Frequently Asked Questions
The GRE Quantitative section tests your ability to solve mathematical problems and analyze quantitative information. It covers arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis—typically at the high school level, but with complex problem-solving requirements. You'll encounter multiple-choice questions, numeric entry problems, and quantitative comparison questions across two 35-minute sections, with a score range of 130-170.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and study intensity, but most students see meaningful gains with focused preparation. Many students improve 5-10 points or more over 8-12 weeks of consistent practice with personalized guidance. The key is identifying your specific weak areas—whether that's algebra, data interpretation, or pacing—and targeting those through strategic practice and feedback.
Time management is the biggest challenge—many students rush through problems and make careless errors or run out of time. Understanding the unique question formats (especially quantitative comparison) takes practice, and data interpretation questions often trip up students who haven't worked with charts and graphs recently. Additionally, test anxiety can impact performance, making it harder to think clearly under pressure.
A tutor can diagnose your specific weak areas through practice tests and targeted problems, then create a study plan that addresses gaps rather than having you review everything. They'll teach you test-taking strategies like working backwards from answer choices, managing time across different question types, and building confidence through repeated exposure to challenging problems. This personalized approach is far more efficient than generic test prep.
Most students benefit from 8-12 weeks of preparation, meeting 1-2 times per week with a tutor while doing independent practice in between sessions. Your timeline depends on your starting score, target score, and how much time you can dedicate weekly. If you're starting significantly below your goal, you may want 12-16 weeks; if you're already scoring in your target range, 4-6 weeks of focused refinement might be enough.
Your first session typically focuses on assessment and planning. You'll likely take a practice test or work through sample problems so a tutor can understand your current level, identify patterns in your mistakes, and learn about your target score and timeline. From there, you'll develop a customized study plan that prioritizes your biggest opportunities for improvement.
Practice tests are essential—they help you get comfortable with the format, build stamina for the full exam, and reveal exactly where you're losing points. Taking full-length practice tests under timed conditions every 2-3 weeks lets you track progress and adjust your study strategy. Between full tests, targeted practice on specific question types or topics is most effective for skill-building.
