well 1000 SC/RC/CR are nothing but 1000 Sentence correction , 1000 Reading comprehension, and 1000 Critical Reasoning questions. And there is nothing to feel stupid about. When i frist started visiting forums i also did not understand many of the jargons but then, gradually, you get familiar... i will put up the link from where you ,and many others , can download these excellent materials.

Cheers

Also, the Manhattan Review Math Guide was really helpful. If you're good at studying on your own, that book is great.

Has anyone had a chance to see both the 2003 edition and the latest edition of Manhattan SC? Is the content different in the two editions?

Hello neeraj,

Well to know the answeres of 1000 series you will have to enable the hidden option from the tool bar.

Javed, just a tiny little detail to help you get a 6 on AWA. 'Cannot' is one word, so the topic should read 'books you cannot do without'.

I would also recommend the 1000PS and 1000DS. It's a good practice material. Also if you are targeting 700+ you might need to get access to challenges as well.
