Conditions
- used the online code for one of the books from the set for Manhattan CAT (you can use a code from one of the other 9 books to access the CAT)
- used the online code for Manhattan GMAT Advaced Quant to access online question bank
- GMAT Review has tear and penmark on the solution section: pages 765 - 766, otherwise, every other page is free of highlight or writing

How I used these books
For Quant,
1. Quant books from the set are great for review of general concepts in the first few weeks into the GMAT prep
2. Do official GMAT problems from the Quant Review and Official Guide
3. Advanced Quant for content review, tactics and strategies (helps you reach from 49 to 50~51 on Quant)
For Verbal,
1. Sentence Correction: PowerScore SC is great for the basic grammar review
***unlike Manhattan SC, PowerScore have questions at the end of each topic; although these questions are somewhat easier than the
actual GMAT questions, these questions are helpful in mastering contents for grammar
Critical Reading: Manhattan Set
2. Sentence Correction: Manhattan Set
Do problems from GMAT Guide and Verbal Review
For IR,
1. Actual questions on GMAT are easier than Kaplan or Manhattan.
Don't need to spend time practicing for this section; Solving the section on Kaplan / Manhattan CAT is enough to get 7 or 8 on the actual exam
For AWA,
1. Use a template with 300 ~ 330 words then add some details (roughly 200 ~ 300 words)
With over 500 words, relevant response to the topic, and transitional phrase, you can easily get 5~6

Use the code from Manhattan set for Manhattan CAT (6 Tests) and Kaplan 2013 Premier to access Kaplan CAT (5 Tests)

These books will be shipped via USPS Media Mail and will likely take 7 ~ 10 business days.
