I Highly REQUEST everybody to POST the SOURCE of the QUESTION. And if you are posting Questions from ETS paper based test Please POST SOMETHING LIKE " ETS question" ... may be some of us don't want to attempt Paper question now because they if they attempt the questions now they won't be left with any official material to gauge performance level.

Thanks
Saurabh Malpani


I absolutely agree with this point

Re: Posting guidelines for the verbal forum [#permalink]
I strongly encourage members to provide an explanation with their answers and it does not have to be anything lengthy. I understand that often times one could be at work and not have the time to do so but consistently posting one liner messages such as:
"It is A, B or E"
"What is the OA"
"Between A and B, I pick B"
will diminish everyone's learning experience. One can only imagine coming to a discussion forum and only seeing the above mentioned posts and wonder what is the real value-added to be obtained in participating in such a forum. Please participate in an active way and if you believe that an answer is right or wrong, try to explain why you think so. It is crucial to remember that there is no value in getting an answer right or wrong or even knowing what the answer is. Instead, you should know why the answer is right; it is the only way to a disciplined approach to obtain a good score. Moreover, it is also another way of contributing back to GMATclub and share with others what you have learned here.

I would like to remind everybody of the guideline of this forum that official answers (OA) should be posted within two days after the opening post is posted.

I also I suggest to first search available questions using keywords from your question. This will help to reduce the duplicate postings.

Re: Posting guidelines for the verbal forum [#permalink]
As a matter of fact, you will find many discussions on the same topic. However, I suggest people to let the discussion go and not post the link if the original post is more than 2 weeks old. For those who know the answer, just ignore it. This will allow new or less active member to participate.

Pls mention in the title if the question is from Gmat Prep. Because it will lead to repitition when you take the Gmat prep and you may get a distorted picture of your score level.

Re: Posting guidelines for the verbal forum [#permalink]
Please do not include the answer or your choices, such as "I debated over A and D" in the original question. Reasoning becomes biased if one sees answer in the original post.
