Signing up for consultant services

Hi, I scheduled a free consultation with your company but had some trouble. The first consultant wasn't available during my hours and the second one didn't inspire any confidence. She hadn't even read my resume! I'm still interested as I've heard you guys have the best service, but what should I do ...

Please evaluate. Analysis of an issue

From GMATPrep: The statement was something like "Traditional question answer interviews are used to interview job candidates for jobs, but the person should actually perform the tasks required for the job" Essay: Most companies today use the same hiring process - they scan resumes, select ...

Please evaluate. Analysis of argument

The argument was something like this (from GMATPrep): People in general do not care as much about regulating intake of red meat and fatty cheeses. Heart's delight started selling organic stuff in 1960s and now stocks fatty cheeses. Next door, vegetarian cafe is doing modestly well, but across the st...

Help with timing - gmat in 2 days

Unfortunately I am realizing too late that I need to address timing in Quant. I left the GMATPrep until the last week and now I am noticing that I am pressed for time in the last few questions. The good news is that I am able to finish, albeit a bit rushed, and I think salvaging just a minute or two...

This is my take on it and solely mine ;) The ivy's are like hot women. They are looking for the best looking and well rounded guys to pick em' up. Now a 750+ is like a guy with six packs and muscles. Two kinds of guys fall in this category. Guys who are genetically prone to have that kind of a body...

Re: The Myth of the 800 GMAT

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. This is *the most ridiculous* post I have ever read. And at the same time it makes me a little angry that you're actually trying to talk people into not doing "too well". Firstly, the GMAT is by no means a measure of technicaly or abstract academic intelligence. The quest...

Should I wait to take the GMAT?

Hello I am not applying to schools this year. And many more people are applying and taking the GMAT right now. Should I wait till next year? Will it be harder to get a good score if more people take the test? The test is curved so it makes sense that if only 1% of the people can get 760+, then it is...
