Hello everybody,
So I will be taking my GMAT on May 1st and thus have been studying for a bit already.
My first month is over and I finished all the Manhattan GMATstudy guides (the quantitative ones), the GMAT Math bible, and
the official guide (quant section).
But I have to say I am a bit disappointed. From reading on these forums (and others) these books are pretty much the most recommended books (esp.
MGMAT and
OG), and they do indeed seem the most in dept. But the questions in both of these are still fairly easy (even the so called difficult ones) and I find mistakes more than I hoped. So how good are these books really? If I would take the exam now (lets not consider verbal) what would be a realistic outcome?
Most of the questions in the books I had right the first time. But I don't feel like these books challenged me, at all.. based on what I studied, and as reference 700+score questions on these forums, I feel like the questions in these books are for the 500 range scores. Is this feeling accurate?
It is not necessary that I am disappointed about the content and quality of the book, but maybe more of the promise that they will prepare you properly. I don't really feel prepared at all for the math section, but if these are the better recommended books.. what else is there to do?
Anybody else sharing the same feelings?
Thanks,
