Thanks for the quick answer

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the quick response to my question.
I feel kind of lost because when I look at some of the questions and problems in the OG 11th edition, some of the kinds of problems that I see seem difficult to me.
I am starting the online Manhattan GMAT course on March 11. Their material seems to cover everything very thoroughly. Do I need to do a math review before I start that class?

I don't think a math review is necessary, unless you feel like you're VERY rusty with math. MGMAT should do a great job of teaching you from the ground up.

Best of luck.

scored 710

by sonti015 » Sun Mar 11, 2007 5:20 am
took PR online test just to see where I stand right now and scored 710.The test I presume was of a very easy std coz a guy like me scoring like this is really not right.Nevertheless my morale is skyhigh as of now and am all set to slog my backside off coz I really dont know whether I'll continue to have sometime for studies before my prof commitments take me elsewhere.

New thread make things catergorised. And this thread automatically will become dormant as April closes in.

Please Do the honours and start the new thread for April & May 2007.
I'll take care of rest of the things :)

All right captain,
forgot to add few more things.

I conveyed your message to Rajat-nda. He either already would have contacted you or will definitely now contact you. He helped a lot of people in beating GMAT. He's got into ISB this year :)

....
We have loads of people preparing for April & May so starting a thread aint a bad idea at all.
....
710 in practise test wow!!!
....
@ all:
I actually thought of Feb/March 2007 for G-day. But things were crazy here...
anyway will take it soon.
If we could appoint a good Monitor I'd go for 10 days break and will return on 20 th March :twisted:
