Hi Eric & David,
At the outset I want to mention that I am greatly indebted to BTG for everything it offers. It has become a part of my GMAT prep now.
But, I do want to point something which i observed over the past few months i have been spending here.
Source of the question: I feel this is very very important aspect of evryone who is preparing for this test. I used to solve questions without giving them a thought initially. But later on I realised some of the questions are from GMAT prep, MGMAT CATs etc. People sweetly ignore to mention the source. its not only about clearing one's doubt, but also to help others - that is the moto of this forum. Many people like me unknowingly attempt the questions and later on see them on various practice tests. As Ron says, even 2-3 repeated questions can give you a score inflated by about 30-4- points.
Obvioulsy its going to hurt at the end of the day.
I have become so wary of questions wihtout source mentioned these days, that I literally google it before to find its source and only then solve it.
Okay..long story short. I did see that you are about to introduce the the tagging option in the new version. I make a humble request to make it compulsory. Atleast if the question is from a CAT/other online forum/or random ones from the net.
I am sure may souls out there would echo with my thoughts.
Thanks for reading this.
BTG rocks.

Haha, thanks rohu27! We're only a few hours away from completing the re-launch. Apologies in advance, the site will go down for a period of time this evening.
