Hi,
I noticed that Gmat has several repeated topics in gmatprep file,ogs,old papers,etc. Since i have no ideas about American history then pls guide me.
I googled but i feel wiki doesnot help much. I would like to find some books ( I think they should be textbooks) to help me understand about American history ( from when Bristish came), about Native American, African American Slavery, The Great Depression, Civil War, Women's right,suffrage movement(origin and how developed....etc)
Besides i would like to find some books which help me to understand Black Hole, the origin of Universe, Galaxy,etc
Any thought. Thank you.

Hi
When are you planning to write your GMAT?
General reading is recommended strongly if time is a luxury. However, if you have less than two months to prepare, I suggest you limit your reading to existing RC passages within your prep material.
However, if you want to increase your knowledge of American History, then reading biographies or autobiographies of historical figures such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin etc. will be a nice place to begin.
Regards,
Amrith

Yeah, I agree that reading up on American History is probably not the best use of your time. I think reading scholarly articles is good, but not a textbook on American history. Arts and Letters Daily is a good resource for difficult articles and you can certainly find some History/Science ones on there that will be at the level of GMAT reading.
