Hi all.... I have recently started preparing for the GMAT.... I am weak in Maths as my background is Bachelors in Computer Applications...... Among the Topics I find tough in Maths are Permutations and Combinations..... Probability and Coordinate Geometry.... I need to know better ways of dealing with these topics.....

Besides guidebooks, another good source includes Jeff Sackmann's math sets. He divides his products into math categories, so you can find separate "Geometry" and "Statistics and Sets" problem sets. They're a bit expensive, though.

A big help for me in the maths was repetition. Even on certain types of questions that I didn't really have the theory down for at first, after pounding out practice questions after practice question, I started to figure them out.
