I agree, this question is hard... from the moment you look at it you are like "whoa!" whereas the GMAT questions I fear the most are the tricky ones that seem deceptively easy and lead you into trap answers... those are the worst coz you don't even know you are wrong...

I think #26 statement 1 should read:


n is not divisible by 2


37 should be:

In the sequence of positive numbers x1, x2, x3, what is the value of x1

Yes the tricky ones that trap me are usually DS questions where I fail to consider that one odd possibility that kills the problem. In case of PS I usually fall for those questions which ask you to find something based on certain conditions. You see that problem, you get excited and you solve it and chose the answer which turns out to be different than what the questions intends to ask.
Eg: P takes 8 hours and Q takes 16 hours to finish something if they work individually. Lets say P works for 2 hours and then both of them work for two more hours and Q takes over. How long did Q work?

Now, in this question, should we also include the time Q worked with P? Its so ambiguous because it does not ask how long did Q work alone. Such questions destroy my spirit when I get them wrong.
200 or 800. It don't matter no more.

I think you hve to include when they worked together. So After 2hs P working alone he completes 1/4 of the job. Then they work together for 2 hrs and they complete 6/16 of the job = there is 6/16 of the job left for Q alone which he needs 6 hrs to complete. So Q worked 2 + 6 = 8 hrs... what do you thnk?

a. Ratio of number of full time employees to part-time employees is less for division Y than for company Z
b. More than ½ of full-time employees of company Z are employees of div X, and more than ½ of part-time employees of company Z are employees of div Y
