Oh ok.. Thank you!!! I understand now why i found 60... I didn't think of the switching of A and E. So I multiplied by 6 instead of 6x2 So the solution would be this: 6*2 (possibilities for A and E)*5! (ways of placing 5 letters) /(2!*3!) we divide by 2! because there are two "C" which giv...

For the question one, I don't see how it's even possible to get 720 possibilites.
The correct answer was 120, but I found 60 and I didn't know where I was wrong.
For the number 2, I got 12 as well, but the anwser was 10... Maybe they're wrong ...

GMATPrep
Hi there, I am concern about the sample tests.... I don't have exemples anymore as I tried them all. So I was wondering where I can find more (some that are reliable) and if the GMATprep software is renewed and when ? How often does it change ? Where can I find other math/verbal samples that are clo...

Yea I was wondering: what was your strategy for those of you who took the GMAT again ?
I mean my problem is that I don't feel I have major weaknesses.... the problem I had today is the stress and the lack of speed that goes with it 
.
How do you re-prepare when you have to ?
it still sux though lol

disapointment
Ok I am coming back from the GMAT... I got 660 and I wanted over 700.... I am kind of upset because I hoped for the pressure to be over but here is another round coming. Having that said, it doesn't worry much anymore... It's all about time management. I really needed to weigh the difficulty level o...

Dude, you've already done a lot; One full month for the rest of it should be enough. Also it depends on the activity you have on the side (job...) As for me: I studied for about 3 months not regularly though except for the last month: I was working during the day, and after work during the evening, ...

Seriously I studied my *** off for this test and for the amount of work I've performed (along with my daily work - I work as an engineer for Nissan and this year was tough), it would be unfair if I don't get a decent score.... I'd be very disapointed. But I'll keep you guys posted and give you my im...

don't you think this evaluation is stupid ?
I can really feel how sometimes this kind of evaluation doesn't make sense. You can be really prepared and actually good at it and still have a bad score from time to time. You can practice over and over and get over 750 and on the day of the test you can a stupid 650.... Anyway the D day is for tom...

I did the GMATprep (the two of them) and I got 700 and 750.
As for the Manhattan GMAT, I feel it's more difficult than the GMATprep

I definitely felt the same way you did when I studied for my test. The hardest practice tests I took were from Kaplan. PR was a little easier. I think that my actual GMAT was very close in difficulty terms to GMATPrep. It was my impression that the last few questions in each section in OG resembled...
