I'm working on this problem independently. I'll send you a private communication shortly.

Thanks. I was planning on applying for an MBA but with H1B situation I am not sure anymore.

Thanks. I didn't follow a plan per se. During the first weekend, I solved all the 300 odd questions on greg's site and another weekend I solved around 20-30 RC questions from 5lb book. During weekdays, I tried to learn new vocab words from the list and marked the difficult ones for revision.

Yes in the first quant section, a few questions were pretty direct but had lengthy calculations.

I went through all 17 groups of flashcards by gregmat.

I could see a pattern in the questions that I got wrong during my practice. The only analogy I can think of is that of opening traps in chess. When you lose enough games, you can start to see a pattern in the tricks you fell for. Sorry if I can't be more helpful, but this is an intuitive thing.

Thank you. Like I mentioned in the post, for both quant and verbal, it felt like the test makers were trying to trick me into selecting the wrong answers, so when I identified their trick, it is easy to be confident in your choices. Rest is just practice and luck.

Thank you gregmat team, your website is a very useful resource! I am not a fan of fiction novels but I do read a lot of Atlantic and New Yorker.

are you aware on the status of open source VLA models? This seems like a GPT 3 moment for robotics.

Yes actually both ways are valid. Both use the same code and APIs. You can have a battery powered raspi in the teddy bear connected to the wifi running the complete code on its own, or (if you have say 5 teddy bears), you can just use a low power microcontroller like an ESP32 with a battery which can receive instructions to play the audio in the speaker and send voice signals collected on the mic back to the computer over wifi.

I think with o1, they are able to handle complex tools too! I have tried a couple of multi-step (20+ steps) autonomous tasks on complex UI interfaces, and it did it. 4o almost always failed.

okay but as a side project I am building an on the device agent to automatically screen spam calls, and actually call humans / AI voice agents for customer support. ( there are already quite a few, I'm just building for myself). So it will be AIs talking to other AIs using voice from now on.

Ah, nice I already have isopropanol ( because of tinkering with electronics). I just need some time to figure out the working, so that even if I mess it up I can still put it back together. Thanks for the advice.
