OG11 is the best book for quant prep. I have heard that https://www.4gmat.com/ has a very good quant guide.

The math bible from https://www.gmathacks.com is good and also a book called Math Review For Standardized Tests from cliff notes. And if you have time check out a book called, how to solve word problems in algebra. Good luck!

Agree. Try the MGMAT series. The OG won't help you much right now. It's great for practice problems, but right now you need to master the concepts.

Basics? I'm assuming you're not trying to get a 48+? If you're not and are targeting something in the 45-47 range, you should be ok with just a Kaplan/PR book and the OG to practice with. Get the quant supplemental book as well.

I think mgmat is really for people who want to fully understand all the concepts and score highly 90th%ile+
