GMAT Strategy

Is there a good way to print these??

very ussful , thanks

Hi,

I am unable to download the GMAT flash cards. It says the file is damaged.

Pls advice.

Hey guys,

Ive been going through Eric's flashcards and I noticed some stuff I am not too sure whether this is really correct.

1) One of the + PLURAL NOUN + that/who + SINGULAR VERB
"He is one of the persons who bakes spectacular cakes."

--> Isn't that concept incorrect? Shouldn't there be a plural verb? Look at this: https://www.urch.com/forums/faqs/3978-gm ... bakes.html


2) None should be singular, even when, to your ear, it seems as though it should be plural.
"None of the boys enjoys camping as he does."

--> How certain are we that this is correct? Imo this is just a quantifier followed by an "of-phrase". In Manhattan GMAT Prep Sentence Correction (#8) Guide on page 48 it says: (...) SANAM pronouns (Some, Any, None, All, More/Most) could be either plural or singular depending on what is contained in the "of-phrase".


3) Compare actions to like actions:
"Beeswax candles burn more cleanly than synthetic candles."

--> I know that this is not the gist of this flashcard, however shouldnt it say: "Beeswax candles burn more cleanly than synthetic candles do?


4) Target to
"The chocolate company targeted its advertising to single women."

--> Shouldn't it be "targeted at single women"? When do you say target at and when do you say target to?


thanks

Thanks for the update of the Flashcards, however, I have found something that has frustrated me for awhile and looks quite confusing on the cards...

Regarding Mixtures & Dilutions:

1) In the lower-left card on page 76, you give the formula of how to solve these.

2) on the card directly to the right, you give an example which looks to me to be a correct explanation of the formula.

However,

3) On the lower-right card on page 66, there is basically an identical problem, yet the formula seems (to me at least) be be mixed up and not relative to the first problem above.

After I did the problem on page 66 with the formula from page 76, it worked.


It just seems rather confusing to me.

The BeattheGMAT flashcards are available for free. If you want hardcopy you can simply print them on sheets of think paper and cut these.

These flash cards are great. I will use them to review at the end and add some of the ones I already made. Nice work!

Also, seriously consider making your own deck of flashcards for your own studies. You will be surprised by how much you commit to memory by simply writing down concepts on paper.

Best of luck!
