This is GMAT Club's Most Popular 20 GMAT Books Please also see this recommendation: Best GMAT Books Did you ever wonder which GMAT Books are most popular? We did!
We looked at our forum and counted the number of times each of the GMAT prep books has been mentioned by our members and created a popularity ranking.Not sure about you, but I was surprised a little to see the books that made it to the top. On the other hand, the search results included all references starting with 2003, so potentially popularity of some books is inflated as others were not yet available back then. But again, at the end of March we will release the updated ranking that will reflect only results for March. I am not sure how to best post tables in the forum, so here is one version and also another version with links at the bottom: Code: Also, let me know if there other notable books we should include into our ranking and we will keep track of those as well. [b]Here is the same list but linked to Amazon.com - you can read their reviews as well. 1. The Official Guide for GMAT Review2. Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction3. GMAT 8004. Official Guide for Verbal Review5. Official Guide for Quantitative Review6. Kaplan Verbal Workbook7. Kaplan Math Workbook8. Cracking the GMAT by Princeton Review9. Kaplan Premier Program10.

After understanding the test, I heard that people move onto Manahattan GMAT. Any thoughts? Dear testme475Here are a couple collections of book reviews ---- 1) http://magoosh.com/gmat/2013/gmat-book-reviews-2013/This is a general review, good and bad. You can read my review of the Princeton Review book here. 2) http://magoosh.com/gmat/2013/best-gmat- ... rces-2013/This is just the cream of the crop. I hope this helps. Mike
