I have bought the Kaplan GMAT Premier 2012 edition. It gives the same error MC driver error. I find this highly unprofessional on Kaplan's part. Its already more than 2 years since Windows 7 is released and majority of the machines running windows 7 are 64 bit. They still have not updated their soft...

Thank you all for your replies. There is no direct way of knowing such equations. So basically, as parul said, we just have to consider each question individually and try to solve it. Also, I dont if its gonna help anyone. But I read somewhere that if u come across a weird prime number such as 29 in...

For instance, what if I manipulated the 8th question to read as follows: A citrus fruit grower ships only orange and grapefruit crates. He gets $0.15 for one orange crate and $0.20 for one grapefruit crate. How many orange crates did he ship? 1) he ships $4.40 worth of fruit. 2) he ships equal numbe...

My question regarding both the questions is In question 123, they didnt have two equtions for two variables. they had only one equation. But, I get the point that the constraints are such that it would yield only one unique solution. So my problem, How to determine when one equation is enough to sol...

if any point O(x,y) divides distance between two point A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2) in the ratio m1:m2 co ordinates of the point O is x=(m1x2+m2x1)/(m1+m2) and y=(m1y2+m2y1)/(m1+m2) here A(x1,y1)=P(0,-1) ..B(x2,y2)=Q(3,2) and m1:m2=2:1 so the coordinate of the point on segment PQ that is twice as far from...

I have understood the way they solved the question. But the question that I have is can we find out the same thing by using pythagorean theorem. Like the two points are (-5,6) and (-2,0). So we can find the distance between them by using pythagorean, i.e we get (36+9)^1/2. Also the total distance be...

Just amazing how rephrasing helps in such complicated questions. Honestly, I was bogged down when i first saw the question. But, after I saw such simple explanations, I feel like no question on the GMAT is too difficult. :)

I went mad trying to solve this question. And then realise the amount mentioned in the question is wrong. I guess according to the OA, the amount of loan should be 3,28,000 and not 32,28,000 as mentioned in the question stem.
