Let me know the ans
well montaques said he checked the ans in OG 11 and the ans is 'c'...but i m not sure whether this is from OG11......
Thnx..it was really helpful....
sumit, check out question no. 10 in OG11. you will find it there!!
sumitgoel23 SaysGuys need ur inputs
Q1) The sequence is this
Aspirin ----eliminate moderate fever----moderate fever----helps produce white blood cells.
There is no direct link between aspirin and white blood cells so conclusion cannot be made.B is the better of the two.A conclusion most often restates premise in a concise way.
This question is there in OG11.You can see the detailed explanation there
q2) This ,again is there in OG11. See the detailed explanation there.
Magazine thinks advertisers stay and there won't be any loss in reducing the numbers. But what if advertisers pay per magazine? the lesser the number the lesser the revenue from advertisement. So answer is D

1) I think A goes with the mood of the passage.Not sure though.The passage is critical of Entrepreneurs and tries imply that they don't know much about art and is sarcastic in its choice of sentences. Don't know whether its correct.
2) I think answer is A. I don't think its strong but looks stronger than any other choice(which I think are out of scope).Looking to see the right answers

shiva,
i also chose the same options for both, but unfortunately got both of them wrong. As per the book, correct answers are 1. (B) 2.(B)
I m convinced with the answer to the first question now but not with the second question. Moreover, this argument seems very ambiguous to me. As
we understood that passage is critical to entrepreneurs but the author is has used "artist" and "entrepreneur" interchangeably. looking for ur opinion on this...are we gonna get these kinds of q's in real GMAT?

hi montaques,
the first line " An artist must suffer for his art say these successful entrepreneurs who attempt to pass themselves off as artist" is the one to focus on.
Successful entrepreneurs allegedly make money by selling mediocre drawings and pose as artists themselves.Secondly they also say that an artist must suffer for his/her art.
So 1B and 2A would be my choices.
2B, according to the book u r referring, seems out of scope.All they have discussed is financial deprivation.we don't know about any other deprivation but that does not mean that it is the only form of deprivation an artist can undergo, rite?
PS: i havent seen these 'fill in the blank' type Qs yet:)

If 'A's are ruled out then 'B's look good. In 1 he is being sarcastic about table-well laid so to make it complete some deprivation sort of thing suits.
In second when author says in the introductory statement artists must suffer he doesn't go on to say anything to discredit it. I have not come across these kind of questions (but I haven't seen a lot of questions either 😉 I have finsihed only OG11 nothing else and GMAT prep tests). I took gmat test last month with just 1 and half months preparation.I think you need at least 3 months and Go through OGs(10 and 11) atleast twice(I didn't complete it even once,a cardinal sin) .I ended up getting q(51) and v(2
(total 670) so spending most of my time in verbal to improve my area(I had over 90% accuracy in CR but sucked at SC with just 50 % accuracy). I think 1000CR series is good I have just started it.

I got (b) for both questions.
Although artists propagate the idea that they ought to suffer for all their bad works, they never do so because their works still sell.
So when the author says that artists don't suffer, he's obviously considering only the financial aspect of it. Hence, (B) for the 2nd question. For the first question, (b) is obvious from the overall theme of the passage (artists claim to suffer for their bad works while they actually don't).

hmmm..thanku for suggesting 1000cr...i was looking for some good material to practice CR...and goodluck for next time :rockon:

Got it....thanku for clarifying the second answer. well, how do u rate these q's?
...just wanted to know what kind of difficulty level one can expect in real GMAT
thnx dude but m nt 2 mch convinced with Ques1 explanation...in option D, if ppl r genetically susceptilble to diseases..this means they'll fall sick too...
may b m nt able to mae out the diff b/w options c & d
Ques 1. Within 20 years it will probably be possible to identify the genetic susceptibility an individual may have toward any particular disease. Eventually, effective strategies will be discovered to counteract each such susceptibility. Once these effective strategies are found, therefore, the people who follow them will never get sick.
The argument above is based on which of the following assumptions?
(A) For every disease there is only one strategy that can prevent its occurrence.
(B) In the future, genetics will be the only medical specialty of any importance.
(C) All human sicknesses are in part the result of individuals' genetic susceptibilities.
(D) All humans are genetically susceptible to some diseases.
(E) People will follow medical advice when they are convinced that it is effective
Well the confusion is between choices 'c' & 'd'.......
Very triky one, I will feel happy if I see something like this in the exam...
I would go with D.
Argument summary:
"Identify genentic suc to diseases + strat= so never sick"
If you denied stament D the argument is useless because you can not conclude that people who follows strat will never get sick.
Choice C, take into account that the argument does not say that genetic susc cause human sick...

Paki,
option (d) merely suggests that humans are generally susceptible to some diseases. But, they can be susceptible to some other non-genetic disease as well. Therefore, this statement doesn't provide full support to the argument.
However, option (c) clearly states that all diseases are genetically related.
Option (C) seems correct to me

I'd go for option C...The argument flows like this
genetic susceptibility towards diseases would be identified, strategies to overcome them would be devised => people who follow them will never get sick.
Now, to establish a relation between the premises & the conclusion, it is essential that we assume that all sorts of sickness result from genetic susceptibilities.Hence, (c)
anish_goyal SaysRead my answers inline above.
I would choose ,
1.c
2.b
3.c
In my opinion (D)Any field of study that employs scientific methods is a genuine scientific enterprise cnanot be the right answer bcoz we are not talking about just scientific methods but "controlled experiments and statistical tests of clearly stated hypotheses to examine the questions it raises.

4.d
Hello guys,
I am stuck with one CR question. here it goes...
1. In the twelth century the stained glass windows of Cathedrals were perceived less as works of art than as chronicles of ordinary lives of townspeople. Like modern magazines, they related stories of importent event, depicted prominent citizens in the society, and functioned as a record to preserve events for later generations.
Author of this passage makes her point by:
1) By comparing something foreign with something more familiar to her readers.
2) citing examples to illistrate the desired conclusion
3) stating her opinion and explaining why she holds it
4) expressing as fact something that is merely an opinion
5) reducing arts to its function as a means of communication

Ans should be 1) comparing something foreign...
Is it?
Ans should be 1) comparing something foreign...
Is it?
Yaah..it is indeed (1)...but whats the problem with (2)?
montaqes SaysYaah..it is indeed (1)...but whats the problem with (2)?
Well, there are actually 2 problems with (2).
1)There is no conclusion in the argument.She is just stating facts.
2)No examples have been provided.
The stained glass windows are being compared to magazines.
The answer for this Q is (B). I do not understand why ? Can some one help explain ?
20. Despite the approach of winter, oil prices to indus-
trial customers are exceptionally low this year and
likely to remain so. Therefore, unless the winter is
especially severe, the price of natural gas to indus-
trial customers is also likely to remain low.
Which of the following, if true, provides the most
support for the conclusion above?
(A) Long-term weather forecasts predict a mild winter.
(B) The industrial users who consume most natural
gas can quickly and cheaply switch to using
oil instead.
(C) The largest sources of supply for both oil and
natural gas are in subtropical regions unlikely
to be affected by winter weather.
(D) The fuel requirements of industrial users of nat-
ural gas are not seriously affected by the
weather.
(E) Oil distribution is more likely to be affected by
severe winter weather than is the distribution
of natural gas.
