Are you intimidated by probability questions on the GMAT or Executive Assessment? Do you lack confidence in the fundamentals of probability?
Alternatively, are you aiming for a 50 or 51 in the quant section? Do you want to make sure you've covered everything?
In this video, Charles -- the founder of GMAT Ninja and owner of a perfect 800 score -- will show you how to think about probability questions on the GMAT or EA. He'll show you that there's actually remarkably little variation in probability questions, once you understand the fundamentals.
The difficulty level in this video will be gentle in the first half and tough in the second. The focus in the first half will be on your conceptual understanding of probability. In the second half, Charles will dig into the variations the GMAT or EA could throw at you to make probability questions difficult.
