my 2 cents I did not like "How to get into a top MBA program" by Richard Montauk mainly because it is too big. My preferences are much slimmer and up-to-the point books, such as MBA Admission strategy by Avi Gordon - very practical, great profile-building techniques The MBA Field Guide: Ho...

I honestly don't understand all that hassle about the TOEFL: in comparison with the GMAT, the TOEFL is not a test but rather a formality: you arrive at the test center, enjoy your time, get 100+ and continue your application process. I got 112 after just 3 evening of preparation right after the GMAT...

The question makes no sense:
Hemingway's wives cannot refer to 'his novels', because Hemingway is not mention anywhere in the text! Instead, we are given a possesive noon.
I'd say if the choice D had contained 'were' instead of 'was', it would have been the correct answer.

Gents, I took the test yesterday with V38. Believe me or not, neither OG12 nor V2 are even close to the RC monsters you'll encounter at the real test. So far RC99 are the closest to the real test stuff, however, most of these passages are 'long' while I experienced 3 out of 4 RC passages being short...
