Want to thank this site for providing some really good free material, especially the comprehensive flashcards. They really helped me push my score beyond 700 (though I wish I scored more on Quant).
I practiced using GMATPrep and MGMAT tests, gave 5 tests overall and prepared for roughly 3 months.
Thank you folks! Great job for maintaining this site!
Cheers!
Vikram

Does anyone know if probability questions show up a great deal on this exam? I just purchased the "Foundations of GMAT Math" book. Probability is not discussed!
I was hoping to get a more elementary overview of this.
Also, I do have one more query:
Is four months enough study time? I was hoping to take the exam by early September!
Thanks to all.

In my experience, advanced GMAT concepts like probability only appear at MOST a handful of times on the GMAT (like 0-3 questions on the real test). I wouldn't overemphasize studying this topic vs. more common questions on Algebra, Arithmetic, Geometry.
Good luck!

Hello Again,
After combing through many detailed summaries of GMAT experiences, I noticed something. Many folks want to simulate the test environment.
However, my question is this: What if your local library does not have a Wi Fi connection that will allow you to use it that long? Or, how do you do that in a library? Take your laptop and sit at the table?
What about your own office? I have an office upstairs. I believe I could leave the TV on or something...would that suffice?
