Hey all,

One of the flash cards for DS says that half the time statements A and B are both insufficient. Is this the same as saying that half the time the answer is E, or that the answer could be C or E half the time?

Well If I am not mistaken, it was kaplan in which i read that out of all choices E is the least frequent as they try to make it appear as that information is not enough.
But i think all these facts and figures will be real close and you cannot make a judgement by them. We should go with intelligent guessing if we have to guess. Some books like Kaplan say a good deal about intelligent guessing. Do read them
Hope that helped

E

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
