I woke up early to write explanations, opened Instagram every hour to find the bonus questions, and stayed up late to write explanations again. I already miss this competition. :cry:

I feel very lucky to participate in this marvelous competition and join in X-Men Team.

Thank you 3000 (Very BIG) to bb, Bunuel, generis, yashikaaggarwal, mira93, and Abhi077 for your hard-working, posting new questions, giving kudos, and organizing this HOT. All of you are in my unforgettable memory now. :cool: :heart

I'm still cheering you to do this competition again. As bb said "You all are the true heroes.", It's absolutely true.

End of competition - Thanks and Congratulations

Congratulations to everyone who participated in Heros of Timers. The challenge is now complete, and the leader-board is now revealed.
The sheer number of participants, the excitement it has generated Across all the teams, and the excellent results were certainly overwhelming. I would like to thank all 1925 participants for their enthusiastic response to the competition and a special thanks to bb and Bunuel for hosting the challenge in the midst of a pandemic and making sure everything went smoothly. You guys are the real heroes ! Three Cheers for both of them! Hip Hip, Hurrah!
Also, I'd like to thank my team members yashikaagarwal mira93 generis You guys are awesome! this wouldn't have been possible without team work.

The list of thanks is very long, as the Competition is a result of an amazing and unique cooperative spirit, within the proud and enthusiastic community of GMATCLUB

I would first start of with congratulating the winning team, The avengers. Amazing parade of team spirit out there, and JonShukhrat for scoring the highest!
Guardians, don’t be disappointed, you’re technically a part of the avengers :D

Alright, I’m not really a fan of big posts, but bear with me a little bit .
I would like to address a few things and share my personal experience

A note for the ones who believed kudos weren’t fairly rewarded.

You all must be familiar with this line : The kudos are at the discretion of the moderators that may choose to give them or not to for any reason or no reason at all
I know a lot of you don’t like the sound of it. Trust me, I did not either when I was on the other side competing. But after being a moderator, changes everything.
|’ll share my personal experience – My mind set and protocols while awarding kudos.
1. Solving the question myself
2. Comparing my logic and reasoning to Official Explanation
3. Taking out brief notes from official explanation and assigning 5 core reasoning points to each of the answer choice
4. Expecting at least 3 out of those 5 core points/errors from each post including the reasoning for the correct answer choice
5. Checking if there anything misguiding
6. Lastly, stepping in the shoes of a beginner and going through the choices again to know whether it’s understandable.
All This, Times 60 posts per day per topic/question (on average) was challenging. Thus, those of you who challenged it, I need you to understand that in order to maintain consistency, we had to follow a similar protocol of reasoning till the end. I never looked on the left side of the posts to know who’s the one posting it unless it was proposed for a review. For me, Only explanations mattered. My judgments may have faltered at times, for that and for the PMs I haven’t responded to, I truly apologise. it was nothing personal. We were just doing our job and It was indeed tough one. Especially judging verbal which has a lot of grey Area. it just isn’t as straight forward as quant.

A note for cheaters

Where is the honour in this? Where is the sense of pride? These cheap tricks aren’t going to take you any further. Overreliance on people will weaken your mind-set and hamper your growth. There was so much desperation that we could see social media sources such as Facebook, WhatsApp, https://gmatclub.com/chat, and what not flooded with the competition questions, thus forcing us to create a stricter environment that’ll curb cheating and award the ones who truly deserve it.


A note for those who thought they wasted their time

How can one possibly lose time participating in a competition like this? It was a total win-win! Wasn’t GMAT prep your end goal? Did it not inculcate discipline in you? Did it not help you learn from your mistakes? There were only gains! So those of you who still feel they’ve wasted time. Let me know how exactly. I’m keen.

"Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that was given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein." – H. Jackson Brown Jr.

How do you guys approach GMAT? As a barricade or as a stepping stone?
B-schools do not want to eliminate people who do not reach a certain score on the GMAT.
B-schools want you to work hard and inculcate the abilities and habits needed to do well in their MBA programs. Doing this would ensure that you do well on the GMAT, during your MBA, and beyond.
You could continue to think of the GMAT as a hurdle that you need to somehow get done with. Or you could treat the test as an opportunity to develop the skills that you would anyway require during and after the MBA.
So, how do you treat the GMAT? As a barricade or a stepping stone? Would you like to continue treating it that way?

TAKEWAYS :

• The competition may sure have ended but your spirit should not. I’d request you all to keep going with the same pace, I’m sure typing out the explanation would have helped you learn a lot better. Keep it going. There are new questions posted every day.

