OG Ed. 12 Level of difficulty

by vtrang82 » Fri Aug 06, 2010 9:02 am
Hello BTG community,

I am currently rallying through the OG Ed. 12th and find that the questions keep getting more difficult.
Is it a plausible inference to assume that the level of difficulty increases and that the last 5-10 questions of each section are representative of a 700+ level?

In regard to the additional OGs for Verbal and Quant books, do the same assumptions apply?

Thanks.

Regards,
Vince

i had the same question a few days ago.

I ended up finding an excel sheet that has the difficulties listed. For example with CR problems 1-41 are easy, 42-82 are medium, and 83-124 are hard. So I would assume the last 3rd is about 700 level

The back of the OG12 actually tells you that the questions are organized base on difficulty.
Questions organized in order of difficulty to save study time.
Yep.

Just curious what level would medium and easy consist of? 600 and 500?
