Concepts Tested in Number Properties, Number Sytem & Number Theory

One can expect three to five questions from number properties, number system and number
theory in the GRE. The concepts are core concepts and you need to get an in depth understanding
of these concepts to ace these questions in the GRE quant section. For instance, it is not only
sufficient that you know how to find the LCM and HCF of numbers, but you also need to know
what is the idea behind finding LCM and in what cases do we find LCM. The following concepts
are tested in Number Theory in the GRE test.

 Operations on numbers. Results of operations on odd and even numbers.

 Prime numbers - how to determine whether a number is prime. Composite numbers. Co prime
numbers. Prime factorizing a number.
 Properties of squares of numbers, cubes of numbers.
 LCM and HCF of numbers. When to find the LCM or HCF. LCM and HCF of fractions.
 Factors, number of factors, sum of factors, product of factors, ways of expressing a number as a
product of its factors.
 Remainders, remainders of division of the product and sum of numbers by the same divisor.
 Factorials, number of trailing zeroes.
 Finding units digit of numbers. Finding tens digit of numbers

Concepts Tested in Permutation Combination

One can expect two to three questions from permutation combination and counting methods. It is
imperative that you understand the basics of permutation and combination well so that you will
be able to tackle questions from this topic. The following concepts are tested in permutation and
combination in the GRE test.

 Sampling with and without replacement

 Sampling where order matters and where order does not matter
 Difference between permutation and combination
 Number sequence examples in counting methods
 Re ordering letters of a word
 Tossing of coins, rolling dice and pack of cards
Concepts Tested in Probability

If you have understood the basics of permutation and combination well, solving questions from
probability becomes easy. In fact, many probability questions are a set of two permutation
probability questions with the denominator being the total number of outcomes for an event and
the numerator being the number of favorable outcomes. The following concepts are tested.

 Computing probabilities for events that are equally likely

 Computing probabilities for independent events that occur together
 Mutually exclusive events
 Conditional probabilities
 Geometric probabilities

Concepts Tested from Geometry in GRE

Properties of lines, rays, line sgement, parallel lines, angles, angle between intersecting lines,
polygons, sum of interior angles of polygons, number of diagonals in a polygon, convex and
concave polygons. properties of triangles, median, altitude, perpendicular bisector, angle
bisector, circles, chords, tangent, quadrilaterals, tangent secant theorem, inscribed circle and
circumscribing circles.

Concepts Tested in Mensuration

Area of triangles, circles, quadrilaterals (including parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, square,
trapezium, and kite) and regular hexagon, surface area and volume of cube, cylinder, cone,
sphere and hemisphere, length of the longest diagonal in a cube and cuboid (rectangular cube),
volume of water displaced in a vessel when another object is dropped into it, and volume of 3D
objects formed by rotation of 2D objects.
A relatively easy topic. Key to success in this topic is to remember all the formulae.

Intern Gmat club Review

Good course, but I felt Wizako's material was a bit lacking when it comes to certain
topics (like algebra, powers & roots, and integer properties) and a little off-the-mark
when it comes to others (like inequalities, sequences, and functions). Their word
problem material though is excellent. Also, the price of Wizako's quant plus verbal
course is equivalent to the premium online course offered by Magoosh
(which I felt is a better choice if you're looking for a well-balanced course
with better GMAT-like questions)
