Hi Philip, I just want to say a big thank you. Your channel really helped me, I wrote my GRE today and had a 167/170 in my quant and a 153/170 in my verbal, you really helped my quant. My issue essay was quite shaky unlike my argument essay though 🥲 Wish I leveraged the channel better for my essays. Thanks a lot, keep doing what you’re doing.

Wow! Sounds inspiring!! I have been following Philip from couple of months. Dear Jinadu, can i get some tips regarding GRE from you? May i get your e-mail? Thanks.

So your strategy for math is: 1. Simplify 2. Solve if possible (equations) 3. Plug in extremes and/or quantity B to determine final relationship. I would really like it if you did a video on your strategies for the verbal section, like how you attack the test, what you do first for each type of question (for Reading comp, do you read the passage or the question first?)

Yes, essentially, for the Quant. Obviously you also have to know a few tricks relating to ratios, percentages and other topics, and I hope to cover some of those soon. As plenty are asking about RC I will do a video on that in coming days.

I'm new to the channel but I have to say, I feel like I'm at the right place to ace my upcoming GRE test. 😊

This is amazing. Thanks a lot for these highly insightful videos.

I love your videos a lot, I am binge watching everything you have ever made. Thank you

using extremes is key. great video.

YOU ARE INCREDIBLE ✨💯

Probably that sense of knowing WHEN to use picking numbers or reasoning comes by practicing a lot of problems, at least 2000 questions, as you said in your 1st video.

If only I had discovered this sooner

Hey man, just wanted to say Ive been watching your videos for a month now and the vocab practice you do is great! I’m already increasing my vocab exponentially by doing your practice methods. I am now on the math portion and trying to strengthen my skills for that. I took the GRE last month and saw a lot of inequality questions as well as coordinate planes, and number property questions. I’m taking it again next Tuesday and was wondering if you had any extra tips that I can squeeze in for the quant portion of the GRE. Thanks again for uploading these videos they are really helping

I am so happy to see this video and find someone smart to agree with me. It's so painful for me to read a prepation book that uses picking numbers for so many questions that I can solve easily and quickly. BTW, do you talk like this in real life or do you slow down for people to better understand you?

@TheTestedTutor

thx phill

I feel the last problem is a combination of number picking and logic . The equation is pretty obvious to state that "1" is one of its root , hence (x-1) has to be it's factor .Now if we match the constant i.e 7 we easily conclude the other factor is (x-7) PS : i watch all of your videos , it does help gre prep

In the first question, one could equate them where, 3^x =? 2*2^x 1.5^x =? 2, since here ? can't be removed for x> 0, hence the answer is d.

Please upload more videos and with more frequency. May be 2 videos per week. God bless you in advance :)

@TheTestedTutor

4 жыл бұрын

I will try! Thank you for asking.

The first example could be simplified to 1.5 exponent x=? 0.5. Since x is and integer greater than 0, the above equation will not be fulfilled at any time. Therefore d is the answer

Can you do some tutorial on ratios and proportions.

Hey! Can you please suggest how I should go for RCs. I just get irritated and confused when I go through a passage, sometimes even thrice and still don't get some answers. Specifically, multiple correct and questions like, The author does all of the following except! Now I will have to look into the passage several times for each option! That is tough. Do you have any tricks or idea about how one should attack any RC? I'll b glad if you suggest something.
