Hi Walker
Can you make the timer countdown rather than count up.
Countdown would simulate the actual exam ..
Just a suggestion

:done

Hi Walker,

Thanks for the timer. Gr8 work.

can you give a option to enter the total number of questions and make the timer work accordingly (in quant and verbal both) .

a small suggestion :-D

Thanks for suggestion!

I don't have Delphi on my computer to do that but I have iPhone SDK and am going to use your idea for iPhone Timer.

Walker - Thanks a ton for the timer. The app is awesome.

For someone who asked whether the timer works with Vista, the answer is it does.

First of all I'd like to thank you for this program that helps a lot of people in their preparation for GMAT. It's great!
Nevertheless my first use of this program wasn't lucky: I solved almost all verbal section, pushed pause and went away, when I was back my laptop was unable to awake from suspend mode, and I lost all results! :cry: If I used Excel (+timer) for this purpose it wouldn't happen cause Excel makes temporary files and saves data in a stated period of time (that I can change in options).
May be it's better to save each answer to a txt file i.e. update txt file each time user answers to a question?
P.S. and one more improvement that can be made in this program - adding a hot key ("P" or "blank") for pausing.

Yeah, it is a great suggestion! I hope I will find time to install Delphi on my computer and improve the Timer. At least now, I have a good reason to do so.

Ok. It would be useful.

Hi Walker

I am using the GMAT Timer not only for timing paper tests, but also for my daily practice. The only problem I face while practicing is, I have to reset the timer after 37 questions of Quant (or 41 questions of Verbal). If you are planning to enhance the timer anyways, could you please change it to accept number of questions and countdown timing as user input?

Thanks for suggestion. I've realized all this functionality in iPhone/iPod GMAT ToolKit Timer. I hope I will find time in Chicago to add features you request to Windows GMAT Timer.

Walker,

Just an advise. If you could add the total time taken as another counter.. I know we can calculate by deducting time left by the 75 mins.. But again its just a suggestion..

Anywayz, great job buddy :)

It is possible to look at average time per question that should be something around 1 min. By the way, in GMAT ToolKit (for iPhone/iPod) you be able to set up custom number of question and time.
