I have a question.

I have completed all 156 questions for practice, but i was puzzled in the last 30 questions. Do they get 'progressively' harder in the book? where the last questions are 'more' challenging than the earlier and midsection?


I was averaging 8.5/10 on every 10 questions, the last 30 i was average 5/10 correct. I'm not sure if I am actually regressing or the difficulty is harder.

thanks for you help.

Yes, the questions in the OG do indeed progress from easy to hard in terms of level of difficulty for each section, so don't worry, you did not "regress" when you had trouble on the later problems.

Good luck!

Ahh Thanks Jim

With 6 more days to go for the big show, last thing i need is regression!

Now if i increase my SC correct average in the next 5 days, that would put me in a very good spot!

Haa. that was what i planned to do in order to rush for a deadline for 2009 intake at a university. Was quite confident till i came across this forum and saw the questions and then realized i have a lot to prepare if i gonna score in the high percentile!

guess gonna burn USD20 bucks to reschedule my GMAT to year-end and miss the 2009 intake!
