How to use MGMAT with the 3 OG's

Question

Hello all, I started prepping for the GMAT that I will be taking in the summer and I just have a question for he people who have been down this road and used the MGMAT guides in conjunction with the 3 OG's. When reading the MGMAT guides, what were you guys' strategy? Did you read one book at a time or did you alternate? Pretty basic question but I just wanted to know so I can adjust my study plan to the way that may work the best for me. Please and Thank you.

If I remember MGMAT assigns a set of questions as part of their chapter end homework from the official guides. I would just use the official guides to do the corresponding set of problems as you review the concepts one by one. There is some content review in the official guides but it is very condensed and may not be helpful to students just starting out.

Cheers,

When using the OG, one approach is to do the questions from the book on your own first. Then see our videos for how to approach OG questions here: www.gmatpill.com/official-guide-gmat/

Lastly, re-attempt the question with any new insights you may have gotten from the video.

Hm, I can't post a website, but I'm pretty sure I know what you're looking for.

If you own the MGMAT book, register it. Then go to 'Home' on the student center screen. You'll see 'OG Problems' right under student resources. If you can't find it, just ping me.

I'll let you know what we do for classes. We have students run through verbal and quant simultaneously, working along the way the OG problems identified in the strategy guide.

It doesn't matter much, but we start with FDPs, then Algebra, Word Problems, geometry and number properties.
