Hi, I've been filling my apps and I noticed that there is going to be a lot of inevitable repetition in my app. I mention the most important of them in my essays, then in my resume and then in the activities/achievements sections of the application itself. Is that fine ? In case of limited achieveme...

One of the school asks for post MBA goal and I faced no problem there. Now, when it comes to long-term, I face issues, and exactly why I posted this question ...

The thought process behind asking this is that, what if the adcom thinks that why did the app...

So, overall it would be right to say that applying to such schools, which invite you via an e-mail, is safer that applying to those schools, which haven't done any such communication as mentioned above.

I am the one who posted this problem and I seem to have understood the reasoning behind it by now. I was primarily confused between D and E. However, it seems that B is also a distractor. So basically, B talks about worst performance of one set of students compared to another set of students. So tha...

Statement 2: kh = 132 Hence, [2ab]*[-2(a + b)] = 132 --> ab(a + b) = -33 If a and b are integers, then both ab and (a + b) will be integers. As 33 is odd, both (a + b) and ab must be odd. But that is not possible. Hence, a and b are not integers. You used the contradiction method here to prove insu...

If we had to find the chance that golfer also skies, what is the formula that we would have used ?
As in, what quantity was supposed to come in the denominator ?
The numerator would have number of golfers who ski.

Good way to get that Anurag. I generally don't plug numbers and try to prove things in a generic sort of way, which is more assuring, but takes much more time. Plugging numbers is fairly easy, just that even you have plugged a few of them, you aren't sure whether you have tried all possible scenario...
