"Review Your Work" - which blog post is referred to?

[ryanstephen22]

Hi, I have a relatively easy question.

In the syllabus, as part of the preparation for Week 3 (page 3 of 28) reference is made to an online post "Review Your Work".
When I tried to find this post online a large number of hits were returned, although none of them with this as the title.

Please could you advise me which article is being referred to here?

Thanks and kind regards,
Ryan Africa

Log into your MPREP student center. From the home page, click to launch your Online Syllabus. Navigate to Session 3, then navigate to homework for session 3. Under General homework, you'll find the link to this article.

Any time your syllabus references online materials, you will find the link to those materials in your Online Syllabus. In fact, it's actually a good idea to make the Online version your go-to syllabus and only use the downloadable PDF when you're working offline. (Or have the online version open, and use a print-out of the PDF to check things off.)

Good luck with your studies!

I ran into the same issue. My online syllabus does not list a link either. I found another article titled "How to Learn From Your Errors" which was the closest to "Review Your Work" as indicated in the syllabus. Is this due to a change in title or is this a separate article?

Sorry, I wrote the wrong class number in my previous post. The Review Your Work article is listed under session 2, not session 3!

How to Learn from your Errors is a different article.

If you have trouble locating anything, please contact our student services team at gmat@manhattanprep.com or 800.576.GMAT, as we have 4 different program syllabi across two editions each (e.g., 8 different possible syllabi) - the student services team will be able to confirm where things are for your specific program and edition.

I have the same issue when trying to find the "Review your Work" article- my online syllabus does not have a hyperlink to the article on any page. Please provide the direct link to the article.

Thanks!

Hello I have the same issue, i bought the self-study toolkit and in the syllabus page 3 (After session 2) says that I should read the review your work article, but I can't find it anywhere. Thanks!

Hi, guys!

I know it's a little confusing. If the syllabus you are referring to has a page number (and if you can access it when you are not online), then you are not looking at the online syllabus. That's a PDF of the syllabus assignments that you can download for use when you are offline.

The online syllabus is the entire system of web pages that you are taken to when you click on the button "launch your online syllabus." (We really need to call this something else so that it's not confused with the PDF.)

When you do that, you will see a string of boxes with numbers, 1 through 9, right at the top of the page. Each one contains the online syllabus for the relevant class session (1 = class 1, 2 = class 2, and so on).

Click on the number 2 to be taken to the online syllabus for class session 2. To get to this article, click the Homework button. There are 3 big tabs for homework: Quant, Verbal, and General (for everything that is neither quant nor verbal).

Under Session 2 / Homework / General, there are two tabs:
GMAT Roadmap
Student Center

The article you're asking about is under the Student Center tab, item #3. When you click it, you will immediately download a PDF of the article and, if your browser is equipped to handle PDFs, it'll open up right there. (Which is why I can't send you a direct link.)

[size=100]Hello, I am trying to find the same article, I do no have the online Syllabus because I only bought the books and I am doing t self preparation using a PDF syllabus that I download from the student center[/size]

Our full syllabus is available with the course or one of our self-study programs—we don't have a study syllabus that goes only with the books. Did you possibly buy one of the self-study programs? If you really did buy only the books, then I'm trying to figure out what you're looking at—it might be an old syllabus / something that is no longer updated and shouldn't be up there anymore. [EDITED TO ADD: Yes, book buyers are currently allowed to see / download an old syllabus for the 2017 edition of the Official Guide. You're allowed to see the full syllabus, but unless you buy a full study program, you don't necessarily have access to all of the resources mentioned in that full syllabus. We also don't update that syllabus over time. FYI.]

And, if that's the case, I can direct you to some free blog posts that cover similar material.

This article talks about how to analyze OG or GMAT-format problems.

Within that article, look for a link to another one that dives into specific questions to ask yourself when you're analyzing problems. Use the two together to learn how to review OG (or GMAT-format) problems.
