Guys,

I'm seeing alot of negative reviews regarding Kaplan. Would it be better if I went with Manhattan's Guided Self-Study? I was thinking of going with the Prep Plus option and studying with the recorded video content. Good idea?

I don't know Manhattan's self study guide, but I've used Veritas Prep online course. I have access to the On Demand option, which you use it as a self study guide, and can certainly recommend it. No video content, which in my case is great because my internet speed is extremely slow, but very clear content and useful strategies and tricks.

I have not used self-guided options but Manahattan's material is most respected and through material available. I think one set of company/books can not provide everything. So once you complete any set of books, look for advanced or concentrated material for practice. This is just my suggestion.

I have gone through complete MGMAT guide & also Kaplan online materials.

As per my opinion:
MGMAT books are better than Kaplan.
Same apply for MGMAT CATs in comparison with Kaplan CATs.
But in CR, powerscore is better than MGMAT

Happy Xmas & Happy New Year
