The preparation has to be fast and intense. Since I work hard and have family, I incurred in short b...

Thank you very much for your detailed response Kelly! I think you are right. The GMAT is a good indicator, but the schools are even more concerned about the points you mentioned. Wish me luck! Thank you again.

What is mark-up for the GMAT?

This is an easy one, but sometimes it becomes tricky for me. Specially when the problem envolves only variables with no numbers.

Manhattan is very difficult. Don't worry about your score. I think powerprep will give you a better picture of your situation. However, keep on practicing with Manhattan. It has helped me a lot, specially in the verbal area.

GMATPREP Quantitative - 14 mistakes = 47

Is it possible to score 47 in the real gmat with 14 mistakes in the quantitative part?

The verbal was more reasonable 7 mistakes gave a score of 42.

Overall = 730
