pemdas, I am sorry but I would have to point this out that this is the second time you are questioning the intent of being a native speaker or as I mentioned in a subtle tone in my post - a scholar. Clearly a distinction is made between someone who is a native speaker and someone who isn't and this ...

No ! I got beaten instead !
Shocking defeat is what i'd term it ! I don't consider myself 800 league but I never thought I was 610 either (Q48 V27). Ridiculously shameful performance on the verbal section. The GMAT test centre had the worst keyboards and I felt quite uncomfortable. Neverthless managed to scribble some AWA rant...

GMAT and non-native
Do you think that GMAT test and evaluation of performances in non-english speaking countries would be different to what is administered in english speaking countries. So basically, does GMAT scores would be evaluated keeping in mind the test taker's background and obviously where it is being given -...

Thanks guys...guess i may just have to become comfortable with having to calculate it like you mention. Quant questions are harder (in OG) than i thought- i wonder how those who manage to score 50 tend to get through these.

fractions and non-similar denominator.
Okay -this is really sad that I am asking this question, I cannot remember a quicker way that i used back in school days to add fractions with different denominators. One question I am solving in the OG requires two fractions be added. That itself is not the answer or the purpose of the question, ra...
