Hello friends, we have 3 prep materials for GMAT Focus in the mba shop:
1. OG 2023-2024 (contain all 3 sections)
2. Official Review (per section)
3. Official Practice Question (per section)
While source 1 & 2 are clearly exclusive questions, as described in the page, I do not see such details in source 3. Does that mean If I purchase Official Review I would need the Official Practice Question? Thanks in advance

Hi. The review is a book which is basically a question bank in the book or online format. You don’t need to buy additional questions because the review is a bit deceiving. There’s not really much of a review, there’s only questions.

The questions in the review books are great but the review portion is not something you can depend on to solve those questions. It’s kind of like arming you with a toothpick against the tiger. I mean you may be able to win if you were really good but I wouldn’t bet money on you 😇

All three products are independent of each other so you can buy one of them.

Thanks BB, it is just confusing bro. For example the DI section: The Review contains 200 questions and a book for 21$, yet The Practice contains 100 questions for 30$

I would start with the books because they give the best value. You can buy the main official guide which is the best value and contains all the questions. The additional sectional review books contain extra questions that do not overlap with the main guide. Then you have the third category which is the practice questions And those are in addition to the guides. The questions do not overlap in any of them

You can buy them all but I would not rush into it. You can buy them one at a time as you need more practice

Sorry I wasn’t asking about the marketing qualifications. I was wondering what do they use to teach? I’m trying to evaluate their quality based on their teaching materials. I don’t think I can do that based on their marketing efforts unfortunately.
IMS and CL both are undoubtedly the best for CAT, but sadly for GMAT prep, they are not, maybe just yet. Going by their credentials in CAT and CAT prep does make sense, a mistake which I made.

Easy answer. Official guide is just a collection of questions. The review sections in it are very low value and you might as well ignore them. So you would start with the Manhattan guides

Hi everyone. I’m currently using the TTP study plan. Wondering how I could use the OG set or maybe something else to compliment my studying.

You would use them together. The guides are the chicken in your sandwich and the official guide is the bread. You probably want to eat them together instead of dragging out chicken smothered and ketchup first and then finishing dry bread 😇
