You can download the online version i guess for offline use and stuff idk
Don’t wanna make any comments which might make them wanna arrest me 🤣🤣🤣
😂 pS. The only benefit of the online book is that you can get it faster but a lot of times I’ve noticed that the physical books are priced much cheaper on Amazon than the electronic copies... so much for ebook revolution

Haha. I think you got possessed by the GMAT, that’s a bad sign 😂

I only noticed that I would start reading text and start pointing out potential traps in the argument or identifying assumptions as I was reading emails or news. I was suddenly reading for the authors Town and if it was positive or negative, and so on.

The crazy part is that once you get done with the exam, if you got the score you want, two weeks later it’ll be like a memory wipe. Pretty crazy.

It depends a lot on how you like to study core material. If you're ok reading pdf type files full of concepts, then online is probably fine. Otherwise go for the print books.

One benefit is simulating the "digital" exam environment, i.e. you get used to reading and responding based on screen. without writing/highlighting anything (in the question) on the paper.

However, the same digital feel can be achieved by practicing questions online.

Is there any major benefits in buying online OG over hard copies?
