    go left to right describing the numbers.

    1
    you have one(1) 1
    you have 2 1’s
    you have one(1) 2 and one(1) 1
    you have one(1) 1 and one(1) 2 and two(2) 2’s
    then three(1’s) and 2 2’s and 1 1

    I had to get a hint though

    I read the GLAT ac ouple days ago and I love the question about improving on a blank space.

    Dammit I cheated, sort of. I got the answer then figured it out, stupid me. you can hide my comments.

    I’m hiding Dan’s first two, since he cheated, although I’m sure he would have gotten it anyway. Anyone else want to give it a try?

    I want to see you try to take the test and post it on your site. PLEASE. I would be very interested as to how many answers you get right, then I can compare it to how many I got wrong.

    I havent read it all the way through but do you think there are questions in there that there are no real answers to? The real questions not the essays.

    I have a site up for that software (softcme.com). I will show you what is done Sunday. I am so excited.

    AAAHH THE MORRIS NUMBER SEQUENCE… SO MUCH FUN. I’D TELL YOU THE ANSWER BUT THAT’S NO FUN! HAH!

    Hint: try *reading* it

    I should have known James would recognize it. For some reason I thought Nathan was a math nerd too; maybe he was just pretending.

    like most nerd things, i enjoy math a lot and do really well applying previously learned formulas, but have a hard time deducing new formulas. probably mostly because of my short attentio

    i quizzed james a bit on sunday and figured out what you meant by “reading” it. course, now that dan’s comments are back…well, sigh.
