Top B School or not?

Hi Experts and BTG enthusiasts, I would like to understand is it good enough to get an MBA from a second-tier B school or a non-ranked B school? For example, I read from the Businessweek website that Babson College is a Second-Tier while UCSD-Rady is not ranked. What I would like to understand is wh...

The only parallel option is in C. Will be or could be.

Think the underline stops before the word "be".

So option c is best.

Is the use of "every" or "each" always singular in any case?

Right. 6 clerks cannot wrap 200 presents in one hour. So the answer to the question stem is always NO, that was what I was thinking. Thus answer is C. E would be the answer if 6 clerks may or may not wrap the presents in one hour. Are you thinking answer is E because 6 clerks cannot wrap 200 presents?

Hi Stuart,

For statement 2, I was thinking the opposite i.e 9 clerks guarantees that a maximum of 270 presents to be wrapped in one hour.

Should we take the maximum or the minimum?

But I still get the same answer C. 200 presents to be wrapped by 6 clerks in one hour does not suffice.

Thanks ajith. Much clearer now.

But I'm stucked at #1 now. I thought I got it but all wrong.

Any explanation on how Eli got a@b = a - b + 1/4 ? I'm missing something here. Trying to relate with st 1 of m@m = 1/2 but can't find any relation.

Appreciate any help!
