GMAT Ninja Quant Ep 9: Number Properties Part II: Pattern-Spotting

Do some number properties questions on the GMAT or Executive Assessment make you feel like you're trying to nail jello to the wall? Do you struggle to see the pattern and get these questions started?

In this video, Harry -- a GMAT Ninja tutor -- will help you understand what to look for in a number properties question. He'll help you understand some of the patterns buried in these questions and will show you why the "silly way" of doing these questions is sometimes the best way.

This video ranges from moderate to challenging. If you can spot the pattern, these questions won’t be very difficult. However, if you can’t spot the pattern, you’ll be bashing your face off the wall as you try to find a way through them.
