4pm test time. should i reschedule to 12pm a week later?
I'm taking the test in 8 days, at 4pm. Would rescheduling it for a week later to get a test time at 12pm be worth it? Do any people that have taken the exam have experience on what time is best? I've read it varies from individual to individual but some advice would help. I'm not a morning person (I...

I did read that story and thought it was inspiring. 610 aint a bad score either (depending on where u wanna go) so maybe you should do a light study everyday to keep what youve learned fresh, and then take the test again. But u got the motivation and desire & thats important, so i think youll ma...

This is a fact about the scores on the gmat GMAT: the standard deviation for the test is 30 points. So if you scored a 640 in the offical GMAT prep software a few days before the exam, and then scored a 610 on the exam, you shouldn't be surprised. This really doesn't sound like too big of a score di...

I just don't know what to make of my scores. Should scores on these test prep companies test's be higher than the actual GMAT score? Or could it be an actual improvement?

intersecting lines
can two lines intersect each other if they are directly on top of eachother? for example, if you have line segment A with points (1,3) and (2,2) [slope = -1]... can line B with slope -1 intersect line segment A ? In other words, can a line directly on top of a line segment intersect eachother, even ...

I scored higher on both kaplan and veritas but it could be because I got more practice with timing and applying thing...

I liked how it was a story of dedication.. that's real important im my eyes. Nevertheless 650 is great and the verbal improvement was clutch. Any advi...
