Mind Map | 3 Principles to boost your accuracy up to 50% on GMAT Data Insights

Frequently Asked Questions

What are "accuracy principles" and how do I use them in my GMAT prep?

“Accuracy principles” are behavioral principles which, if followed properly, will boost your accuracy when answering GMAT questions. Math formulae, basic English vocabulary and English grammar are accessible to all and easy to learn. The place where GMAT test-takers struggle the most is in following the right behaviors when answering questions. These accuracy principles are designed to bring your awareness towards specific behaviors that are common among top-scorers on the GMAT.

What is the best way to use this mind map?

Print it out and keep it in front of your as you solve GMAT questions. Pick each principle at a time and try to apply it across a set of 5-10 questions. Once you begin to feel comfortable with a principle, pick the next one and try to “layer” it on. The ultimate goal is to master all the principles and make them a part of your natural behavior when solving GMAT problems.

Is this an exhaustive list of accuracy principles?

No, this is not an exhaustive list. The mind map is just intended to represent a subset of the principles that Alex recommends. Even though this is not exhaustive, it should help you make significant progress in your GMAT prep. If you need additional help, follow my videos on YouTube.

Testimonials

“Fun, energizing, effective.”

Learning from Alex is fun, energizing and, most importantly, effective. I am not a native English speaker, and the Verbal section was a constant struggle for me. With coaching from Alex, I was not only able to solve more questions correctly but also able to change my mindset so that I started treating GMAT prep as a fun activity! I recommend his approach to the Verbal section to both native and bilingual English speakers.

“Drastic improvement in three weeks.”

I always hated Math growing up. When I gave GMAT the first time, I scored a 32 (20 percentile) on the GMAT Quant section. I was devastated and discouraged because I had already spent months preparing for the test. I contacted Alex for help because I was unable to diagnose what was going wrong. Alex worked with me 1:1 to help me identify behavioral issues with my approach. Turns out my problem was not being bad at remembering formulae or running calculations but at managing my emotions as I was solving problems. I was giving up too early, not willing to write things on paper, not using shorthand and so on. Thanks to fixing these issues, I saw a drastic improvement in my score in a matter of three weeks.
