Just got a PM. To my knowledge, there is no such thing as a "return on profitability per employee." So for me the initial sentence must be in the plural, i.e. the correct version should be "return [...] and profitability [...] are " You can also spot another error here, since th...

Notice how choice C corrects this error by converting this modifier to a verb-ing modifier. This modifier now extends the idea presented in the preceding clause. Questions to e-GMAT - When does ING form modify the subject of the touching clause and when does it not modify ? Any specific examples pl...

The first statement really doesn't communicate anything beyond what it says at face value, so it's certainly insufficient by itself.

As I said I wanted to concentrate on my weaknesses so did not get into the trouble of buying a lot of books or courses. SC - I was careful, however, not to be caught up in technical grammar and to focus more on usage than on fancy definitions. This helped to save time and energy. I focused more on ...

in terms of stress, one suggestion that i've given many students is to set a goal score that is NOT the round number 700 . round numbers tend to create extreme stress for people. for instance, consider the following thought experiment: * let's say that your goal is to make $100,000 per year, and th...
