GMAT Combinatorics 1.1: Practice Problems
Posted by Mark Skoskiewicz on December 27, 2011 3:45:00 AM CST
This post will give you some GMAT practice problems related to the post GMAT Combinatorics 1.0: Introduction. These will not be GMAT type problems as MyGuru takes a bottom-up approach to test prep. We want out students to learn the fundamentals first. At a later point we'll focus on useful tricks and traps to avoid in the problems solving and data sufficiency format.

This is an introductory post on combinatorics - the art of counting. Combinatorics is one of the most difficult parts of the GMAT because it is not part of the standard American high school curriculum. With many other troubling types of problems, such as rate questions, fraction / decimal / percent problems, etc., a bit of review and a lot of practice will do the trick, but, in general, to get a handle on combinatorics problems students have to learn something new.
