Comment on Wind Chill - Question II
Hi Brent, If we decipher the
Great question coolvinoo!
Great question coolvinoo!
This question is asking us to determine which city will experience the greatest CHANGE in PAT.
So, while you are correct to say that city A will have the coldest PAT, this is not what the question is asking us.
Does that help?
Cheers,
Brent
Yes,it did..! Thanks Brent.
Dear Brent,
I would like to ask your opinion concerning the best strategy to prepare for test day.
Last month, after having scored 710 and 700 in two mock tests, I scored a miserable 600 at the official test (completely screwed the quantitative, my lowest score ever).
The following weeks, I have completely revised the quantitative part and wrote two mock tests at home (730/680), is it time to book the official test?
Would like to "be sure" to score right this time (I need my score to hang around 700).
Thanks for the advice!
It certainly seems like you
It certainly seems like you're CLOSE to taking the test again.
If you feel that you've identified and overcome whatever it was that hurt your score last time, then you're likely ready for a retest.
Cheers,
Brent
Hi Brent, I have watched all
When you say you have only 1
When you say you have only 1 official GMAT exam left, does that mean you've taken 5 of the 6 official tests (both free and paid), or have you taken 1 of the 2 free practice tests?
If you haven't purchased one of the for-pay test packages, you might want to do that.
I should also note that the test-makers sell batches of 3 OLD paper tests for $29.99 per 3-pack (more here: https://www.mba.com/exam-prep/gmat-paper-tests-set-1). These tests don't have an IR section, but they're pretty reliable predictors of your score on test day.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Brent
Also If IR doesn't count in
It's my understanding that
It's my understanding that most schools don't give much weight to one's IR score. That said, you might want to ask the admissions personnel at your target schools about the level of importance they assign to IR scores.
