If this query is put in the wrong forum please let me know where to move my questions to.

I am thinking of ordering study materials for taking the GMAT. I have an engineering degree from a US school and am familiar with many math subjects but I am probably quite rusty since I graduated with my degree over 23 years ago.

In looking at the Book Recommendation links I see no books recommend from mba.com. As you can probably see there are tons of information a person can use. My concern is to use the "best" study material that more closely resemble the GMAT test. The list of books under Book Recommendation is the one I should consider ordering instead of books from the website mba.com right?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Hello,

You may get a better response in the general forums, rather than this one dedicated to questions and answers about the GMAT exam, our policies and other specific information about the test.

We have a wide variety of official prep products available on our website (https://www.mba.com/store). Our Official Guides are the only books featuring real questions from past exams, to give you realistic preparation.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Thanks,
Jeremy

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
