In most likelihood, you will only get one or two combinations/permutations questions per test. Typically, the questions are quite challenging. Knowing the standard formulas won’t be enough; you’ll also have to use logic, and a fair amount of grit. Below is a question that will really force you to think, and rely on that grit. If you can get this question right in under 2 minutes, without a bead of sweat falling from your brow, then you are most likely ready for anything the GRE will throw you test day, combinations/permutations-wise.
Answer and explanation coming soon. Until then, let’s see who can get it. Good luck!
