It doesn't work like that. The admissions committee will look at that CFA and ask themselves, is this guy planning on working in investment management? If your essays and career goals say that you won't, then the CFA won't benefit you. If you're just doing this to show them that you can handle a &qu...

Do the CFA only if you plan to pursue a career in investment management and (maybe) trading. It's completely worthless for investment banking or pretty much any other career besides investment management and certain areas of trading. So decide in advance if you want to spend 3 years on a test, if yo...

This is one of those questions that I would ask a lawyer rather than an internet forum. It honestly shouldn't cost you more than a couple hundred bucks, but at least you'll get a clear answer about any consequences. Or as a joke answer, ask the "Beat the LSAT" forum or whatever is this for...

Nope, you choose your schools in the beginning. You answer their various questionnaires (demographic information) at the end of the test.

when on breaks you must leave the room. However, in the beginning of the test, when you select schools to send the report to, you can spend as much time as you want. That's the time to use to make a table of questions and ABCDE.

Thanks for the explanations. I can see now why E is the better choice and why it captures the purpose of the passage.

Social learning in animals is said to occur when direct or indirect social interaction Line facilitates the acquisition (5) of a novel behavior.

Profit = revenue - cost
revenue = 1.30C, where C refers to Cost
cost = C
Profit = 1.30C - C --> 21.00 = 1.30C - C --> 21.00 = .30C --> C = 70
That means that revenue = 1.30C or 1.30(70) = 91. E.

My problem with this question was visualizing what the shape was. I thought it was a pyramid when I first saw it, and I wasn't even sure if it had 3 faces or 4. Once I saw from that explanation that the shape was actually 2-dimensional and that you could extend CE to the center of the square, it all...

I took a look at that question. That situation is a little bit different from this one. There it has 2 participle phrases: spawned and extending. So even though the tense is different, grammatically they're the same (i.e. both participles). But I see what you mean when you said that in this sentence...
