Announcing GMAT FAQ

It’s been long since I declared about publishing GMAT FAQ -an easy Q&A list that covers most of the GMAT related questions. Creating ‘Frequently Asked Questions’ page was in my mind since I started this blog way back in 2006.
I scribed the list & answers, it must have been 4-5 years. A lot has changed since then, & I’ll make sure the information I publish is latest & correct. I’d post one question at a time. Twice a week. Every Monday & Thursday.
I’ve created FAQ specific feed so that all frequently asked questions covered, come under one category.

Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid – Albert Einstein*

That sums the current state of the educational system of universal design for instruction and assessment.

Assessing everyone using same test and scale proves totally unfair.

The examiner in pic says:

For fair selection everybody has to take the same exam: Please climb that tree.

I don’t want this measurement to be used in my company. We don’t have dedicated HR department for assessment and sometimes it’s convenient to use universal design. But that will unfair for some. #justsaying. I’m currently reading this thought-provoking book called Maverick
– related to HR and work culture.
*P.S. I cannot confirm whether the quote used above is Einstein’s or not but it conveys my point with the illustration below.
