Hello, I am very interested in writing the GMAT. I started to take a course with the princeton review however found that my math was very very weak. I needed to take some kinda of refresher or something that could help me review basic math concepts for the GMAT.

Does anyone know of a good book? I have the Official GMAT guide however I don't feel Im ready to do those math problems just yet....I need some kinda of general review that could help me.

Any recommendations on anything that could bring me up to speed and has good examples/explanations?

Great resource for Basic Math..I'm working with it now. The software that comes with it is great. Its in flashcard format but hits home the basics that I have completely forgot.
