hi Shalabh

Good tips. Can you tell us where did you get these questions from? Are these from OG?

Thanks

Bill Can you please clarify your reasoning behind setting up this equation? x + 1.1(10x) = 132,000 How did you get 1.1(10x) ? I reasoned as follows: - Apart from x, there are 10 other districts. Each of those districts can have 10% more population than x. So 10% x X 10 (10 percent of x times 10). I ...

Absolute Value Problem

For what value of x does |x-4| = 4-x ? I solved it as follows: Case1: +(x-4)= 4-x => x-4 = 4-x => x=4 Substituting 4 in |x-4| = 4 -x 0=0 True So x=4 is valid Case2: -(x-4) = 4-x -x = -x Lost here...Is this right? The right answer is, for all x<=4. But, how? I only got x=4. Some absolute value fundam...

Feedback on e-GMAT Sentence Correction ?

Anyone know how effective EGMAT's Sentence Correction Module is?

https://e-gmat.com/courses_sc.php

They claim to tailor their course work for non-native English speakers. Wondering how effective it is.

I've been trying very hard to improve my timing on CR questions. I completed all of OG questions with an accuracy of 68%(is that good?), with average time of 2.15, but that's an average of all the questions. If I average the 600+ questions, my average is ~3 minutes. How can I improve. Experts -- ple...

Thanks killer1387, I am in process of trying out different approaches. I am wondering how much time on average most test-takers are spending on CR questions. It certainly takes longer than Sentence Correction(my average for SC is 1.30), whereas my the fastest I have solved a CR question is about 1.1...

CR - Timing Issue

I am practicing Critical Reasoning topic, and while I am solving OG problems, I am noticing that my average response time for CR questions is > 2.30. The diagramming part itself takes about 1.10 min for me(I am following MGMAT's diagramming instructions). Is this normal? Should I skip diagramming an...

OG 13th edition - is this same as OG12 + IR?

I am scrambling to finish my GMAT before the IR hits the GMAT. That means, I will be registering for end of May test date. Should I consider taking a look at OG13, or any other "new" material if I am taking the test before June5th? Is there anything I should consider w.r.t the new changes ...

Hi DanaJ Thanks for clarifying. I don't have 60 days to go for my test date, and I would really like to use the 60-Day-Study-Guide. Is there a way to transform the links from aweber to mailchimp? I am sure there are lot of other people who are using the current 60-Day-Study guide, and now the links ...

Sounds like a re-direct issue from the web hosting company "clicks.aweber.com". Most of the links, on almost all of the 60-Day Study Program are broken.

Thanks for looking into it, let us know when the problem is resolved.

Thanks again.
