books?

by gana » Mon Dec 06, 2010 2:05 pm
Hi,

I have recently been recieving the 60 day study plan. On day 4, it wants me to review the Kaplan gmat but I have all the books of Manhatan and Veritas prep. Do you think that the 60-day plan use these books? Why Kaplan book is better or different than study guides of Manhattan and Veritas. And, if these books wont be covered during the period of time, 60 days, what should I do with these study guides, study them same time or ignore them..... Please advise me. thank you.

You can certainly substitute books in this study guide. You will not be able to follow the page numbers and problem numbers for the parts of the study guide that reference Kaplan (obviously), but you can certainly map topics in your books to the ones that we tell you to review in the study guide.

Good luck!

Thanks for your prompt response. I have another question. Does Kaplan study guide 2011 subsitute 2010 edition. I only have 2011 edition. So, if they differ from each other, is there any way that you send me page numbers on 2011 edition.? email- 60 day study plan. If not, thats great.
Thanks again.

I haven't had a chance to review the 2011 Kaplan book myself, but from what I understand it is pretty similar to the 2010 edition. My apologies, I don't have updated page numbers to send to you.
