Ma’am,
Well, my math is always better than verbal but i’m really worried about one area related to “medians , quartiles standard deviations” ;their calculation – can you please please suggest a good link or anything else
Hi, Praneeth
That topic is pretty rare, so I wouldn’t worry too much about it, but here are some blog posts and a video to help you out:

Let me know if you have any other questions and I’d be happy to help!

Thanks a lot Ma’am this was exactly what I was looking for ;
one more thing ma’am -in a HISTOGRAM distribution is it enough to know that mean is greater than median?Do we have to learn how to calculate them too?
Usually you will not have to calculate them. Just knowing the distribution and the difference between the mean and median is sufficient.
Hey Chris, Can you come up with a 2 month study plan.. I registered my test date on sep 5
I am going to buy premium package.
Thank You
Hi Srihasha,
Actually, we have a 90 day study guide, which you can compress slightly to accomodate 2-months time frame. A good rule, as to not overburden yourself, is to do at least 80% of the recommended questions on the guide.
Here’s the link

Hi Margarette,
Thanks for the Maths formulas book, I found it so helpful for me!
Uhm, I just concern if there is a typo of the Quadratic formula?!
Thanks
It should be fixed now, thanks for catching that! Let us know if you find anything else!
seriously love you guys!! THANK YOU!!
You’re very welcome, I’m glad we could help!
i just started reading the formulas you compiled together. Excellent work, congrats
very useful, especially for those busy with verbal these days and lazy for math
Haha thank you! We’re happy to help
Margarette,
This isn’t germane to the particular topic but do you still do the ‘Practice question(s) of the week’?
I looked at some of your archived blog material and I found the questions to be challenging and educational.
Hi, Sammy
Yes, we discontinued Practice Question of the Week for a variety of reasons, but they were basically just questions and explanations from the database of practice questions in the Magoosh product– if you liked those questions, I’d definitely recommend signing up for a Premium Magoosh account!
Best,
Margarette
Oh okay, thanks! I found most of them to be hard yet feasible. Was this the purpose? Did you guys specifically pick out harder questions for your weekly practice problem?
The weekly questions were usually Medium to Hard. Generally, we avoided posting up particularly Easy ones because those seemed to provide less value to students. It’s more fun to have a tough problem and talk about various ways to tackle it as opposed to a simple practice question with a very straightforward answer
.
You guys did a great job! Definitely will look over this more closely and keep a copy until test day.
Thanks!

All ofnthe ebooks you provide are wonderful. I do have one suggestion. Can you make an ebook that includes important little tips and or strategies about particular topics? I know it sounds complicated, but from all the notes I have taken, I can explain more, again this is just a suggestion. Kind of like little things may not know that are vital to each property. Thanks so much.
Hi, Craig
Do you mean for concepts (ex: Geometry) or for question types (ex: Quantitative Comparison)? The Magoosh lesson videos are great for that, and you can always send us any questions about anything you find unclear. Let me know if I’ve misunderstood your suggestions!
Best,
Margarette
Kind of like knowing for example in a qc, mc, all that apply, etc, how can algebra, geometry, nmber property questions be asked?
Ah, I understand. That would be pretty tough, since each question can have a blend of concepts, with many, many combinations thereof. The best thing to do would be to try a lot of practice questions until you get a better feel for how to tell, at a glance, which concepts you need to know in order to answer it correctly.
I hope that makes sense! Let us know if you have any other questions or suggestions
Yea I am writing down that qc questions don’t ask must be statements. Knowing whether certain strategies always work in different question types, etc.
U guys should make an ebook on the math question area itself. Like the types of questions and the strategies for each
Aha, that I can help with! Check out the Math section in the General eBook: http://magoosh.com/gre/gre-ebook
In the topic “Factorization” on page 10, paragraph 2, the GCF is typed instead of LCM. The GCF of 4 and 6 is 2 not 12, I think.
Hi, Dheeraj
Yes, that’s a typo, thanks for catching it! It’s been fixed

Margarette
your efforts are laudatory. Deserving a paeon for sure.
Thanks, Abhay!
Chris would definitely approve of you actively using those GRE words! 
paean (just keeping you on your toes)
I see 81 Practice questions left to be attempted on my dashboard though i completed all the questions one week back. Are they new?
. If it is new content, then it is awesome.. 
Am absolutely loving the content.
Hi, Dinesh
Yep, we just added a new batch of Sentence Equivalence questions!
Best,
Margarette
