So about Math....

[daoster]

So I took a diagonistic test today for the GMATs, and holy shit, did the math section screw me hard. The last real math class I took was about a year ago, and even then, it was mainly statistics...done on the Microsoft Excel. The math section of the GMATs was all trig (a subject I sucked in) and calc (which I haven't taken in a loooong time).

It's not really about scores, though, it's about percentiles (though I assume you know this). I have no idea how the GMAT usually scales, but on the GRE a 750/800 (I'm guessing the GMAT is also out of 800) is an inordinately high score (at least on the Verbal section, where 99th percentile starts at 730).

trig with no calculators?
WTF?
