How many perm, combo, prob questions

by ddimes » Mon Nov 26, 2007 1:41 am
Assuming one is doing well on the test how many perm, combo, and prob questions should one expect to see. I have taken several of the Kaplan CATs and they start throwing a lot of them at you as soon as you get a few questions right.

I am trying to determine how much time I should spend studying these questions types. I don't want to spend too much time on them if I am only going to see 1 or 2.

Thanks

You shouldn't expect to see more than a handful of these types of questions on the GMAT, if any. Most people report 2-3 max.
