Cool! Nice to see many are interested. I have covered about 10 chapters completely. I have a few problems unsolved in the Probability and Permutations n Combinations chapter. Where are u guys getting stuck up? Can we exchange yahoo messenger ids so that we could discuss better ? , if there are only a few of us that is?

Hi Guys,

I have also completed some chapters of Arun Sharma.
So, shall we start a new thread where we take this book chapter by chapter. 2-3 days for a chapter ???

Thanks & Regards,
Shekhar.

hey raj.....

even i wud love to discuss Arun Sharma's book...i get stuck too many times.....

but i suggest that we start discussng it in the Quantitative Answers forum...that'd be the best place to start......this is the prep resources forum......

Is there someone else in the same boat as mine? Is there a thread or can we create a thread where we can discuss only questions from this Book by Arun Sharma ? Do u think this idea is too far-fetched?

hi ,
i have written 5 Major MBA exams this year..I am awaiting the final results of IIT DELHI and IIT kharagpur -VGSOm...I would like to share some of the GYAAN i got while preparing for 18 months...

here are some of the books taht might prove helpful....

VOCAB:
1.norman lewis
2.IMS material wordlist- BRM
3.barron's wordlists.

For RC try reading as many novels as you can and make note of the tough words in them.In fact books by DAN brown has many words that come in BARRONS........try improving the reading speed to about 350 wpm......

QUANTS:
1.arun sharma
2.Trishna's book by TIME

DI:
1.arun sharma has a book for DI as well with lots of exercises.....

GK:
1.try reading the newspapaers. i know thats not easy ....
2.TIME AND IMS have their respective magazines with about 100 GK questions each ,onth
GK proves helpful only for exams like IIFT,SNAP and MAT .......but GK is a scoring area where one can boost speed too...

ok all the best
try doing the material of TIME and IMS... i might join u guys in the prep if i dont convert....
i have shared what i knew....

we can start a thread for shortcuts too. i have a list of 60-70 shortcuts .. i can post them if needed