• Discipline is the key. If this has helped you bring back the discipline in you, hold onto it, In the end game, it’s going to prove much valuable than you think

• Pop out of the so called GMAT world and start looking beyond
“In the GMAT world. “In the GMAT world, things work this way”, “In the GMAT world this is incorrect” etc. I have come across a lot of explanations mentioning “ Being is wrong in GMAT”, “ passive voice/construction is considered incorrect in GMAT” It’s time you get over it.
What and where is this GMAT world? Any of you visited this fantasy land? Why do B-schools really care so much about this world that they require applicants to take a test based in this different-from-real world?
Do things really work differently within the context of the GMAT? Or is that a way of teaching when something is not fundamentally clear?
Be responsible for your own learning. Don’t take anything for face value until it actually makes sense to you.

Strive for Excellence, and success will just be a by product.

A personal POV regarding the verbal questions used in this competition.

It is understood that these are created by third-parties and that their quality may vary. Nevertheless, studying the breadth of the (verbal) questions that were used, I concluded that the quality of the questions and their ("official") explanations were quite low. The explanations lacked deep technical details and were generally cursory. Some were better than others.

I mention these points not to discourage anyone. In fact, I encourage practice. However, practice should be done intelligently. My pov is that where the verbal section is concerned, students should mainly work with official GMAC questions. Doing anything else as a main course will lead to false hopes and errors in preparation.

Thanks to all those who organized and ran the competition on a daily basis. The participants were enthusiastic and contributed to the excitement. If people were able to learn and craft new strategies for their preparation, the competition would have served one of its purposes. Best of luck to all!

First of all a big shout out to bb, Bunuel, generis, yashikaaggarwal, mira93, Abhi077 . I know how difficult it is to be a moderator/organiser in a competition of this scale, in which so many elements are playing their part, while handling other day to day activities. We can now come up with a million ways to improve the tournament but the fact is that it was brilliantly organised and executed.


My heartiest congratulations to the overall winner JonShukhrat, my fellow teammates Superman249, Jks3000 and to all the other winners. (It is really difficult to mention everyone.. )It was a close competition with Marcost and Varunsawhney8. Kudos for putting up a good fight.


My sincere apologies in case I offended anyone in the heat of the competition. Honestly, it was never intentional. I remember I troubled bb a little in the early part of the tournament, regarding the timer issue but eventually realised my own mistake.


To all the Avengers-- You guys rock. This Victory is well deserved. We displayed incredible persistence and team spirit. The ball could have swung any way ,but we all stood our ground, reminding everyone what a team together can accomplish.


The final war is still pending. The endgame- or the GMAT. It is time to tighten our socks n March forward with our head held up high. I'm sure that each and everyone here will ace the GMAT with flying colors.


The tournament has equipped everyone with a new superpower- articulating one's thought by writing it down. When you write anything down, it forces your mind to get clarity. So, if you wanted to win- you had to write. No other choice. You either write, or perish-- No Kudos for the Felons!


Another way, the tournament has helped everyone is by instilling in us, as Abhi077 mentioned , a little discipline, which would help everyone in the preparation journey. The competition also infused in everyone a feeling of togetherness. Gmat preparation can often become a lonely battle, but knowing that you are not alone eases your mind. You know that your fellow comrades are right beside you to slay the GMAT dragon.


I have seen many people raise complaints such as the question notification issue or timezone issue- while it may be an issue for some, according to me such kind of complaints are not worth it. We all know the exact time and the rules. We can have either reasons or results. We cannot have both. It all boils down to how bad one wants it.


All my fellow competitors who did not win any prize, don't be disheartened. This is not the end of the road. Look beyond the stars, for there's a world there too. Regardless of the prize, the event was an eye opener for us all. All that matters is taking part n the end result- A big Home run in the game of GMAT. Get set. Let's do it.


All in all had a lot of fun. Lots of unforgettable moments, twists, and turns. Hopefully next year will be bigger and better. Best wishes to all. Cheers ??✨

Thanks raghav2512 and congratulations for the top podium. The contest would not have been so entertaining if close competitors had not put it so hard. Thanks a lot for contributing to this unforgettable experience. Just confirm me if you always knew you could lift the Mjölnir :lol: . (I really feel like Iron man in this scene :lol: )



Varunsawhney8 you also did great. You guys made me put my best effort in each question. I think the best reward is what everyone learned from one’s self and from others.
I wish you luck in your next steps through beating the GMAT. That is the final purpose of this hard but awesome trip.
