I should note that, at MBA.com, the download links for the AWA topics changed a few months ago, and the updated links feature the word NEW in them. However, I've compared several pages of the "new" pdf with the old pdf and I can't see any differences.

That said, the link to the download page is here: https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/test-struct ... ction.aspx

The links are 2/3 down the page, under the heading "Current Analytical Writing Assessment Topics"

Cheers,
Brent

Please somebody tell if these topics are still relevant?
for those who are not able to access the link - search on the google for "awa list topics gmat" click on the first result and you are there. And yes, to my amazement, the list there is same what Eric has shared in few years back.
