easy maths question
hi,
why does the cubic root of 0.000064 = 0.04
why does the square root of 0.04 = 0.2
I having difficultly in determining how many decimal place to move the answer after the cubic and sqaure roots are done, i.e. cubic root of 0.000064 = 0.04 and why not 0.004, etc.
thanks

Is OG enough to get 700+
Hi all, GMAT in 6 weeks. Is it sufficient to go through OG 11 and OG verbal and maths books, and OG 10 to get 700 plus. I have got the Kaplan and Princeton books, but do not want to waste time if going through OG10 and OG11 plus OG maths and verbal books in detail will be enough. Why bother with the...

Stacy, should I use my optional essay to....
Hello Stacy, Do you think that it would be wise to explain my social-economic background in the optional essay. I have not done this anywhere else in the essays (applying to top ten school). I was brought up in the most deprived area in my country (in western Europe) and attended one of the worst sc...

Letters of Recommendation....Help please
Hi Stacey,
I have to get 2 recommendations.
Will it hurt me if I do not use my current boss, whom I have worked with for 1 year. But instead use my two previous bosses, I worked for each of them for one year each. All three are at the same organisation.
Thanks

thanks for the reply. I got 590 the first time I took a GMATPrep exam. Most of my GMATPrep scores where around the 640 mark. Two days ago I did score 700 on GMATPrep but I think this was due to the fact that recognised a lot of the questions. On PR my range has been 580 to 680 but mostly around 620 ...
