Excellent score !!!! You know what, i had set myself a target of 750 when i started preparing for this exam. After 3 poor scores on GMATPrep (510, 610 & 570), i reduced that to 700. But now after reading your debrief, i am raising my target back to 750. Yes, it will take hell of work, but so wil...

@ Joanna: Hi Joanna, On one hand - I can understand that GMAC has to be very strict with integrity issues. As a result not only the culprits suffer, but also some innocent people suffer. Something similar to collateral damage. On the other hand - What i'm interested to know is whether GMAC is making...

Hey Dana, I read all the testimonials at btg's review page. Most of the testimonials are about how amazing Master Gmat's software is, but very few are about the quality (closeness to actual gmat questions) of the questions that this software throws at the user(s). It is a known fact that Manhattan P...

Thanks for your reply Abhishek, I see that you are a student of Master Gmat. Have you taken their diagnostic test? Does this test resemble closely to the GmatPrep test? I will surely try out their 7 day free trial. I've read in their testimonials that the course, especially the interactive software ...

Master GMAT Online Course reviews

Hi gmatters,

Does anyone know about the 'Master GMAT' online course? I got to know about it through an advertisement that appeared on btg's home page. How does this course compare to the others available online?

Thanks

Are you kidding me !! Indian marriages dont give any 'free' time. Everyone just sits on the head and orders what to do. Meanwhile, how did you figure out that i was having an Indian Marriage. Does my name makes it obvious :)
Where are you getting married?

@hja: Thanks a lot. I am thinking of staying in touch with the preparation though, so that i do not end up starting at ground zero again. How do you think it can be done? I am thinking of subscribing to BTG 'daily math and verbal question' so that i can atleast spend few minutes on gmat studies. @tx...

Hi Guys, What is the source of this question? Anyhow, i found the question very vaguely drafted. 1. It asks whether the Set Q contains 'every' positive multiple of 11. What if the set is {11, 22, 33, 45, 21, so on......}. In this case, we can assume q to be any integer. Considering this, we will alw...

I solved it by picking numbers First Wheel: Let x (dia) = 12 inches => Radius of first wheel = 6 inches Circumference of first wheel = 2 Pi r = 2 Pi 6 = 12 Pi inches or Pi feet Second Wheel: let y (dia) = 6 inches => Radius = 3 inches Circumference of second wheel = 2 Pi r = 2 Pi 3 = 6 Pi inches or ...

@iridebikes: Thanks a lot for a motivating reply. Taking your advice to time questions, i think i will start solving 37 OG12 (20 PS + 17 DS) quant problems daily before coming to office and limit those to 75 minutes. That way, i will be able to finish all the OG questions in about 10 days from today...

25 days to go !! Score way off target.....advice needed

Hello all experts and Gmatters... i am taking my GMAT on 26th Feb and am way off the targeted 720. I took the first Mock test from Gmat Prep in Dec and scored 510 (Q24, V32). I took another mock test from Gmat Prep few days ago and scored 600 (Q39, V34). I see that Quant is clearly my weakness. I pl...
