'For example, what is the probability that a number amongst the first 1000 positive integers is divisible by 8? Don’t start counting the multiples of 8! The figure of 1000 is a red herring. Use a little common sense. The numbers will be 8,16,24,32…So, 1 in every 8 numbers is a multiple of 8, even if you consider the first million integers. So Probability is 1/8 (Question from Power-Prep.)'

Hi Zorrillo, I hate to nit-pick, but that approach only works because 1000 is divisible by 8.If the number mentioned was 999 or 1001, the probability would NOT have been 1/8.In my experience, its always better to do probability problems ab initio.
Great post otherwise.Do keep up the good work.

Cheers

Talking

Well, I used free material on:
and I did many practice exams on: GraduateTestPrep.com // Online GRE Preparation
also, I used kaplan GRE General Study Book

These really helped me. GraduateTestPrep.com // Online GRE Preparation featured new upto date GRE questions in an online computer adaptive test format. By doing their tests, I felt more confident and I am very happy with my final scores!

Good luck everybody,

Lara
