Should be B
For all we know A could be 12:10 because the train STARTED late. Hope this one shows up on the real thing

Thanks Suyog.
Any easier way of getting to the answer or just plug away at the prime numbers? : p I guess the question is banking on the fact that some ppl may not realize 2 is an even prime#.
Cheers.

Thanks Tud!
I missed the 400km total distance from the question which made 2) sufficient it seems!
1) does seem awkward saying the initial 200km, so NS due to lack of knowledge about rest of the journey seems to make sense.

Adding another note... last GMATPrep I had no errors on Critical reasonings! RC is (surprisingly) my biggest weakness. I'm looking back and realize SO many careless mistakes, especially the global type questions - What is the main point of the passage? - Purpose of the second paragraph (to refute / ...

Just an update report... : ) If no one is reading, it will serve as my progress update to myself anyhow! Took another practice exam!

GMATPrep modifier
This one I was lost on... any lead would be good!
Saw the 3-2 split and chose the wrong pair entirely.... who can modify tribes? I thought thats' only for persons?
Furthermore, isn't amongst better for groups... why is it not B then?
Thanks in advance!

GMATPrep "as ___ do"?
I narrowed it down to the two, and thought that when you're comparing actions you would add do / does at the end?
eg*
I don't have as much money as he ___.
DOES completes the answer here.
Thanks in advance!

GMATPrep paralllelism
Not super sure why the answer is such.
Which are the clauses? The sentence lists the properties of the houses.
1) conical
2) cedar or pine
3) banked w/ dirt?
Doesn't 3 have to be closer to an adjective?
Thanks

GMATPrep
Is it just A) because it's the most succinct? I overthought this question and got it wrong... the original sentence on second view seemed pretty good. Idiom :: known to? I thought it was known for. Like someone is known for ___ (getting good marks, etc), or a restaurant is known for it's so-and-so d...
