GRE Quantitative Strategy Sessions



Topic: Quantitative Comparison
Strategy Used: Memorize Answer Choices

One of the most important strategies for quantitative comparison questions is to simply memorize the answer choices. In QC questions, you'll see two mathematical expressions. They are boxed, one in Column A, the other in Column B. Your job is to compare them.

As you can tell, this could take quite a bit of time. To maximize your available test time, you should memorize the QC answer choices. They are always the same. Otherwise, you'll have to keep stopping and referring to the directions.

QC Answer Choices

(A) if Column A is greater
(B) if Column B is greater
(C) if the columns are equal
(D) if more information is needed to determine the relationship
