Regretting my part-time UF MBA

I've only been to one class so far and I'm already rethinking my decision to pursue an MBA. First and foremost I'm a software engineer and very much do enjoy coding. After working for a bank, I got excited about a career in Investment Banking. Now that I'm full headfirst into the program, I pretty c...

Got into UF Part Time MBA

As some might have seen my post about my abysmal score (550), none the less I decided to still apply for the Spring program to UF. It was one of my 4 choices, the others being UNC, Emory, and Kelly Direct. Well with that score, I pretty much had crossed them all of the list, but since UF was still d...

Thanks for the encouraging words. The last problem in Math I had to guess because I ran out of time. Besides that, I got one probability problem which I completely guessed on, because I was wasting too much time. I'm thinking maybe I should pick up some other resources to help me on my journey. I'm ...

Verb usage when using "or"

Today I was writing something on another forum and my GMAT sentence correction skills kicked in. Can someone tell me, if my verb usage is correct in the sentence below.

"Anyone else with this issue or have a solution"

should it be "have" or "has"?

I did it using some back substitution. In order to minimize one, we need to maximize the others. If they were all the same population, then each would be 132000/11 = 12,000. I started with C (10900). 10900 means adding 1100 to the other 10 districts to keep the same population. 10% of 10900 = 1090. ...

The stem says that Y is a integer. Then B states that Y is a 3-digit number, which implies Y is a 3 digit integer. Then X would have to be an integer to make a integer.

Now I'm very confused. Cause now I'm getting D. Haha

Statement 1. X is prime Y is odd. Then X = 2 Y = 111
Statement 2. Y is odd and 3 digit integer. Y = 111, Then X = 2.

I got B . After factoring out 222 this is what I have: 1 * 222 2 * 111 3 * 74 6 * 37 The stem says that Y is an odd integer. This means that Y could be: 1,2,3,37,111. Statement 1: X is prime. If y is odd and X is prime then x could be 2 or 3. Insufficient Statement 2: Y is a 3-digit number. Only 111...

Night Reader, then what would your answer be?

To my knowledge 4/2 is a whole number on the GMAT.

I also agree that B is the correct answer.
