HARD MATH

by dbodger » Tue Mar 17, 2009 4:22 pm

I know this has been asked before so I apologize ahead of time for the redundancy, BUT I need to know what math prep guides have the the hardest questions, question types likely to been seen on the actual gmat.

Most of what I have been studying and the practice tests I have been taking seen to have questions a lot easier than the actual test.

Thanks,
David

i have to the OG and the OG quant book. I had been studying them for 3-4 monthes prior to taking the exam. I found the actual exam questions significantly harder then the questions in both of those books.

Any other suggestions or advice?

I think that GMAT Focus is a great investment: https://www.mba.com/mba/store/ProductInfo?SKU=1612829X
This is computer adaptive so, if you're already scoring high, then most of your questions will be challenging. My suggestion is to turn off the timer, and take your time so that you answer more questions correctly and, subsequently, receive the toughest questions.
