I answer is B as the conclusion is if he eats pepper, he will fall ill. The other statements will be supported if pepper can be concluded as the ONLY reason why he falls ill. I don't think this is GMAT style though. In GMAT, we believe the cause ALWAYS produces the results. If the cause is absent, t...

I would like to go with C. It eliminated the possibility that the European goods might have been present in the camps but were destructed with time. Hence, it implies that
No European goods found = No European goods traded, hence the camp belonged to an era before 1630's.

Please post the OA.

IMO, D is correct: If the early coaches of current professional tennis players are players of earlier generations, it is likely that the current professional tennis players learned the techniques from their coaches, and thus these techniques are being practiced today not because they are "unive...

Well, I am a newbie here, but as far as I can understand, you won't be pooled together with "Indian IT" guys. You come from a different country, and the Adcom looks for diversity based on countries too. So, maybe there will be an American IT pool, and an Indian IT pool. Again, I haven't he...

Last few Manhattan tests easier than the first few?

Hi, I asked the same question at Manhattan Forum but didn't get any reply. I have observed that starting Tests 3 the Test difficulty level falls. Test 4 onwards it falls dramatically, and the Test score soar! E.g., Lets take the example of verbal questions: CAT 1 and 2 had 32 questions at 700-800 di...


I would go with C. If it is already a famous tourist site, most of the people are already visiting the site, even if they have to take the risk or the pain. So, the cable car will only ease their pain, or reduce their difficulty. It cannot substantially increase the number of tourists. Hence, C. The...

Which one gives tougher CR questions? Manhattan, OG or GMAT?

Personally, I find Manhattan CR very tough. In fact to comprehend the stimulus and the options is very tough too. I find OG easier. Now I know OG has a mixture of easy and tough problems, while Manhattan test gives problems only of one's own level. But still!! Is Manhattan CR a good representative o...

I think, the staff had told my friend that a new set of questions had been downloaded (rather than the pattern change). I am not sure, but will talk to him regarding this tomorrow.

Did Quant get harder with the new pattern in GMAT (Feb, 09)?

Hi Guys, Do you have any idea if the Quant section has gotten tougher than before.. My friend took GMAT in mid-March and he was told that the pattern was revised the previous month. He told me he felt that GMAT math was tougher than that of MGMAT, and had more questions that dealt with inequalitites...

Re: Her

[quote="gmat740"][quote]Have you ever heard: Born in December, Maria's face had a scar? No. Why? Because "Born" tells about Maria, not Maria's face. Now, doesn't "her" (a relative pronoun) sound the same as" Maria"'s? Hence, "her" can't open the seco...
