ooookay - so here are the corrected screenshots for all 6 CATs. hope it helps. still not sure how it does - id rather study than use the time spent on looking over someone else's scores, but to each their own. http://s2.postimage.org/23cjpzin8/Cat1_Q.png http://s2.postimage.org/23cn127ms/Cat1_V.png ...

not sure if you read the previous posts in this thread but i dont have much advice to give people on the verbal section... except for one thing: use the mgmat guides. the SC guide they make is phenomenal. as mentioned previously, ive always been a grammar nazi, so SCs were always my easiest type of ...

hullo! official scores in - 6.0 AWA! oh hell yeah! --- one thing ive learned through mgmat is that its not the answers that are important, but the process in which you get the answer. when there are OG problems i see again, there are three things i want to make sure of: 1. do i know why every wrong ...
