You know, I started studying for my GMAT with the Verbal section and I was feeling pretty good about it...but last night, I started in on the Math portion.  Ugh!  Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure this is why I changed majors in the first place.  I didn't have to take much Math for a Social Work degree.  It will be fine, I just have to remind my brain how

I'm running into that same problem with my GRE! Went to a workshop a couple of months ago where they crammed 4 years of high school math into 3 hours. Ugh! I remembered doing it, hell, i remembered doing it well. But somehow years of Liberal Arts and copious amounts of alcohol have buried that knowledge very deeply. Let me know if you want to study together - i have lots of great notes from the workshop!

So far I've actually had great luck with the Math is Fun website. Yeah, it's all buried in our brains somewhere...it's just a matter of getting it back to the forefront. I'm glad you commented, I didn't know you had added me :-)

i'm just glad you have your face on your pic. I've been trying to find people and don't have a clue who most people are on here! Thanks for the website tip...

I still have my college calculus book. Starts pretty basic. I might have some other study material (algebra, geometry) if you want me to look. You don't live more then 4 minutes away.

Stephen just went through all of this, so if you want a study session with either of us (or both!), we're at your beck and call!
