I believe this is a pronoun reference error. In the original sentence, it is not clear what "if" is referring to. It could either refer to "Restorers" or "the colors". I believe the answer is C, because colors can't be allowed to do anything, as they are inantimate. &qu...

Hi Ratdog, I purchased the on-demand course a few weeks ago, and I cannot tell you how much I am enjoying it.

If you get that score, I think you would have a great chance of getting into your target schools. The main issue you will run into is putting all of your achievements / experience into the right words.

I'm pretty excited right now. I just took a practice GMAT on the Veritas website, completely cold, and scored a 650. I definitely think a 700, if not higher, is within reach. I was scared to take a practice test, because I was afraid of getting around a 550 and having too much of a point difference ...

Other schools to consider are Boston University, UC Berkeley, and NYU. Check out this article for the top MBA programs for IT...
