Hi maihuna,

We appreciate the apology. We're always open to criticism - in fact, what you pointed out was indeed an error on our part - but it's just best to keep it constructive - our Instructors have worked too hard to get this material out!

I hope you can get more out of the 12th Edition Overview. Please be sure to let us know how the rest of the material looks!

Best,

Michael,

I just checked GMAT-12th edition at local B&N.
It looks similar to 11th edition with new 300 problems.

Thanks a lot for your detail analysis.

Hello Michael and pJackson79

Many thanks for your comments.

I have decided to purchase the book and am going to look at it purely as additional bank of retired GMAT questions for additional practice.I have done all the questions from the 11th edition and the supplements once.However, I need to do a thorough analysis of each to know why the right answer was right and wrong ones wrong.Iam in the process of doing so right now.By the time i get my copy of 12th edition, I think I should be in a position to attack the 300 new questions :-) I hope to have sufficient time on hand to analyse each one of them before I take my test.

Thanks to you and your MGMAT team for the detailed analysis. You have made my decision simple: I am going to buy the new edition.

I wonder why GMAC doesnt release a supplement containing all new questions separately when they release a new edition of official guide.If they do so, all the folks who already possess the previous edition can simply buy the supplement and those who do not have official guide can obviously opt for the latest edition.
