121 pages of quant and verbal concepts presented in easy digestible chunks. Very helpful.
One suggestion, possibly for the future versions. For certain sections, in addition to the correct answer, it might be helpful to have a short explanation linking it to the concept(s) applicable in that example.

Is this available in GMAT tool kit too? I just bought iPhone 3 days back and got the GMAT tool kit two days back? I haven't navigated through all the links.

Fantastic resource. Really enjoyed going through it this morning before work. Only made it to page 26, but a few comments/questions.
On page 9, I don't understand the answer. It seems like it might be answering a slightly different question? If not, could someone explain to logic of the simplification to me? I came up with x = 49 (divisible by 7) for the second part, but not sure what the simplification is on the first part.
On page 13 (right side) - for the last fractions on the flash cards to match they should either be 87.5 or 83.5
On page 26, the number -8 and -9 are switched in the original question, so the answer is incorrect.
Thanks so much, looking forward to testing myself on the rest of the document!

kudos! definetely a nice addition as a GMAT resource..... one point to mention:
if this is supposed to be used as a flashcard then each flashcard should be on a different page! this way ppl will be able to print them and use them on their way to work, on the couch, at the cinema lol
doesnt make sense to have 4 flashcards per page...ideally please format it with questions on even pages and answers on odd pages...this way if you print them back and forth you get the question with the answer on the back of it

A pair of scisscors can solve your problem I guess Quite reasonable to have 4 cards on one page since it's far more convenient to have a pack of small papers with a single concept on each. I've checked flashcards from different resources (MGMAT for instance) and everywhere they are in the same format.

LOL true.....but that doesnt mean that we (gmatclub community) shouldnt try to improve the efficiency of the resources we produce...
It was just a suggestiom...if you think about it - if you have one slide per page then people can print them off in 4s, 16s etc ...ie in groups just like they are now....but you cannt do the opposite....

BB- Can you update menu with a link to this Flashcard post? I think it should be readily available on the menu without the need to search forums.

Thank you to the OP...currently printing these out and I'm going to go over them 2-3 times a day when I am about 4 weeks out from the exam. They will definitely help me.
