It seems that it comes from the real Gmat. Is it correct?

no i don't think it does.

i think walker is putting MGMAT questions up and asking us to compare how similar they are to real GMAT.

for this one i don't have an opinion. But if it were a real GMAT question, it would be a hard one for sure..

this is from MGMAT..

B is the best answer..

youve got me on this one ???

I will go with B.
"Media outlets, such as television programs and magazines, often report on the planned introduction of new devices while the sales of old devices are still strong."

If media outlets dont bring old and new devices together, there is no point in the company being afraid of sales drop of old gadgets.

Let us know answer.

Ilgaskas

OA is B

But even knowing OE, I do not still feel confident

OE:
The conclusion is that a company should wait until purchases of an old device have begun to decline before announcing a new device. The basis for this claim is that consumers stop buying the old device. We are asked to strengthen the argument.

(A) The typical drop in the price of new technology does not influence whether a company should wait until sales of an old technology begin to decline before introducing a new one.

(B) CORRECT. This choice states that media outlets such as television and magazines often report on the planned introduction of new devices while sales of old devices are still strong. The argument requires that consumers "hear about the new device"; stories in the media provide a means for consumers to do so.

(C) If many consumers are unable to determine the superiority of new technology, then they might be less swayed to wait for a new, recently announced device than otherwise. As a result, this claim may be seen to weaken the analyst's assertion.

(D) The number of technology purchases per year does not directly relate to this argument. The argument is about waiting until the consumer demand declines before announcing a new technology. However frequently consumers typically purchase technology, some will be ready to buy the old device when news of the upcoming device gets out -- and according to the argument, this news will cause some of those consumers to wait.

(E) The passage makes no mention of whether the technologies belong to the same company or different companies.

I also can't digest the fact that B is the correct answer even after reading OE

vk I highly recommend the LSAT superprep. But, before you purchase it, give gmatter a try. Download the additional CR bin which has plenty of LSAT questions. Get a feel for these questions.

vk get the gmatter software along with it. In gmatter, change the source of questions (in the CR tab) and point it to the CR bin 2 xml file.

Good luck.

Yes the in depth answers are great in LSAT superprep. Gmatter has explanations for some of its questions (i.e. the bins) but not for most of them

That is exactly right. You can simulate a full test - say do 15 SC , 15 CR and 11 RC in 75 mts. It even looks similar to the real gmat interface. Certainly better off practicing off the screen than on paper, cos the real gmat will be on the screen.

Good luck.
