Can someone please recommend the best materials to prepare forthe math and quant sections? I have not had Calculus in several years.
 
The main problem I think most people have with the math section is speed and time management. Try to get used to working rather simple problems very quickly. You should definitely review calculus concepts such as derivatives and integrals, and familiarize yourself with logs again in case you're a little rusty.

You definitely want to answer every question though, so if you come across a problem that looks like it will take more than a minute to answer, skip over it and come back once you've finished all of the simple problems. Because trust me there will be a few that only take about one second to answer, and you don't want to have to leave those unanswered because you're trying to work out a harder problem and run out of time. That's pretty much what killed my math score! Good luck! 👍
