👋 Hello, my friends at GRE Prep Club!

As you know, the GRE is a timed exam, meaning that when you’re attacking problems, every second counts! A great way to save time on GRE Quant is to memorize as many formulas, concepts, and procedures as possible. I can’t stress enough how important memorization is as one of your main problem-solving strategies.

For example, if you see an average rate question, you need to quickly utilize the formula average rate = (total distance)/(total time). Or, if you see a question involving the difference of squares, you need to be able to quickly use the formula (x + y)(x – y) = x^2 – y^2. These are just a couple of examples, but I think you get the point!

A great way to memorize all of these formulas is to create a set of flashcards. Essentially, whenever you come across a formula you think you should know, put it on a flashcard! That way, by test day, you won’t need to waste time trying to recall a needed formula.
