Fortes Fortuna Juvat ~ 730(96%ile) Q48,V42
I owe a lot of this to you people at BTG. I am not ecstatic, but I am content. Maybe I could have done better and touched a 760, maybe I could have screwed up I ended up with a 570. We will never know. The truth is here and now, and there's no point in getting lost in the could-have-beens. I will ad...

@ Diep, I couldn't agree more with the getting used to MGMAT prep. I guess we have just become familiar with their tricks, especially in DS. I wrote the GMAT prep 2 again with about 4 repeats in each section, and scored a 750(Q50, V42). I wanted a 780, given the repeats, but that was not to be. @gma...

GMAT in 2 days. Scared of AWA.
This is the structure I follow broadly- Para 1: Summary of the arguement and my understanding of it. Para 2: A standard para I use in every essay as para 2. Para 3: Point one, usually a flawed assumption, with an example. Para 4: Point 2, another flaw, with an example. Para 5: Another point comprisi...

Thankyou, myohmy. I was beginning to think that since the people on this forum didn't care to reply, my concern is probably trivial.
Working on fixing the loopholes in my Prep.
Diep, I am going to fix DS, that's what is pullling me down.

6 days to go. GMATPrep heartbreak. Suggestions?
Dear all I am writing the GMAT on the 3rd of August, which is merely 6 days away. I was fine until I wrote the GMATPrep 2 that I had been saving uptil now. I scored a 710 (Q47, V40). Though this score will probably make a lot of the people very happy, it is imperative that I get atleast a 730 (it is...

Greetings, all. Here's another problem requiring a painfully lengthy solution. Do share your approach and answer, and if possible the time taken by you.
If a and b are integers, and |a| > |b|, is a · |b| < a – b?
(1) a < 0
(2) ab >= 0
