What is the best preparation for the AWA? How much time should be spent prepping for this section?

I think that's the right amount of commitment. Toward the end of your prep, try to a couple of timed AWAs. Otherwise, don't sweat this section too much. _________________ Eric Founder of Beat The GMAT http://www.facebook.com/beatthegmat http://www.twitter.com/beatthegmat http://www.twitter.com/ericbahn
