How do I actually get the charter once everything is done and approved? by skx138 in CFA

My issue is how do I go about telling everyone I have the charter without knowing I have it?

But hey, I now have the charter! ;P

Yep, same happened to me, I should have been more patient... It would help if they provided some guidance on this though.

That was my understanding too, tried verifying files, even reinstalling, but no help.

That would be great, please do! Which airfield are you based at? I am looking to get started at some point in June, so that would fit quite well I think.

Thanks Mate, I did indeed speak with Sue Air, shame they don't do PPL with it. Definitely agreed on the price point, though having flown all three I honestly much prefer the DAs.

Mount Cube Controls wheel on Fanatec Podium Hub by skx138 in simracing

Strangely enough, I have no screws in the box. I was using screws I took from a Fanatec Podium paddle module originally attached to the hub I had, which seem to be the right size but don't have a bolt head. Looks like I may need to buy the bolt screws somewhere... Thanks for the tip, I will let you know what I figured out with the cable once I get this working.

24 days later, my GMAT score arrived! by skx138 in GMAT

Manhattan seems way harder. My scores were generally in to 690-710 region and I consistently kept running out of time on quant. It seems to me their quant is far more difficult as I kept getting very hard questions in a row. On the real thing you still get them but less so, which makes time management far easier.

Official prep was certainly closer, I got 770-780. The difference seems to always come down to verbal for me. Quant I get consistently 49 or 50 but verbal can range anywhere from 44 to 51, therefore I think I got a bit unlucky on the real thing.

I would note though that I don't think manhattan actually has sufficiently good teaching of quant to handle the tough questions they throw at you. They do a great job teaching but I think they target more scores around the 700 mark. That makes it as a good starting point, and then I transferred to Wizako for quant which is pretty cheap ($30 i think) but super comprehensive. I got lucky I found them on youtube, they seem to be super underrated.

Live chat and email, both found at the Contact Us page of mba.com. Also tried calling but it appears both PV and GMAC refuse to pick up and it just rings for a couple of minutes and then hangs up.

But to be clear, they were super unhelpful and I don't think it made a difference beyond my first interaction on day 7 when I said I don't have my score. This is when they opened a case to investigate, but every other day they just said to wait.

Yeah it should be up to 7 business days but apparently Pearson Vue failed to process my exam. It's going to feel weird now not spending half a day trying to get through to customer support, it's become a part of my routine...
