Time Management Tips for GMAT Success

Time Management

Time management is critical for GMAT success, both during preparation and on test day. With my 35+ years of tutoring experience in NYC, I’ve seen how effective time strategies lead to Ivy League admissions. Here are essential tips to manage your time:

  1. Create a Study Schedule: Dedicate specific hours weekly to Quant, Verbal, and Integrated Reasoning. Stick to a plan that balances strengths and weaknesses.
  2. Prioritize High-Impact Topics: Focus on areas with the most questions, like Problem Solving in Quant or Reading Comprehension in Verbal.
  3. Use Practice Tests Wisely: Take full-length tests under timed conditions to mimic the real GMAT and track your pacing.
  4. Develop a Test-Day Strategy: Allocate time per section—about 2 minutes per Quant question and 1.5 minutes per Verbal question. Skip and return to tough questions.
  5. Rest and Reflect: Schedule breaks to avoid burnout and review practice test results to adjust your strategy.
