Are 3-4 hours of study per day for 3 months enough for GRE Prep? any suggestions from the acers?

I just discovered the following site on the net: GMATCAT.com The site is very badly written and full of mistakes (spelling/grammar). This site is trying to get you into buying their "guides". Yeah right! But most extraordinarily: they (the makers of this controversial site) took all the...

I hear so much about top quant scorers encountering Standard Deviation and/or stats questions once or twice in their first ten questions. My question is - what types of questions are you seeing? Are they asking you to compute the Standard Deviation? Are they asking for a distribution? ...

Hello, I finished My GMAT last week (710 Q49 V38). Is the official score you receive a couple times later sometimes very different from the unofficial score they give you at the end of the test?? It's important because if there is I think 690 is VERY different from 710 for the schools I...

Hi, I took the GMAT in Feb 2004, and got a 540 (VB 27, QUANT 36). I prepared using the OG and Kaplan 800, went through each book once. I didn't do any of the practice tests because all the questions came from the OG. But, I was getting 8 or 9 out of 10 questions right on the OG so I thought...

I am new here and I am sorry if this is a repeat post. When I look at the posts here, I see numbers like Q 47 & V 42. But there are only 37 Quant and 41 Verbal qns in GMAT. So how do we arrive at these scores ? I have been doing practice Paper Tests and I was not aware of how to convert the...

Hi, I just gave my first PowerPrep test yesterday. When I completed the test and reviewed my score, the review list only showed me 28 Quant questions (and not 37!) and around 32 Verbal questions. I did attempt all the questions and infact got a pretty good score - 760 (Q51, V41). My 28Q...

Ok, I have been getting about 8/10 questions right on the verbal front and more than 9/10 (on average) in quant right. the verbal has seemed to have gotten quite hard towards the end (SC in particular). Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me. Also, what is the approximate score that I...

Are they any good? I've heard they're harder than Kaplan, but good prep for the tough quant questions we'll see on the real test. Any feedback from users that have used them? Good, bad, otherwise? Thanks.

Ok, so the low down is that I finally mustered up the courage to register for the GMAT next week. I have been studying sporadically for the last 2 months (probably a total of 6 hrs a week) and have been feeling good about my scores which have ranged as from 570 (Kaplan) to 730 (PR) with most being...
