Hello,
I took the GMAT last year and scored a 690; I'm looking to retake the GMAT and score in the 720-740 range, and I specifically want to improve my Quant score. I've already exhausted the Manhattan GMAT Books, and I'm thinking about reviewing the Total GMAT Math Book and the additional problems sets associated with it. Does anyone have any opinion on this plan, or would you suggest different a different approach? Thanks for your input!

It's not necessary to purchase a new set of books after finishing the Manhattan series. I suggest re-reading the books that you already have. Use the saved money to purchase the GMATClub tests and Jeff Sackmann's math sets. A score of 690 indicates that you have a firm grasp of the concepts tested on the GMAT; some additional advanced question practice and a few adjustments in your test strategy should enable you to reach your new goals.
But if you still want something beyond the standard Manhattan math series, you can look into the company's Advanced GMAT Quant book

It's difficult to give you a recommendation because I don't know your score breakdown. Is it heavily verbal skewed? If it is, you may benefit from Total GMAT Math. I am using TGM right now as my most recent score was decent but was skewed verbally and I felt I needed a thorough review of the core concepts. It helps that a lot of the practice he gives you are adaptations of OG questions, this is one thing the MGMAT books doesn't deliver (I have the whole set of these as well). If you're scoring high mid-to-high 40's in quant I'd agree with BM and say that you probably just need more thorough MGMAT review, maybe Jeff's 1800 questions and the Club tests.
But, in my situation, I have the MGMAT books and decided to give Jeff's book a try and really love his approach. I will use it in tandem with my MGMAT books once I am comfortable with the concepts and examples to go over the stuff that is still giving me trouble but I feel that TGM is a great resource.
I have yet to take a CAT to see if there has been any improvement as I'm trying to master all of the concepts first, but in attempting practice questions, I am noticing an improvement.
