OG 13th Edition

by ADN1988 » Thu Mar 29, 2012 1:43 am
Hi,

The OG 13th Edition has just been released and I'm asking myself which should I follow now: 12th or 13th edition.

Things that I'm taking into consideration:

1) I'm taking my exam at 28th May;

2) I have ordered the MGMAT books and they link to questions on 12th edition, right?

3) There is no error tracking tool for 13th edition.

What do you think?

If the MGMAT books you ordered are in line with the OG12, then I think it's better to go with the OG12.

The Error Tracking tool is very useful.

Cheers,
Brent

Certainly agree with Brent - I would add that if you have the chance and feel like spending the extra $23 (price on Amazon) the 150+ new questions is a bargain. As I wrote in an article about Critical Reasoning on the OG13, the new questions do seem to bring the 13th edition more in line with the actual test.

So I agree definitely get the 12th edition to match your materials... AND get the 13th as well if you can swing it!
