"There is no such thing as a free lunch"

That is the Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Freidman's trademark phrase. In economics, everything comes with a cost. So it is with the GMAT.

The test is adaptive, a Computer-Adaptive Test (CAT), which means that questions will match your skill level. There should be very few easy questions that you can solve in a few seconds. So if you are a top student, expect to see very hard questions. If you are a poor student, expect easy questions (that you will still struggle to solve).
