Yes, I have seen the MGMAT source. But as far as I can tell, it does not give you an question by question overview. Just some information about the topic (SC, CR, RC) in general. Or have I missed something?

Categorize CR question - OG 12th

Hi I am looking for a source that categorizes every CR question in the OG 12th into the types of CR question that can occur, (weaken, strengthen, assumption, resolve paradox etc).

I am interested in Standford, Haas Berkley and UCLA (in that order) as they are close to Silicon Valley and the venture capital cluster.

Also, the weather in California is not too bad either..:-)

OG 12th - difficulty level on verbal questions

Hi The MGMAT OG Companion 12th edition provides an overview of the difficulty level of each question (300-500, 500-600, 600-700, 700-800). Even though this is not 100% accurate, I like this feature as I can track and see progress as I practice. But, I would also like to have the same for the Verbal ...

Offical Guide 12th edition - online version

Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy the OG 12 th edition (or 11th) as a online version, not as a book? I prefer to read the questions on a computer screen.

Thanks,
