I have no doubt that you will beat 700 or 730 next time.!!! Don't give up.. Sandeep_142, i've the same situation with you especially with the Social RC. And i found out something, the RC in GMATprep is slightly easier than in SETS.

Hello IMHO (A) Among the parts of its business that Vernon does not plan to outsource are some that require standards of accuracy too high for most independent suppliers to provide at lower cost than Vernon can. IRR, we don't care (B) Vernon itself acts as an independent supplier of specialized hardware items to certain manufacturers that formerly made those items themselves. Smell good but IRR, this is either or nothing fallcy. © Relatively few manufacturers that start as independent suppliers have been able to expand their business and become direct competitors of the companies they once supplied. Look like weakening the argument (D) Vernon plans to select the independent suppliers it will use on the basis of submitted bids. Ya, but you have to go one more step to think that the bid will help --> then the costs might be saved.. But if there is no E, i will pick "D" (E) Attending to certain tasks that Vernon performs relatively inefficiently has taken up much of the time and effort of top managers whose time would have been better spent attending to Vernon's core business.

Thanks for advice Manish..

Until now, only injectable vaccines against influenza have been available. Parents are reluctant to subject children to the pain of injections, but adults, who are at risk of seirous complications of influenza, are commonly vaccinated. A new influenza vaccine, administered painlessly in a nasal spary, is effect for children. However, since children seldom develop serious complications from influenza, no significant public health benefit would result from widespread vaccination of children using the nasal spray. Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends? A. Any person who has received the injectable vaccine can safely receive the nasal spray vaccine as well. B. The new vaccine uses the same mechnaism to ward off influenza as injectable vaccines do. C. The injectable vaccine is affordable for all adults. D. Adults do not contract influenza primarily from children who have influenza. E. The nasal spray vaccine is most effective when administred to adults. ==> I guess D, which is right, but not sure why...i tried using the negation test..hmm Kim Let's me try on the 1st question. You have to ASSUME that influenza will not pass on from children without vaccination to Adults. Otherwise it is hard to conclue that "no significant public health" will benefit..

It's D Since the question want use to see the discrepacy between 2 tests. Thus D

I'm here. :D

I went wrong for both questions since i regared "In which" and "In that" as the normal relative pronoun and, technically, after the (,) you need conjunction rather than relative pronoun. Can someone light up the idea what does "In which" in Q1 state and so does "In that" in Q2 state? Thanks,

Hello Guys, I tried to browse for this problem, however it seems that this problem had never been asked. Am i the only one who has this problem? Or,, I've too much coffee today...:D My answer is C But the OA is B

Hello I think "C" make sense as well. A will be correct one if the question "Evaluate the effectiveness of the plan" But in this case, they want use to question the Author's conclusion.. thuse it should be "C" Tough one...
