GRE Woes, Part 2

And now for a little Quantitative Analysis - 

If A is 25 km east of B, which is 12 km north of C, and D is 31 km south of A, what is the cost of tea in China?

Yep.  That's what it feels like to read these questions.  I mean, honestly... what do they want from me?  I keep coming back to my theory that they're after my cash... just a hunch...

GRE Woes, Part 1: ALACRITY is to LIVELINESS as THE GRE is to ENORMOUS PAIN

This is going to be a quick one - the GRE is awful. I have no idea what this test is supposed to prove exactly, but it's the worst exam ever. I have yet to figure out exactly what knowing the analogous relationship between 'saturnine' and 'spartan' have to do with anything at all, but I'm pretty sure there is a direct corelation to my cash. I'm apparently in the wrong business - I should have invented a way to make money off of something purported as "necessary" - like a Grad School entrance exam.
