Do we have the OAs ? My answers: B,C ,A,C, D,B,B,E,E,D,B,D,E,D,B,E,A,D,D,D Twinsplitter: My answers were the same as yours except for the 6th question from the end. A fair, six-sided die is rolled. What is the probability of obtaining a 3 or an odd number? My answer to this was 1/6 + 1/2 = 2/3 and option (D). Is this right ?

My answer is D. "large portion of the 210-acre site of the Battle of Princeton" implies we are talking about a particular battlefield - only one out of eight battlefields to remain undeveloped.

My answer is D. The guiding principles of the tax plan released by the Treasury Department could have even greater significance than do the particulars of the plan.

My answer is E. D was a close second. OA ?

My answers: C C. was a well-established method of mineral extraction In D Leaching was a well-established method of extracting mineral that was as early as eighteenth century does not make sense. We are trying to say Leaching was a well established method as early as eighteenth century. Second Answer: D

I guess I should have held on to my "GMAT hat" and rejected D coz' it has a "in order to"

I would go with D, though "in order to" is not preferred. Unline most severance pckages s/b compared with company's severance package and not with workers ( A, B) or the Company ©. E sounds awkward. Please post the OA.

My answer is E. He has come to personify "the devastation and enslavement in the name of progress"

good post..metodiev

Sunitatrp The "so as to " here is not the same as the one you have quoted. This is used more to form sentences such as "so debilitating as to" (OG question) or rather "so > as to" HTH

I would go for A. Reasoning, that shoots dead chickens at airplanes has proved helpful in demonstrating - This sentence implies that the cannon has proved helpful. But actually the actually performed by the cannon in shooting the chickens at the plane is what proved to be helpful. None of the other options provide this reasoning. a cannon shooting dead chickens at airplanes has proved helpful to demonstrate that kind of damage can result when jets fly into a flock of large birds. What is the OA ?

One more E.

Is there a typo in the answers ? B) with its cargo of its cargo of 750000 gallons leaking into the ocean, and it polluted C) and its cargo of its cargo of 750000 gallons leaked into the ocean, polluting If C actually read, "and its cargo of 750000 gallons leaked into the ocean, polluting ", I would go for that option. Please confirm.

My answers: b: Because, the branch is in Manhattan and you are saying that it is bigger than any other branch in Manhattan a: Because the library is in Philadelphia and you are comparing that to all the libraries in Ne York. So you say, bigger than any library in NY as the Philly library belongs to a different set. What are the OAs ?

B, B, A for me.

GMATTestTaker See if the explanation below makes sense. the traditional rules. The traditional rules state that you use shall to show what happens in the future only when I or we is the subject: I shall (not will) call you tomorrow. We shall (not will) be sure to keep in touch. Will, on the other hand, is used with subjects in the second and third persons: The comet will (not shall) return in 87 years. You will (not shall) probably encounter some heavy seas when you round the point. However, you can use will with a subject in the first person and shall with a subject in the second or third person to express determination, promise, obligation, or permission, depending on the context. Thus I will leave tomorrow indicates that the speaker is determined to leave. You shall leave tomorrow has the ring of a command. The sentence You shall have your money expresses a promise (“I will see that you get your money”), whereas You will have your money makes a simple prediction. source: http://www.bartleby.com/64/C001/056.html HTH

My answers b; "as such" here is used to imply "this being the case". I do not think this a very common usage. a; 2 things are checked. 1 - "amount" usage and parallelism - compare consumption of coffee with consumption of tea b; went with passive construction. guess that was wrong approach b;

idiom construction "credit with"

The "than ever before" in is confusing as the intent of the sentence is to express the opinion that the technology has made it possible to study in greater detail than ever before the warming of the river. In "b", the meaning is convoluted.

My answer is A. "will" is used to describe the objective or the course of action as defined by someone else, while "shall" is used in a more authoratative way to say something like "the program shall conform to these standards" etc. Not sure if this clear. Let me know.

My answers b b e b

good catch...thanks
