Something did go wrong for you. What happened during the test? Anything unusual? How did it feel as you went through each section? I just responded to another student who scored 100 points lower than expected. See if this is useful to you. http://www.beatthegmat.com/epic-failure-510-q-32-v-28-t2693...

Gone thru d buks for theory and now need the strategy 4 TEST

You can use some numbers. 1)If A's income is r% more than B's ,then B's income is less than that of A by how much % ? Take A = 150, and r = 50% more than B = 100. Then B's income is less than that of A by (150 - 100)/150 = 33.33% 2)If P is current population of a town ,what would be it's population...
