Beginning in August 2011, the Quantitative Reasoning section of the GRE will include a number of new math question types. Petersons GRE /GMAT Math Review explains these new question types and provides a variety of ways to help you solve the GRE revised General Test math problems and improve your math skills in general.

After June 2012, the GMAT will also be going through some changes, but as of now there are no changes to the Quantitative section of the test. Therefore, our review of the GMAT question types is accurate for both the current and Next Generation GMAT exams.

Both GRE and GMAT Quantitative sections are designed to assess your basic mathematical skills and understanding of elementary mathematical concepts, as well as your ability to reason quantitatively using mathematical models and graphic data to represent real-world problems. By reviewing each section of Petersons GRE/GMAT Math Review , you will come that much closer to scoring high on your exam.

PART I provides an introduction to the question types in the GRE and the GMAT exams. Review these question types first before moving on to the next four chapters.

PART II contains four chapters, each dedicated to a different quantitative topic: arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data interpretation. The first part of each chapter contains essential math review of the relevant chapter topic with exercises and answer explanations. At the end of each chapter there are practice tests that include examples of math questions set up with directions like those you would encounter on the actual exams.

After studying these chapters, you can take the three math practice tests in PART III that cover quantitative questions from both the GRE and the GMAT. At the back of the practice tests, you will find detailed explanations to help you check your work and review your answers. These tests will help you strengthen your math skills and prepare for the real exams.

Please note that although Petersons does its best to conform to actual GRE and GMAT exam formats, there are limits to what can be demonstrated on paper. You may notice slight differences in question presentation if you are taking the computer-based exams. However, rest assured that all question types and content are accurate and up-to-date.
