Wow...you're cutting it very close. Why didn't you give yourself more time to study?
At this point I think the best thing for you to do would be review all your math and verbal so that you get the basics down cold. If you have time to practice more advanced stuff that's great, but worry about getting a solid foundation down first.

Look, most likely you see 1 question on probability, you may see no questions at all and in rare cases you see 2.
If you are taking the test in a few weeks, my suggestion would be to just review basic concepts of probability and skip the harder questions altogether. Much more worthwhile to spend time on content you are more confident about.

Give a practice test (gmatprep suggested) on how you stand on getting your target score. Yes, there aren't too many days for the test. Identify your weakness and focus on them. If you did not complete your OG11 materials, I'd suggest that you complete them all.

i agree.. best way to get started is to take the GMATPREP so you know where you stand... then work on your problem areas...

-thanx IMO, if you are applying for 2009 fall, you better postpone the exam for 2-3 months.. you really dont need to hurry up.
