Is it just me, or is the Quantitative section of the GMAT much easier than the Verbal section?

Having struggled with the Verbal section and only increasing my score in minute incrementals, I have all but given up on my verbal; especially sentence correction. However, I have actually ordered Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction Guide as I heard it is a very good reference book to use (in hopes that I reallly can improve my verbal).

But other than that, I have moved on do preparing for the Quantitative - which is so much more enjoyable than the Verbal section.

Everybody is around. My entire family has come around for 2 weeks, before my sister flies back to Australia. Which means lots of good food and hopefully good fun, and of course, a few family arguments.

I am slowly going through the application form. It is almost like applying for a job.

Question - Which of your personal characteristics do you want to improve with the (MBA) program?

Answer - I have too many issues with my personal characteristics to list down for improvement. In general, lets assume like all other good MBA applicants, I would like to improve my leadership, analytical and logical thinking.

:P

Is there like, an ideal answer to the question? Maybe for characteristics A,B and C, I will get full marks. But for characteristics X,Y and Z - the school already has enough applicants with those characteristics and it does not want people with that profile anymore?

Applying for business school is very much like applying for a job, only the strange part is, once you get in, you are going to be paying them, and not vice versa!
