This one was not the only one, I've now seen several questions like these which make no sense as you rightly pointed out, but I believe that my job is to solve them to get the correct answer :D even if they dont make any sense :? , What say u Gabriel. By the way you were awake till 2:15 am, was it something to do with the 20-20 Cricket Wordcup
Hi Samir,

lets call it truce .. i agree with what u say .. if i get such a question on my GMAT i just cant wish it away and will have to answer it, by hook or crook..

I dont watch cricket .. i was up studying 8) ..
... totally lying.. was watching the match the whole time ... * logs off to watch todays match* ..

Regards :)

Just back to the question real quickly.

SInce, it is indeed squared, then answer would be 86 - as max height is reached at t=3 and thus plug in 5 for the answer.

With the holy grace of God, should we expect such questions on GMAT? I'll surely sue the test takers :wink:

Oh you absolutely should expect such questions on the GMAT, if you are aiming at a score of 700+ ( which i assume you are) ..

Btw Why would you want to sue the test takers :?:
