Hey

There is no such thing as partially correct. There is only one "best" answer and moderately best answers will not be given any credit :D .

Thanks guys. I have my game on March 31. I took the MGMAT and fell about 50 points. I didnt target too much. I was targetting a 650 and GMAT Prep 1 was 640. I am staying always on 35 with verbal but the Quants part seems to fluctuate from 35 to 45. Let me see what happens in a week. Goodluck for you...

I have been watching this thread for sometimes now. I am also having my GMAT by the end of the month. I have Manhattan GMAT CAT test and a GMAT PREP test remaining. I am planning to take one tomorrow. Which should I take GMAT PREP or MGMAT?

Thanks for your time!

OK. Here is how I would solve this problem.

If 106% is 530 what is 105%?

(530/106)*105= (5/1)*105= 525

The difference is 530-525 which is $5.

Hope this helps a bit!

Hi Amitava As for as I know, Manhattan has only 2 verbal guides. One for Sentence correction (The gold) and one which covers both Critical reasoning & Reading comprehension. If you buy any of their books irrespective of quants or verbal guides you will get access to 6 Online CATs. Depending on w...

I dont remember this format of the question in any GMAT material. I have seen the question in IIM- CAT India. The question certainly is triggering you to think critically. But the real trick in GMAT is how you decipher the question and reach this stage (as stated in question). Has anyone seen this t...

In alsmost all cases ETS will design questions which are clearly stated. The question will clearly tell you or give you indications such that Positive integers, negative integers, even number, odd numbers can be infered unambiguously .
