I am confused about difference between Manhattan GMAT Prep guides and strategy guides. The 5th and 6th rankings at this forum ( top-20-best-gmat-books-on-gmat-club-76582.html ) consist "8 Manhattan GMAT guides" and "Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction". Are they stand for Prep guides or Strategy guides?
What is the difference between prep and strategy?
Which one would be better to buy?

Is there a distinction? I think both of them are the same :)

Rank #5 is the collection of all 8 of the MGMAT guides. Rank #6 is only the Sentence Correction guide. If you get the books ranked #5, you'll get the SC guide that's ranked #6.

Hope that helps

The Manhattan GMAT guides(rank 5) are the set of 8 books that cover all the sections of the GMAT. Rank 6 is only the Sentence Correction guide(one of the 8 guides). You could order these books from the MGMAT website or Amazon. In the United States, many book stores like Barnes and Nobles too carry these books.

These books may be used a prep/strategy guides. you may choose to buy all the 8 books or particular ones such as Sentence Correction guide.

I'm using all the 8 books for my prep and I find each of the books valuable! Good Luck

You get six adaptive tests when you buy any of the eight books. Flipkart will send you an original version and the book would have the details about the procedure to access the adaptive tests. You also get online access to a set of 25 additional questions for relevant topics with each book.
