I took the GMAT this morning, as I do every year. The quant topics were no different from
the ones last year (lots of percents, number properties, solid geometry, combinatronics, absolute values, overlapping sets, median, ratios).

Nor was the verbal section much different- no science texts, lots of standard SC questions- comparisons abounded

My score was 790, 51q, 51v. I guess my 51q was almost a 50q... Maybe next year I'll get 800.

How many times have you taken it? and what was your score on your very first attempt?

I would think that all professional GMAT instructors should score in the 99th percentile (760+)
