GMAT Rewrite

What is your test date?

The answer is D


I'm still sick today arghhhhhhhh how the hell am I sick in the SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm writing the 21st of July, in 2 weeks

Did 21 SC today from SC1000

17 right, 4 wrong. Completed in 13 minutes. The errors were just stupid mistakes-- one of my clients showed me a list of idioms a class gave her, and I saw between X *OR* Y on there, and I started to second guess myself and picked that. Of course between X OR Y is always wrong (should be between X and Y).

I didn't do too much else today, bought some jeans, a jawbone 2, some lightscribe dvds to burn questions onto for clients.... worked the phone for 4 hours today, 7 clients ahhh. I should double as a shrink.

Tomorrow I have 2 appointments, maybe 3-- then if my brain is still working I plan to do 3 hours in the evening.

Oh actually I'm going to review those Quants I got wrong yesterday. There were 2 good ones that I can learn from.

Have been trying to PM you but i think you have blocked PM.

I don't know what's wrong with my PM's? I just tried having it automatically delete messages if my box is full, although it does not appear to be full............ hrm strange....... I just sent you a message. Let me know if you got it or not.

This is the message I get from gmat club..

Why dont u pm ur email id..It would be easier to communicate

Some users couldn’t be added as they have disabled private message receipt.

There, I found the setting. You're right, they were disabled-- I never disabled them though. Must have been a software upgrade. Resend the messages that didn't arrive, thanks : )

Ok, FINALLY feeling better. I had some ridiculous viral infection and then my sinuses were clogged, and as anyone who has ever had a sinus infection knows, you can't study too well : )

I might study a bit today. The date is definitely creeping up-- 9 days! Yikes.

SC 110-136, 17 minutes.

89% correct
38s per question

Going to review mistakes now.

You're a tutor? How much are you charging? You meeting up at his/your house or at school? You doing this by yourself or through some kind of organization? Would be a good way for me to make some money.

As for the question itself.

I is obviously false.
II is oviously true.
And we need to have a closer look at III

R = Rose
S = Sam
T = Tina

Today Rose is twice as old as Sam and Sam is 3 years
younger than Tina. If Rose, Sam, and Tian are all alive 4 years from
Today, which of the following must be true on that day?

Formulas:
R = 2S
S = T-3

Then to see whether it has to be true, you can just plug in the lowest number you can think of that work.
R:2
S:1
T:4

4 years later:
R:6
S:5
T:8

Hence, Tina CAN be older then Rose.

I - Rose is twice as old as Sam
II - Sam is 3 years younger than Tina
III - Rose is older than Tina

A) I only
B) II only
C) III only
D) I and II
E) II and III

Glad to have been of help.

For the record... I'm taking the GMAT on tuesday. Been studying 2-3 hours a day for a month. Did 4 prep. tests so far:
49Q, 46V, 770
49Q, 50V, 770
50Q, 44V, 770
49Q, 44V, 760

Would be really really happy with a 770.

EDIT: I'm an idiot. After proving that 3 was not necessarily true, I chose it in my answer. Whoops...

III need not be true. Answer is II only.


Does anyone have some hard Official questions Quant questions, ie tricky permutation/probability, geometry triples, etc?

Best of luck on your exam. One thing I would recommend would be focusing on the hard Quant questions you got right-- you're at 49/50, which means you're missing a lot of the harder questions. And of course I hope you're using GMATPrep, not Kraplan.

As for my business, I'm independent. I'd stay away from the prep companies. In fact, a lot of my clients come to me after having taken a prep course-- the prep companies care more about $$ than they do about results, which is why they rarely ever show how their students do.

After proving that 3 wasn't necessarily true, I chose it in my answer... Went too fast.

Did get a 770 on my GMAT for your information.

How do you get clients? Word of mouth?

Are you not promoting yourself and using this forum to advertise ?

I have 9 clients that I tutor in person, and have a waiting list as well, so I'm quite busy : )

With a 770 you can definitely tutor.

I'm going to do a GMATPrep right now, I have 2 hours to kill.... to be continued.

so when you takin the gmat again?

Plz can you tell me a place from where i can review some advanced number system questions...............i am struggling with it. Like the question was how many 3 digit no.s greater than 800 will be divisible by 3 i tried solving it by this method (999-801)/3 = 66 but the answer is 72 i suppose...... can you please expain it

Edit: Need to stop going so fast. Forget this.
