Question about Kaplan GMAT Advanced 2009-2010 and Verbal

by wonderland130 » Sat Mar 28, 2009 1:42 pm
I am a long time lurker on the boards. I just took my gmat today and got a 680 =( 49 quant 35 verbal. I really need to improve my verbal before I attempt it again. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the new Kaplan gmat advanced 2009-2010 book. I am looking for a book that teaches the basic concepts of the verbal section. I am also looking for a book with 700-800 level questions if possible. Thanks

Great Quant score!

For my verbal prep I used ManhattanGMAT Sentence Correction guide, The Official Guide, and gmatfix verbal flashcards.

1) If you don't already have it, consider getting the ManhattanGMAT SC guide and go through its lessons.

2) Get the gmatfix verbal flashcards (you can evaluate some for free on the website); these cards are broken down into SC subtopics, with each topic giving you loads of examples and pinpointed lessons on how the topic is tested on the GMAT

3) Once you can go through the flashcards for a particular topic without error, use the Manhattan guide to find the specific questions in the OG that test the topic you're studying. Practice those questions and study the explanations carefully.

This is just a snippet; you can see my full debrief at www.tinyurl.com/gmatpost where I point out what worked from what didn't work for me.

Best of luck
