Kudos for the Q51 and thanks for the great questions. I'd be great if someone could turn them into single questions with the GMAT Timer, makes everything so simple and easier to review for later.

Btw, would you be kind enough to share the study materials/approach you used for quant, or you're just a math-whiz?

Apologies for not posting the answers earlier - I just added them (see my first post).

I have always been good at math, however, I still studied quite a lot for the math section. GMAT-math is a league on its own. Used ManhattanGMAT and GMATClubs - both highly recommended.

5: A

4/10 - as mentioned, they are tricky. I haven't had somebody checking the answers for me, though I am quite convinced my answers are correct. I PM'ed Bunuel to do a sanity check.

Regarding question 4 - I believe ManhattanGMAT uses this style quite often to describe a certain number property (1 < y < x).
Regarding question 9 - What do you mean by unsolvable?

The product 720 can be formed by 6*5*4*3*2*1
. Was that not clear in the way I phrased the question? If so, please let me know how to improve it
