How to Prepare for the Quantitative Reasoning Section
In the two Quantitative Reasoning sections you will be asked to solve problems, analyze data, and compare quantities
to determine their relationship. This assessment area is designed to test your ability to apply mathematical principles

to real-
world situations and interpret data from visual presentations. In addition to the strategies we will explore in the
subsequent chapters, there are several tools included in this text to help you hone your approach to the Quantitative
Reasoning section. 
Math Primer 
Before launching into the Quantitative Reasoning chapters that discuss Quantitative Comparison and Problem Solving
in more detail, you should ensure that you work through the Math Primer in the following chapter, followed by a
problem practice set (chapter 12). The Math Primer will review key concepts in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data

interpretation. In terms of structuring your study plan for this section of the exam, the Math Primer should be your first
step, even if you have a strong math background. Many of the concepts tested on the GRE are high-
school level, and most test-
takers will not have seen the content for some time. It will best situate you to attack the section, avoid costly
mistakes, and adopt critical time-saving strategies. 
Problem Sets, Sample Tests, and Print/Online Explanations
After each subsequent chapter focused on a particular question type (chapters 13-
14), you will have the opportunity to
test out your understanding of the concepts with a problem set. Use these problem sets to apply the strategies discussed
in the chapter. Review the answer explanations to help you gain a better understanding of how to arrive at the correct
answer choices. Also plan to spend a good deal of time with the Practice Exam answer explanations, in both print and
online video formats, especially if some of the covered math concepts are proving difficult for you.
