There's one in the purple Official Verbal Review Guide. That's the only "official" example of a boldface CR out there. They're generally 700+ level questions, so if you see any of those you are probably doing pretty well on your exam!

This has been discussed several times. There is NO significant relationship between the number of questions you get wrong and your final scaled score. The GMAT scoring algorithm apparently considers several factors, including the level of difficulty of the questions you get wrong etc. In addition th...

I think Darden is more of a General Management school because of its near exclusive reliance on the case method, which isn't quite the best way to teach finance.
The University of Virginia is of course among the most respected public universities in the country.

Break up the sentence into phrases to understand it better. We have an author, Beatrix Potter, who carefully coordinated the illustrations in her books with her narration. Now examine the choices: a.) "carefully coordinating" does not parallel the tense of "capitalized." agree? b...

Re: certain company
My guess is C) - 2005 After 1 year in 1987, her "rule of 70" total is - 33+1=34. For each year add 2 to the "rule of 70" total. In 2005, you get 70. A certain company retirement plan has a "rule of 70" provision that allows an employee to retire when the employee's age ...

I got standard issue earplugs at the test center - the foam kind you'd get at any drugstore. I'd been practicing taking tests using them, so I decided to use them on test day as well.

I see what you're saying jelt, but I think I'll have to disagree. Let's say I go to Chicago GSB but I really really want to work in Denver, or Portland, or say Dallas. Are my options coming out of Chicago going to be substantially better than (a possibly much cheaper) MBA degree from a lesser known ...

I posted a reply to your question in the Ask Stacy Blackman forum. Also, bear in mind the MIB is no less expensive than an MBA - so be careful in evaluating the future benefits of a degree from Fletcher versus an MBA from a top 20 school.

I did have to guess on the last 11 questions , but that would not justify such a significant drop in performance. I think that might be key here, I get the impression you know the content but just suffered from an unlucky case of nerves on test day and your timing suffered as a result. I wish you a...

--edited-- sorry, I didn't realize this question was directed at Stacy/Amy, but here's my opinion nonetheless Tufts does not have an accredited business school! The Fletcher School is probably among the top 3 institutions in the country as far as international policy and public affairs are concerne...
