Hi Sunny My Prep Test score are as below. In my opinion, the difference between the prep and the actual test scores is mainly because we accidentally come across few of the prep test questions or their adapted forms on the forums during our preparation. Otherwise, I found the actual test to be very ...

A Bread & Butter Score - 720

Hi Friends I took the test today and scored a modest 720 (Q50, V 37). Although I am not very happy with the score (specially a V37), I don't want to do anymore of the crossing business - ABCDEs. I am a 29 year old male from India, with around 6 years of experience post my engineering from CEPT Ahmed...

Although OA is C, IMO D is not at all irrelevant here. Solving this question requires an assumption to be made for any of the available options. Evaluating C, one has to assume that the very action of checking one's belonging instigates thieves and increases the incidence per-capita. On the contrary...

IMO 12/17 Let the total work be 30 units 1. A+B -> Time taken = 6/5 -> Rate of work = 30/6/5 = 25 units/hr 2. A+C -> Time taken = 2/3 -> Rate of work = 30/2/3 = 45 units/hr 3. B+C -> Time taken = 2 -> Rate of work = 30/2 = 15 units/hr Adding rates of all three we get 2(A+B+C)= 85 Therefore Rate f a+...

IMO 4

Given: Cause A -> Effect B

This could easily be weakened by showing that something else caused B

i.e Cause C (not A) -> Effect B

2:42!!!! is a brilliant effort your A & E are exactly as OA & OE !! Except, the possible values of x will be 608, 299, 294, 284, 137, 264, 127, 122 And as 19 is odd, 1st g() = even 2nd g()=even/odd 3rd g()=even/odd/even 4th g()=even/odd/even/even/odd 5th g()=even/odd/odd/even/odd/even/odd/ev...

Under 3 minutes ?!

The function g(x) is defined for integers x such that if x is even, g(x) = x/2 and if x is odd, g(x) = x + 5. Given that g(g(g(g(g(x))))) = 19, how many possible values for x would satisfy this equation?

A. 1
B. 5
C. 7
D. 8
E. 11
