c, is wrong: "previous year's" dose not have possesiveness in the first part of sentence
d, is wrong , "it" has not clear reference
e, "costs" must go with "those" not "that"

Nicely done. Turned this into a sticky.

Thanks bb. This is really helpful for newbies like us who dont need to post the same question again and again !
thanks.

Wow..I am so glad that my thread is helping people take the initiative to make such topics!
Great going:)

Hi smtripathi
Do you mean to add the N of the questions in the subject?

Thank you for posting this! It is comforting knowing there are people out there who really want us "newbies" to succeed!

burnttwinky · **Posted:** Mon Nov 16, 2009 1:04 pm

Completely agree. It's nice to see how many people are taking their time to help.

mrbgam · **Posted:** Sat Nov 21, 2009 10:46 am

It's very useful. Thank Ayrish

To bb: I think Ayrish is doing right. Many people are doing 1000SC (also CR) but our forum is very big, it's really hard when we post the question or find the answer. If they're collected, they will be strong enough for us.

Could you stick it and prevent sb from writing unneeded words (such as it's perfect, thank you...), because we do not waste time to follow and add more it logically.

burnttwinky · **Posted:** Sun Dec 06, 2009 12:40 am

Has anyone taken the Manhattan GMAT quest for 750+ workshop here?

The questions are quite good but not sure if the answers provided in the link align to these questions. I will try to build a simple answer sheet (no explanation) as I go along if there isn't one handy.
