sorry, my computer doesn't have simp chinese so this is in english. I just took the GMAT this morning and here are some q's i'd like to share with the group. i didn't do too well, so hope this can help you all:

AWA:

the following is a letter written to XXX's city counsol from xxx's business manager:

1) Research indicates that those who exercise regularly are less likely to be hospitalized than those who don't; approximately 50% fewer people are hospitalized. Thus, if xxx provides a well equipped gym for its municipal employees, then it is likely that XXX can reduce its health insurance group coverage by 50% and therefore the town can achieve a balanced budget.

how well do you find this argument to be reasoned...

2) it is the government's duty to support the arts. However, for anything of value to be created, the government must not influence the outcome of what is produced (sorry, forgot the exact wording).  

do you agree/disagree...

3) point (x,7) is equidistant to (-1,0) and (2,0). what is x?

4) P, Q, R and S are on a number line. P = 1/3; S = 1/2.  The distance of PR is equivalent to the distance of QS and PQ is a fifth of QR. What is the coordinate for R?

5) k = (4^19)(15^7). how many digits does k have?
