There is a ton to learn to succeed on GRE Quant. Following a topical study plan is a great way to learn so much information. For example, is it practical for you to move from Geometry to Number Properties to Probability all in one study session? Of course not!

Mastering each GRE Quant topic takes time and care. So, initially focus on just one topic at a time, until you have it mastered. In other words, when learning any GRE Quant concept, first learn all you can about that topic, and then practice in just that topic until you have achieved mastery.

Consider a topic many GRE students initially struggle with: units digit patterns. I’m sure the first time you saw a units digit patterns question, you were unsure of how to handle it. However, imagine if you were to concentrate on learning only units digit patterns. Then after your learning, you practiced 20+ units digit patterns questions. After such dedicated learning and practice, you would be able to quickly answer any units digit patterns question that came your way.

This is just one example, but I think you get the point. Concentrating on one topic at a time allows you to master that topic.
