GMAT Prep Answer Explanations

by megenedr » Sun Mar 29, 2009 10:13 am
Hi

The software only provides the answer - where can I find the explanation to the answers?

Thanks!

Unless someone has compiled a bank of explanations themselves (which seems unlikely since this person would've had to take the test many times to see all the questions, and there would really be no way to categorize them), there aren't explanations to these problems. The GMAC only provides the answers, not the explanations.

Some people have posted questions in the various forums here. You might want to do a search for any problems you're curious about, and post the question if you can't find it.

I have just Googled the question in quotes and I often find a good free detailed explanation.

good to know. I just went on their website; the Solutions Engine looks really interesting but I'm considering the OG Companion instead.

Let us know what you think of the OG Companion once you get it. I think the forum will appreciate another opinion (besides mine :-)
