I've been studying to take the GMAT for the past two weeks. I'm taking the test tomorrow. I took today off to concentrate on the math parts that have been giving me trouble.

When all this is over I am going to send Tobor to cornhole whoever came up with these questions.

Is that one of those scammy things that business students go through so they can feel like they've actually attained useful knowledge before being whisked into the Alice-in-Wonderland fantasy realm of business management?

Er, I mean -- good luck!

This is like the SATs. You need it to even get into the MBA program.

We have a really sweet deal on the MBA if I make it in. Not only will I get my tution reimursed (based on my grades) but it is being offered on-site at work. The downside is that all of us (about 12 who have applied) have to take the same courses. But in terms of balancing work, home, and school it makes it very convenient. Plus, it's a very good school.

If I ever end up working for Fuzzyman, I'll have to give Chuck a call and ask if he could kindly gnaw through my jugular vein.

I took the GMAT without studying for it. With all my scores above the 90th percentile, I laugh at people who do things like study for two weeks and take time off to worry about such things as basic math and grammar.

I wish I had your ability in math. The English stuff is easy for me (90th percentile). I barely studied it. But the math... I don't know how anyone who doesn't use this stuff on a daily basis remembers any of it.

Really? When I did the math section it was basic fractions and stuff. x/10 = 3/5, etc.

This was an easy type of question:

A, B and C run around a circular track starting from the same point simultaneously and in the same direction at speeds of 4 kmph, 6 kmph and 8 kmph respectively. If the length of the track is 400 meters, when will A, B and C meet at the starting point for the first time after they started the race?

5 minutes

12 minutes

my abacus says 12

multiple choice math questions are easy because you can just plug in the answers to find out which one's right.

My uncle is a geologist and he once confided in me that all the chemistry and math that's required to become a geologist is pointless because no one uses it anyway. Usually any equations are given to grad students to figure out and they'll just use calculators and other computer programs anyway.

I had already avoided the math and chemistry requirements for the past ten years, now I really don't want to do it.

My mother once spent a long time berating me for getting a C in calculus and an A- in statistics. I found her old college transcript in a stack of folders and discovered she failed calculus and statistics. That was right before she changed her major to history. Who the hell fails statistics?

My dad can do complicated algebra, trigonometry, and geometry equations in his head. He's a mutant.

My wife still gives me a hard time because I earned my Computer Science degree without taking Calculus. But got an engineering degree from WPI, so she's a bit of a math snob.

Obviously, Scyess, the GMAT has changed since 1906.

Technically, they wouldn't "meet" as they're all running in the same direction. And if they're at a track "meet," the question is moot.

Also, the asshole who wrote this question made it unnecessarily complicated. Essentially all you need to know is the equation d=r(t). Instead, they try to freak out the test takers with meters and shit: "Meters!?! Holy God! How many kilometers in a mile?" AUUUUUUUUUUUUGH!"

And it's 24, not 12.
