It does make a difference Mahfuz. I'll tell ya why. Other than the fact that it brings the best of questions as people tend to put those that they dint get right, it also gives u a chance to practice at all times. In office , where it wasnt possible for me to put straight 2 1/2 hours for any test, I used to peek in on TM after every 2-3 hrs and solve new questions frm PS DS SC and critical reasoning. Say 4/5 questions from each section. The interaction between the members is also interesting. To quote dreams

I guess I have reasons to be grateful to GMAT. Never knew any test preparation could interesting or addictive before I gave this one I just got lucky!

The discussions keep you on toes all the time and since you start enjoying the problems, TM makes sure that you arent losing any steam and keeps you motivated all the time. I preferred TM to other good forums ( such as SC ,etc) because it wasnt specific to only one section of exam. Gave me exposure to each and everything I could have imagined. I used to read posts from this thread " Just finished my GMAT" regularly whenever prep was getting heavy on me. It DOES ignite the fire in your belly to achieve the same great scores. Thanks Erin

I admit I dint use much of reading comprehension for the reasons mentioned in my previous form. Also initially I dint use GMAT Maths forum as I was thinking, and still think, that its level is somewhat higher than current GMAT questions but it always feel better to have easy ones coming up when you are already prepared for the hard questions. Though later became regular in Maths forum too just to prepare myself for any shockers in exam! saftery first.

Please tell the difficulty level of Quant compared with last 1/3rd OG questions.

I would say last 1/3rd OG questions were of average level in quant section. The questions aren't getting difficult, just a bit tricky. Pay attention to DS esp. Though a 49-50-51 is still very much manageable by an engineering in Quant.

Thanks for the kind words. I still have to shortlist my univs though I think I can set my eyes on top10. Any idea if 3 year of work exp by fall 2006 would suffice? Thanks god, though I'm an engineer , I aint frm great Indian IT pool. . Any suggestions?

Hi Piyu,

I knew you would do great... I am really happy for you

CONGRATULATIONS ON A VERY DESERVED SCORE! YOU ROCK!

[TwinnSplitter]

good job buddy, I had a good time working with you (as piyusht) in the SC section of testmagic...I owe at least a couple of my points in verbal to all the SC advice and knowledge you posted back when you were piyusht.

[snow white]

[arjmen]
