Ugghh..You won't believe how much that bothered me! Most ppl here do find Quant a cakewalk so the advice I got was don't work too hard on the quant, concentrate on Verbal!!

I guess I am the stereotype breaker! Can't wait to be back amongst the stereotypes though!



:lol: I guess you proved them wrong...

I do agree that math is somewhat easier than verbal, but it definitely requires preparation, at least some no matter how good you are or where you come from :wink:

Pfffttt...You're right. In hindsight, I think I wasted a lot of time doing the right kind of math.

I should've concentrated on "Arithmetic" problems and making my foundation in these stronger than wasting time on time n distance, work problems etc.

I'm actually attending prep courses for a very difficult entrance test we have here in India called the CAT, which is the test for the Indian Institutes of Management, hoping the gruelling maths in the course will improve my performance on the GMAT.
