Hello everyon I am new here, and I was wondering if anyone would tell me what they thought the best was when it came to review books. By review I simply mean a book that will be able to get me up to speed before I start taking practice exams and before starting book by say Kaplan.

I took the GMAT back in August, and didn't do so well. I want to make sure that I don't have to retake it AGAIN!

When I look at the Quantative section in Kaplan's GMAT 800, I am absolutly overwhelmed and have no idea where to even begin to solve the problems given.


OG 11 and MGMAT books. The OG is very succint in its theory - it's really more for practise. The MGMAT books (7 books in all) are great to build your basics.

I'm using the Kaplan Premier 2007 right now and I am finding very helpful. I mainly need help on quant so it is been nice starting from the beginning to refresh my memory and then increasing the difficulty as I go on.

I'm the same - I need to refresh and stregthen my Math basics. I however am not finding the basics in the Premier book by Kaplan. Did you like it?

I saw a few people recommend the Manhattan GMATs ... are they better than getting the Math workout/workbooks from either of Kaplan/Princeton or OG?
