Worth it to buy the new 2017 Official Guide?

The 2017 has some errors. If you do decide to get it before they bring out a revised edition, take a look at the errata documents here.

FYI, the corrected version has been available: announcement-new-corrected-official-guide-for-gmat-review-224154.html#p1726105

Missed that post. Thanks, HanoiGMATtutor.

Hi Gmaatic,

Many Test Takers spend 3 months (or more) of consistent study time before they hit their 'peak' scores, so you might end up needing more time than you've allotted.

Since it sounds like you're in the early phase of your studies, have you taken a FULL-LENGTH practice CAT Test yet? If you have, then how did you score? If you have not, then you can download 2 for free from www.mba.com (and they come with some additional practice materials). That score will give us a good sense of your natural strengths and weaknesses and will help provide a basis for comparison as you continue to study. A FULL CAT takes about 4 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take it in one sitting. Once you have those scores, you should report back here and we can discuss how you might maximize your studies.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
