Very minute thing but very important concept in SC...

Difference between 'Greater than' and 'more than' in a sentence.

'Greater than' is used when describing numbers alone.

Eg: Greater than one hundred.

'More than' is used when describing number of objects as well...

Eg: More than one hundred fish.


Never realized this until it came in one of the crack the gmat tests...

Hope these small things really help you.
IT IS TIME TO BEAT THE GMAT

LEARNING, APPLICATION AND TIMING IS THE FACT OF GMAT AND LIFE AS WELL... KEEP PLAYING!!!
