from LSAT to GMAT, unsure how to proceed

thanks vercules, i have the gmat club grammar book to strengthen my sc. is this insufficient so i should still purchase the mgmat?

also, for quant, what is your #1 recommendation (i have limited resources)

im in the middle of going through the Official guide but its not in depth although its comprehensive.

i've also skipped the cr and rc portions of the official guide because they seem to be exactly like lsat questions except that they are much easier. would you mind elaborating on the difference between the two different tests rc and cr portions?

sorry for so many questoins, but im gunning for a 750+ and want all the help i can get!

thank you, awesome score by the way, im jealous. what would be your #1 choice book for quant?

Travelerbk, I personally agree that the LSAT materials are really good practice for GMAT CR and RC. There are plenty of cosmetic differences (the LSAT is more time pressured, the GMAT doesn't have as many parallel reasoning questions, LSAT passages are sometimes a little bit more abstract, LSAT passages are longer, etc.), but if you're killing the LSAT, you'll probably be more than fine on the GMAT CR and RC. The core skills (precise reading and logic) you need for success are exactly the same.

I do strongly recommend maintaining your skills on CR and RC, though. You'll find the first chunk of questions in the OG (and official GMAT verbal guide) a little bit easy, but it's wise to continue doing at least one set of CR and RC per week, just to keep your skills sharp. And I agree with Vercules that it doesn't hurt to get some exposure to the GMAT CR and RC questions, since the styles are just a little bit different. Spend an hour or two per week on CR and RC, and you'll do wonderfully.

In all honesty, you're in a great position. CR and RC are extremely hard for some people to improve, so consider yourself fortunate. Sentence correction is definitely the most "improvable" part of the GMAT, and it's mostly a question of ignoring the "sound" of the sentences, and focusing on mechanics, logic, and meaning. MGMAT's books are probably your best bet for both SC and quant, though you might also check out the Thursdays with Ron videos--a lot of GMAT Club members swear by those. Generally speaking, it's a good idea to focus on building up your knowledge of quant and SC fundamentals first (using MGMAT books or something similar), so you might want to take a step back and work through the MGMAT materials before you burn through the entire OG.

Good luck with everything!

The only book I looked at was OG 12. Bunuel's problem sets are awesome. I uploaded docs with his practice problems on my debrief post. Good luck!

Good point about maintaining the CR and RC skills (last time I looked a LSAT materials was october, havent touched any CR or RC since then)
Thank you for the input and thank you all. This has been very informational
