OG 11, question difficulty levels - 05-12-2006, 10:07 PM

Hello,
I would like some help regarding the difficulty levels in the OG 11, and the two additional Quantitative and Verbal books.

I am unclear as to whether the difficulty levels of the questions in a section keep increasing or are they random?
I've got problems wrong in the earlier parts as well as in the middle (haven't got passed Q.70 in each section yet)

Knowing the difficulty levels will help me evaluate my progress.

Looking forward to having this solved.

Thank you,
and Ave Caesar.

-HH

Re: OG 11, question difficulty levels - 07-12-2006, 10:06 PM

dear hatori H,

the items in OG11 are in order of increasing difficulty.
doesnt apply as individual items but rather bunch of items (say 20 questions)
Out of given OG11 questions ie
249 PS
155 DS
141 RC
124 CR
138 SC
........
In genreal, you will find last one fifth questions in each section of this book, most difficult.
and the book starts with easy problems.

WHat else you wanna know?

since the q is raised, i referred to OG11 whether they have mentioned it clearly or not. Unfortunately they havent discussed about the OG11 book in the book at all.
isnt it ironic? dont you think

anyway,
Neo lets make this thread for all official material.
GMAT Prep C A T,
POWER Prep C A T,
OG 11,
OG 10,
ADDTIONAL OGs ie V & Q.

all queries are welcome.

i don think there's any order...it's mostly random...tho u may find a block of tough/easy questions...

doesn matter....some questions may be easy for you...but diffi for others...stick to ur analysis grid....


Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.

you wont get a better suggestion than the one mucool has given 'STICK TO YOUR ANALYSIS GRID'

But i dont agree with him at first part...
dear mucool in OG 10 there was on order as such. but here we are concern with OG11

...
i know what ur counter argument will be
