In general, I trust all books coming from Manhattan GMAT. I can't comment on the CR or RC books though because I haven't had the chance to review them yet. I have however reviewed the SC book and it is fantastic.

Hi Eric,
Im planning to take my GMAT exam early next yr(Jan end -early feb). Im thinking to buy OG11, OG Quant & Verbal. Will these books be sufficient?
How abt thses books:
-Kaplan Math Workbook
-Kaplan 800 2007-08 ed
-Kaplan Premier Program with CD 2007 ed
-Princeton Review - Cracking the GMAT with DVD 2007 ed
I dont want to buy too many books as i not only have less time but also I'll end up getting confused. I've done engg. so i guess one referral book for quant n one for verbal along with OG11 will be enough for me. What do u recommend?
Looking for ur early reply,
Thanks,
molly |

I think you're right that you probably won't need many quant books. However, think about adding the Manhattan GMAT SC Guide to your list, it's really great.

| Hi, I already have the OG Quant & Verbal, and they are very useful. I wanted to know in which way the OG11 is different. Does it has more difficult questions? |

The difficulty level should be consistent. OG11 just has more questions for your practice.
