GMAT Official Guide (OG) 2022 Now Available

WooHoo! I just got the OG 2022 Delivered!

Looks like they are shipping and arriving earlier than expected!
Amazon is also showing OG 2022 in stock!

Are there any new questions in Verbal Review 2022 and Quantitative Review 2022?

No. We questions in any of the 2022 OG. Nothing in the main book or the quant or the verbal OG. Straight reprint of OG 2021.

Hi all, I finished OG 2022 and would like to practise more with old guides (i.e. 2021 or 2020). Is it worth to do or old guides also contain same problems?

Hi intlawgrrl,

To start, while the OG books are great sources for practice questions, they're not designed to teach you Tactics, patterns or the little 'secrets' behind the GMAT - for those, you'll need Course-oriented materials. The recent versions of the main OG (the GMAT2022, GMAT2021 and GMAT2020 books) are all remarkably similar to one another - so if you are looking for LOTS of additional OG questions to practice with out of a book, then you would need to go back to an older version of the OG (such as the GMAT2016 or GMAT2017).

Before I can offer you any additional advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
3) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?

Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

On Wiley, is there any one to filter for the online-only questions?

Does anyone know when will the OG 2023 be released? I have OG 2020 hard copy and want to get an ebook version due to a travelling job. waiting for OG2023 seems to be the right call as the release timeline is not that far based on last year's release date. Thoughts?

Is there a possibility of buying the Old OG pdf access from someone who doesn't need them anymore?

EDIT: Created a new topic for this.

Hi JB2711,

Neither Wiley nor Amazon has a listing up yet for the GMAT2023 version of the Official Guide (normally, the listing goes up months in advance of when the new OG book will be available - so it might not be safe to assume that a newer OG will be available in the next couple of months). The last couple of version of that book have been remarkably similar though (and the overall practice content was almost identical in the GMAT2021 and GMAT2022), so if you're interested in an e-book version for your studies, then you would be fine with either of those two options.

Since you have an older print copy of the OG, how long have you been studying? Have you taken the Official GMAT and/or any practice CATs/mocks yet?
