...arithmetic, algebra, and geometry. The Verbal section measures your reading, grammar, and logical reasoning skills. The Analytical Writing Assessment essay tests your organization and writing skills. The Integrated Reasoning section tests much of the same content that you see on the Math and Verbal sections but does so using question formats that often display data in charts or tables. You have seen most of these topics previously, in high school or elsewhere. However, you probably haven’t used these skills in quite some time. This course will review these areas and introduce you to a few topics you may not have seen before. In addition to reviewing the material tested by the GMAT, you will learn testtaking strategies to help you best use your knowledge within the format of the test. You will learn the traps the test writers set for you and learn how to avoid them. You will learn how to use the multiple-choice format to your advantage. We’ll cover everything you need to know to meet the specific challenges posed by the GMAT. Use the multiple-choice format to your advantage. Structure of the Course The Princeton Review GMAT course consists of seven parts: pre-class assignments, online workshops, class time, homework, diagnostic tests, the online Student Portal, and online help sessions.
