OK, after much agonizing I decided to retake the GMAT (original 730 with Q47, V44). That said ,I plan on attacking my weaknesses.
Leading the pack is... : Combinations, Permutations and Probability.

I bought and studied Manhattan Review's "Word Problems" book and liked the way it approaches these topics. However to make these problems "automatic" there is need for more questions. Way more than the 15+15=30 on the book and a handful in the Q-Review and OG11.

Does anyone have an online resource or a book to recommend on Comb+Perm+Prob ? I believe the key is to solve more questions, and I just exhausted the ones I have (including Kaplan books).

Any input will be greatly appreciated...

Project GMAT by Veritas is focused on stats, perms & combs and probability. I highly recommend it.

@Maratikus : As advised by an adcom member from one of the schools I will apply : To increase the chances for tuition fellowship.
If I can get a 30-40 point bump, it might mean $35,000-$75,000 in savings... Why not?

@eschn3am : (took a while to write your name!) Thank you ;I will definitely buy that one!

How many prob/perm/comb questions did you see on the GMAT? What school if you don't mind sharing?
