Pop Quiz #2

Ah, the comforts of home!! Gotta love Boston, and returning to 10"+ of snow on the ground on Thursday. (And that is definitely NOT a complaint.) It was a long 24 hours of travel home, and Ella got about 5 1/2 hrs sleep on the 13 hr flight. (Kyla & I got a combined 4 hrs of sleep!) At least we made it home to sleep in our own beds.

So, while I try to buy some more time attempting to return to my blogging rituals, recovering from jetlag, and adjusting to non-Chinese prices....Here's another pop quiz in time for the holiday season.

Read the question below, and select your answer in the radio buttons in the right margin. The correct answer and results will be posted after the New Year...

[BTW - if the format looks familiar to some of you, that's because its modeled after our beloved data sufficiency questions on the GMAT. For the rest of you...it'll be confusing, but will give you a taste of the crappy kind of questions MBAs have to endure just to apply to programs...]

Question:

In the course of the last year, China has had:

1. The world’s first company to have a market value of $1 trillion

2. Only 0.6% of the $50.4 billion in 2007 capital investments (in Beijing) directly related to Olympic venues and facilities.

Answer choices:

A.	Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.
B.	Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.
C.	BOTH statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are sufficient to answer the question asked, but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient to answer the question asked.
D.	EACH statement ALONE is sufficient to answer the question asked.
E.	Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient to answer the question asked, and additional data specific to the problem are needed.

Good luck!!
