GMAT Strategy

Does anyone out there have these Flash Cards for the Kindle??

I downloaded the PDF and converted into Kindle format, but All the formatting is screwed up because these flash cards are 4 per page. If anyone can post the PDF that has 1 card per page, i would gladly convert it into Kindle format for everyones convenience.

BTW MGMAT released their flash cards for the kindle, and are now selling them on Amazon for 99 cents.

Thanks again for the wonderful resource.

Great flashcards to practice during some free time. Thanks again
for contributing these for free!

I hired an amazing GMAT Verbal teacher in the last week to review the verbal section of the flashcards, and we've made some revisions. Look out for a new version in the coming days!

All the best,

Hi eric, It is a php file.How do i open it ?
Thanks for the flashcards.

Hi eric, this was because i didnt have adobe reader installed.
I wish to clarify the usage for due to on page 7

The best meaning for "due to" is "caused by."
"¢ "Due to" should not be used to mean "on account of".
INCORRECT: "The game was postponed due to rain."
CORRECT: "The game was postponed on account of rain."
CORRECT: "The game's postponement was due to rain."

whats the difference between " postponed due to rain" and "postponement was due to"
Also confused about the difference between due to and account of ?

During my GMAT preparation, I made close to 300 flashcards to help me stay fresh on the strategies and materials I had studied over the course of several months. The document linked below contains the digitized version of my flashcards--please use them as a study aid

Eric,

Awesome stuff you got on this site, especially that 60 study guide. I as well as everyone on here am very grateful to you and all those who provide information. I'm reviewing these great flashcards and spotted something that looks a bit off.

On page 59 Quadrant II (Prime Factorization: LCM) Step 3 specifies the word Either and if we look back on some of the verbal stuff we see the word Either as a singular adjective means one or the other, but not both. However in order to calculate the LCM we need BOTH or ALL or more specifically "The lowest common multiple is found by multiplying the highest exponential prime factor of each column." That can be more clearly seen with prime number powers as in the following problem:

LCM(12,15,90,72) = ?

 




The lcm will be the product of multiplying the highest power of each prime factor column together. So out of the 3 prime factor columns 2, 3 and 5, the highest powers of each are



this way its more to the point without confusion, so i think anyway, .  

keep up the good fight!

Hello,

I think your flashcard is nicely structured and full of valuable tips for test takers. Yet, I believe that one of the cards (in page 8) about "Correct Sentences" is not necessarily valid.

While it is true that 20% of the correct answer in Sentence Correction would be the original construction of the sentence (choice A), we cannot imply from this fact that the number of questions having choice A as the correct answer is approximately 3 out of 14-15 questions. It appears that, in that case, we simply take the 20% rule and apply to the number of SC questions in the GMAT to obtain the approximate number of questions with A as the answer. In fact, we don't know the probability of the questions with answer choice A as the correct answer. What we know is, for every SC question, there is a 20% chance that the correct answer would be A.

Consequently, the probability of having 3, or 4, or 5 questions with choice A as the correct answer out of 15 SC questions should differ from one another.

What is the best way to print these flash cards? Thank you!

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the great resource!

It seems that there is an error on the 'Percentage' card on page 66:

"To drop a percent, divide by 100%": (1/2)% divided by 100% is not 1/20000 as stated, but 1/200.
