In Mad Hatters...

and I'm kinda pissed off. I've been studying fairly hard on this GMAT stuff and so far my scores on the quizzes do not seem to be improving. The data sufficiency stuff in particular is just killing me. These are the questions that a have question stem, then they give you two statements, and you are supposed to respond with the following choices:
A)Statement 1 alone is sufficient to answer the question.
B)Statement 2 alone is sufficient to answer the question.
C)Both statements taken together are sufficient to answer the question.
D)Either statement on its own is sufficient to answer the question.
E)Statement 1 and statement 2 taken together are not sufficient to answer the question.

The hardest part about these is that you could solve the given problem without dripping any sweat, but evaluating the data sufficiency in relation to the question stem is a bitch! I just got a 65% on this last quiz. The Stanford student in me wants me to lock myself in the library, but I really don't like this stuff, so even that is hard to do. I'm done for today, but I'll be getting back to this stuff tomorrow.


Ok, I'm off to Miles' place to take a shower and get ready for Mr. Rowton's going away party. Can't wait to see my old government and Model UN teacher. I owe him a lot, and I hope I get to tell him that before he leaves.
