub.com/forum/650-to-780-q49-v51-in-2-months-for-free-367197.html. Otherwise, perhaps in general on GMAT Club (start a new topic)

[@aayush481]

[@alvirarahman2690]

Which veritas prep sentence correction series is he referring to?

[@gmatclub]

Can you please mention the time stamp of the video where he is talking about Veritas SC series? In any case, Veritas Prep is now shut down so you are not going to get its study materials anyway.

[@alvirarahman2690]

Tinder for Gmat Prep? Study groups are amazing. Anyone giving the exam in a month!?

[@lucianopokoracky5174]

Do native speakers struggle with GMAT? 😢

[@coltonstogner4363]

IMO, being a native english speaker is helpful especially for sentence correction and reading comp; you likely start at a higher level. with that being said, it’s definitely possible to improve regardless of native language
