I have heard the Kaplan books are basically a waste of time. Is this because the questions are not difficult or the strategies not helpful?

Also, the MGMAT Verbal RC and CR have poor strategies or are confusing???

Good idea.

Kaplan does a poor job of emulating gmat questions. In fact all of the companies do a "not so great" job. That's why OG + supplements + GMATPrep are so important. On the other hand, Kaplan is clearly the worst. They put horns on a dog and call it a bull. Some of their quant review is good, but not enough of a reason to buy their stuff.

MGMAT quant = excellent
MGMAT SC = the be all, end all
MGMAT CR/RC = huh? Is this the same company?
