Hello All,
I am considering the Weekend Crash Course offered by Manhattan Review. I've done the self-study with Veritas Prep and would like to go into the actual test with real confidence. This weekend review; however, is some very expensive confidence:) I feel comfortable with basics in Quant but could use some more instructor led guidance and need more in-depth explanation with how to attack the Verbal sections. I’m currently practice testing around a 45-47 in Quant and 35-37 in Verbal. That is after my latest two practice exams. I must take the exam within the next month, so my time-line would be the weekend course followed by the actual exam within a week or two.
Is this weekend CRASH course worth the money, time, and effort??
Thanks for any help and advice!

Hi, there. I'll give my 2 cents on this issue. 
For what it's worth, I would say you will get much more bang for your buck if you use Magoosh. We have over 200 lesson videos, included detailed content & strategy lesson for the verbal part of the test. We have 800+ practice question, each one with it's own video explanation. I believe the prep we offer is every bit as good as MGMAT, but we are way cheaper.

From what it sounds like, you are already scoring fairly well on your practice tests.
If I were in your shoes I would want to know what the course covers. Most crash courses try to cover all aspects of the test, and give you an idea of everything, but don't go in depth into anything. If you already understand the test format, and have a good grasp on many concepts, you might be light years ahead of the average student in that class. This class might also be geared towards the person that needs a 550 or 600 to get into their program, and doesn't want to dedicate months to studying. It might serve you better to drill down on the concepts that you believe you can work on, or purchase packages from companies that will offer specific problems, material, videos, etc directed exactly at what you need.
If you are going to spend the money, there are most likely better options to help you with the remaining concepts you need to know to break that 700 barrier. PS, with one month to go, I would book your test day, and start working towards the finish line. You are close, and 3-4 weeks could be enough to get you there with some well calculated studying. You just don't want to get stuck with a crappy test time or day of the week.
