一篇来自美国的机经（2004 Jan 26 ，770 q50 v47） I took the test last week. Score is in the subject field.
My previous tests: Kaplan1: 710 Kaplan2: 740 PP1: 710 PP2: 790 Paper tests: 14: 730 25: 750 31: 730 37: 790 48: 770 42: 780 52: 800 55: 800
I'm happy, and also a little disappointed. I feel like I had a shot (a very small shot, but a shot nonetheless) at 800.
The test: Q: Two or three DS problems that were really tough, and one rate problem that took me (no exaggeration) ten minutes. The rate problem gave a comparison of the two rates of two machines not in a ratio, but as a constant with another constant. I won't reproduce the problem because I don't want my score to be invalidated, but it was a *****. No backsolving was obvious, so I pissed away a lot of time. The really hard DS problem may or may not be posted under a pseudonym in a few weeks. So pay attention! Hardly any geometry to speak of, one C/P/stats problem, nothing difficult to speak of in the more "advanced" parts of the test outside of number theory.
V: Four RCs, 60-90 lines per. What a doozy! SC had a coupla goochers, CR was easy for me (as it always has been). The best practice for RC is old questions! Do them!
I recognized no fewer than five problems from the OG and this and other web GMAT boards.
So, my advice: Do as many problems as possible!
There really is no substitute for experience-- especially when you see a problem that you know you've seen before! All you gotta do is remember the catch, and it's easy points.
Also, participate on this board. If everyone turns it up a notch, everyone will profit. It's not a zero-sum game.
Good luck, everyone.
