Is GMAT quant prep useful if I decide to later switch to GRE? Not sure on which test to go with and wondering if starting with gmat quant ttp will be a waste of time if I can’t get a good gmat score and later switch to gre (I know it will require additional verbal prep)

A lot of overlap. Same material but the format is different. It would not be a waste of time by any means.

GMAT quant is harder than GRE so will definitely help you there. Was in a similar position and ended up going with GMAT. Would suggest locking down one test early on though, will save you time and $ down the road

Imo really easy but it varies person to person depending on your strengths and weaknesses

Definitely - I took both, GMAT first then GRE. There were a few things on GRE but not GMAT, but they were fairly simple. Main additional lift to study for GRE was the vocab.

I canhelp you prepare for both.

I maxed out at 720 on GMAT. Took GRE a week later with minimal studying and got 330

Yes. Just have to add geometry for gre

I started with gmat prep and switched to gre after I was mostly done with prep. I would reccomend you take official practice tests for both tests blind before you commit

I did about a month of gre after doing 6 months of gmat. Mainly on geometry

Also worth noting: it’s beyond my typical scope of knowledge since it’s a full marketing strategy vs just my current specialty. Thoughts?
