Hi,
Would it be possible for someone to share the links for RC reading sites as recommended by GMAT Ninja in his well read article on GMAT club?

Has anyone used TTP? If so, is it ok to jump around, or should you follow their plan exactly?

TTP tests TTP logic which is based on the OG, but it does not have the same exact language and trickiness. Mirror TTP lessons and chapter tests with related OG when you are studying for that topic or you will have a reality check when doing OG Prep mocks

Yep, I’ve been going through the program and mixing in OG questions for variety. I’m asking because as you know these chapters are LONG and I’m usually studying after work and weekends. Depending on my schedule I was wondering if it’s ok to skip ahead to a smaller chapter on busier weeks and come back to larger chapters. Not sure if going off course messes up my studying if it was designed to be followed exactly. Thank you!

Hi, I am going through GMAT NINJA quant foundation videos, however need more questions to practice the basics. Any resources to polish just the basics before jumping to OG and other GMAT practice questions

Hi iHarshita,

Maybe do a few of the easy official questions? That way you'll get some initial practice in, while leaving the medium/hard questions for later. If you're focused on only the basics, there are lots of free math resources, like Khan Academy.

I was trying to extend my GMATCLUB Tests Pro Package to 3 months, and it is given that 3 months package also includes 15 ExpertsGlobal Mocks without any additional cost. However, when I go to next page for payment there I am seeing option to add 15 ExpertsGlobal Mock in bundle for $25 (after discount on $50) for 2 months. Why is this the case?

Can someone who has purchased same Please clarify if I need to pay that $25 extra ?

Hello , I’m about to begin the GMAT Ninja study plan, but I have a few questions before getting started.

I’ve already taken the official GMAT in 2025 and scored 605. My target score is 695+.

Do you have any suggestions on how I can tweak this study plan to maximize my improvement? My weaker areas are Data Insights and Verbal.

Additionally, I already own the GMATTM Official Guide 2025–2026 Data Insights Review (online question bank), the hard copy of the Official Quant Review, and the Official Verbal Review 2022. However, I’ve already worked through most of these questions and remember many of them.

Given that, would it still make sense to purchase the GMAT Official Guide 2025–2026 bundle (eBook + online question bank)?

Hi Yudhajit22,

GMAT Ninja may give you advice on how to tweak the study plan, so I'll just answer your second question.

Imo, you don't need to buy the OG 2025-2026 bundle. At most, get the main OG. This is primarily to get the DI questions in the main book, which are different from those in the separate DI review guide you already own, and practice on the official interface through the online question bank on mba.com. After all, it's the official DI questions that are in short supply.

For Quant and Verbal questions, I think you can just use GMAT Club forums to get more questions. Questions in these two sections have not changed much for years so there is abundant inventory from the past. In source filter, you can pick all the OG and Quant/Verbal review guides all the way back to OG 12 and Quant/Verbal Review Guides 2nd Edition. That should give you a lot more official questions than just the 2025-2026 Edition.

If you are looking for questions at a harder level, you can also use the source tag "GMAT Prep (Classic)". These questions are from previous edition of official mock tests, and are generally considered to be a bit harder than the OG questions. Also don't forget, one feature of this study plan is to leverage LSAT resources to sharpen your RC/CR skills.

In summary, I'd say save the money on the 2025-2026 bundle, and use the money to invest in potentially further DI questions in the official practice question pack, or some sectional tests that you may need down the road.

Hello everyone,
I’ve just started my GMAT preparation, and my diagnostic test score is 615. I’m aiming for a target score of 725.
While I feel relatively comfortable with Quant and Data Insights, I’m quite confused about how to approach Verbal. I’m not sure which resources to use or what strategy to follow to improve effectively.
I would really appreciate any suggestions on:
The best resources for GMAT Verbal
How to structure my Verbal preparation
Any strategies that helped you improve your score significantly
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi DropletMaverick, if you like learning from videos, many people recommend GMAT Ninja RC and CR series on GMAT Club’s Youtube channel. A new RC series just came out one or two weeks ago, but the old series are equally helpful. If you prefer books, usual recommendation are either Manhattan Prep RC and CR guides, or PowerScore CR and RC Bibles. Learn strategies from these, then practice a lot using GMAT OG or LSAT questions, both available for free on GMAT Club.

Here are a few verbal "megathreads" on GMAT Club for more information: ultimate-verbal-study-plan-edition-233279.html; gmat-club-rc-mega-thread-414327.html; gmat-critical-reasoning-resources-collection-145178.html

GMAT and CAT are completely different in their pattern.
Try watching some review videos make a decision.
