.We Presume Your Questions:
It’s All In The Treatment Of The
Background Math Skills!
Background Skills Defined: For the
purposes of the GMAT and GRE quantitative sections background skills include:
arithmetic, algebra, geometry, counting methods, properties of numbers and the specific
vocabulary associated with them.
Think
of it this way:
“Math Literacy” – From the background math skills forward to the GMAT or GRE test question.
Our
“Math Literacy Course” is a math course designed to help you with GMAT and GRE
(and other tests ….) The environment is a math class!
Our
“Math Literacy Course” begins with the background skills in isolation and moves
forward to the GMAT/GRE question types. In our “Math Literacy Course” an
approximate breakdown would be:
80% background math skills and 20% focus on GMAT or GRE questions.
GMAT And GRE Courses – From the test question backwards to the background math skills
Our
GMAT and GRE courses are GMAT and GRE specific training programs where the
focus is on the specific format, content, answer choices, and strategies
designed to answer that specific question type. The environment is that of a
GMAT or GRE class.
Our
GMAT and GRE Courses – Mastering The GMAT, One Weekend GMAT Intensive, One
Weekend GRE Intensive, GMAT Verbal, GMAT Math
Although
these courses include a discussion of background skills where necessary, the
focus of these courses is the specific multiple choice format of the GMAT or
GRE. For a complete discussion of these courses and the approaches taught, we
encourage you to visit our GMAT Course Information page or our GRE Course
Information page.
Our
GMAT and GRE courses BEGIN with an introduction to multiple choice format of
the GMAT or GRE question types and teach various approaches to solving these
problems. Although background math
skills are explored, these courses are not for the specific purpose of
reviewing GMAT and GRE background skills.
In
our GMAT and GRE courses an approximate breakdown is:
80% GMAT or GRE questions and 20% background math skills.

2. What Is The Purpose Of The “Math Literacy Course?”
The
“Math Literacy Course” is a math course that has been designed specifically to
help you with the GMAT and GRE.
The
“Math Literacy Course” will END with an introduction to the format of the GMAT
and GRE math question formats.
The
“Math Literacy Course” is a “stand alone” background math skills course. It is
a skills, review and quantitative literacy course designed for people who want
to increase their comfort level with the background math skills (how do we
solve it?) and quantitative vocabulary (what does this concept mean?) that are
assumed by many GMAT and GRE test questions. These topics usually do not extend
beyond what is commonly taught in the early years of high school math.
In
the “Math Literacy Course” the math is introduced, reviewed and reinforced
outside the context of GMAT and GRE multiple choice questions. We also work
very hard to help you “redefine questions” so that you understand what you are
really being asked to do.
The
“Math Literacy Course” will END with an introduction to the format of the GMAT
and GRE math question formats.
3. How Can The “Math Literacy Course” Be Used?
The
“Math Literacy Course” may be used as either a “stand alone course” ($395) or
as PREP for those who take any or our GMAT courses ($200). The “Math Literacy Course” is always
scheduled before the start date of our main GMAT courses to allow for proper
integration.
Stand
Alone Course – If taken as a “stand alone” course the Math Literacy
course will increase the value to you of home study.
PREP
For Our Main GMAT or GRE Course – Our “Math Literacy Course” will
equip you to get even more out of our main GMAT or GRE courses. For information

The
$395 fee includes GST all taxes and course materials. Most of our students
combine The “Math Literacy Course” with one of our GMAT or GRE courses. The
“Math Literacy Course” is $200 for those students who combine it with a GMAT or
GRE course. For example:
-
Math
Literacy + Two Weekend Mastering The GMAT: $595 + $200 = $795
-
Math
Literacy + One Weekend GMAT: $395 + $200 = $595
-
Math
Literacy + One Weekend GRE: $395 + $200
= $595
