Hi Guys,
First I want to say thanks a lot for being such a great community. I learned lots of valulable advice from this site.
I have been accepted to my top choice school, but found out that I can obtain a scholarship if I can raise my gmat score 30 or more points.
I don't want to say my score but my verbal is very strong. My math needs a lot of work.
Here is what I've used so far:
Princeton Review Cracking the GMAT
Princeton Review GMAT math workbook
OG 10th Edition
I was considering getting the Kaplan book next because I heard great things about it. Supposedly it over prepares you for the real test.
Which kaplan book is the best? There are several... Kaplan 2005 and Kaplan 800. What are the key differences? Which would be the best for about 3 months of prep to raise a math score?
Thanks for the advice guys!

Kaplan2005 I believe is like a standard GMAT prep book. That is, it goes through the whole prep process - explaning what the gmat is and how your score is calculated, going through the quant basics, going through quant exercises, going through some verbal basics, going through verbal exercies and along the way, strategies (Kaplan's strategy) are included to help you nip the questions more efficiently (at least that's what Kaplan claims).
The Kaplan800, as the title suggests supposedly contains 800 level questions. I've a copy of the book. Verbal seems to be pretty tough (or maybe my verbal is crap, I don't know which is whic), but quant is a letdown. The quant questions in Kaplan800 looks like a 600+ level to me.
In my opinion, you're better off working the math questions in the math forum, or have a crack at the challenges here. But if you prefer a book, then with 3 months to go, get the Kaplan800. Since you already have the Princeton Reivew Cracking the GMAT, the Kaplan2005 would be quite unnescesary.
