Oldhaven, You clearly have misunderstood my last post. I do appreciate that we are here to help each other in the GMAT-MBA journey but posting these questions doesn't serve the purpose as the questions are not as clear and complete as you think they are(including this) and might dampen the morale of the fellow users. I hope you understand the purpose of the forum. Moreover, GMAT tests more subtle, not-so-complicated problems unlike the questions posted in this thread. I am sorry if you are offended by me asking you to refrain from posting. I meant in a very polite way.oldheaven wrote:I don't understand why I should refrain from posting my questions.why do you restrict yourself to authoritative questions.you are preparing for MBA, don't forget it.you should be able to manage.my questions are from a GMAT-like source compiled by a teacher in Iran.I mentioned it in my previous posts.so don't be so fussy about the source.answer the questions if you can,If there is a logical error in my question correct it and mention it,I will appreciate you.remember we are here to communicate and help each other to be good managers!
