Thanks for the suggestions. No, I don't have that book. I'll probably try to skim through it at my local Barnes & Noble. I am planning to ask about the culture of the school, living arrangements, specific scholarship opportunities, average class size, etc.

Good questions to ask at an MBA fair?
I'm going to an MBA Fair on Saturday and I was wondering if anyone had any particularly insightful questions that would be good to ask the Business School representatives? This Fair is pretty important for me, since I won't have a chance to visit the B-Schools in-person before I apply. I appreciate ...

Help me choose a certification program!?
Before I get my MBA, I am trying to take advantage of all of the perks that my job offers. Presently, my employer pays for a free certification, regardless of whether it relates to my job.

GMAT Prep question
I can't figure this one out for the life of me. Thanks a lot!
(1/5)^m x (1/4)^18 = 1 / (2 x (10^35))
The answer is m=35, but I don't understand how to get there.

Thanks for your response. That's what I meant.
First red, then green 15/56

The probability of choosing a ball of one color, then a ball of another color would be 3/8 x 5/7 = 15/56 (around 25%) The probability o...
