Urgent :What happens if I do not submit the last question ?

As I continue to be intrigued by the different types of silly mistakes I am committing, I realize that most of them happen on those that we think we are confident of but are actually over-confident.

I think , as Ron mentioned, above a 44 in Quant, its all about strategies ( number plugging/algebra/plugging answer choices in question, strategic guessing) , sticking to what IS GIVEN and not assuming viz knowing the scope of the variables, recognizing patterns, thinking out of the box, thinking in...

Hi Folks, In E , the correct ans choice, isn't the usage of indefinite article 'an' flawed? AN indicates more than one owner of the resturants while THE indicates ONLY ONE chef. IMO AN is OK Thanks but I am not quite sure of this. Could you please share some legitimate links to ascertain this fact.
