Actually I just read bb's post on going from 650 to 700, and I realized that I had bought PR 1012, and not used it yet! Fresh organized questions to practice with today. Kinda excited, does that make me a loser?

I would say you have scope to improve on the Verbal area too, get it to 40+ and you are likely to get a score of 700 even with a Quant score of 42-44.

In addition to what I already have this should hopefully push me over the edge. the proverbial 700 edge that is

Started reading Probability for Dummies last night per bb's post and because I really think I have a knowledge gap about probability and combinatorics etc etc, we will see how it goes, not sure how much I will read, but it's a quick read either way

expressmart wrote: good luck Thanks!!! I'm going to need it, long weekend ahead of MGMAT Quant books, I can tell you I'll probably spend about 20 hours this weekend studying, long story short, I didn't get to study last night, but I did go out and buy an '09 Jetta with 22k on the clock, got it CPO, AND it's still under it's original factory 3 year or 36k warranty, and I got it FOR A STEAL!!!! EDIT::::Oh plus I got an addition 2 years 24k CPO bumper to bumper negotiating was fun I love this car, blue on beige cloth, I love German engineering,,,, needless to say I was unable to study last night, because I was at the dealer (yes I bought it at an actual dealer, but the experience was awesome, and negotiating for price has REALLY got me thinking sales, I saved myself 16% off asking price, I thought that was pretty fair considering I was getting an extended warranty bumper to bumper)
