Synopsis

31 problems. 62 minutes. No calculator at all. The GMAT Quantitative section is the only major admissions test that takes the calculator away completely — which makes raw arithmetic speed the cheapest score improvement available to you. This book is that improvement. Start with the 6-Minute Benchmark on page one: twelve problems, noteboard only, stopwatch running. Write the number down. On Day 28 you sit the same twelve again and measure the gap. Inside:

  • Eight chapters of mental-math shortcuts built for a no-calculator section
  • A Data Sufficiency decision tree — the test inside the test, where most of the avoidable points are lost
  • A 28-day speed log, and one "party trick" per chapter to keep the habit
  • 50 original GMAT-style practice problems with worked solutions, a standard approach for comparison, and a time check on each
  • A 4-week plan, cheat sheets, 50 common traps, score targets, and a Day 28 retest with a certificate
Every problem in this book is original. Nothing here reproduces a real GMAT question or comes from any official GMAC publication. Use it for speed alongside official practice material. For MBA applicants who can do the maths and keep running out of time.
