Best Prep Company for GMAT Like SC Questions

by AbhiJ » Fri Aug 05, 2011 2:12 pm
Which prep company has question similar to GMAT Sentence Correction. I am looking for additional practise on SC questions , preferably in the form of a book/question bank.

There are many sources of questions like tests of Veritas, Knewton , Master GMAT. However they cannot be used for targeted practise.

I don't know whether they use the same materials for their online platform as in the classes but Veritas Online stuff is not good. I'm using it right now.They brag about 15 CAT. But not really, they buy a bunch of the stuff if not all of their stuff from third party. There's copious amount of errors and the SC is especially bad. Gmatlife (part of the 15) is useless. And the quant is way too easy (except for 800 scores, also part of the "15"). Avoid them for sure.

For SC -- the best questions are in the OG books. The 12th edition main book and the blue supplement -- both cover all the important areas.

Manhattan's SC guide is the best in the business! It comes with an excellent online question bank.

The Kaplan questions are excellent as well. Also attempt the 60 or so questions in the advanced Kaplan guide -- these are the toughest questions of the lot and can help you further refine your skills.

I found veritas' probability book quite useful. I also found theie CR2 book to be helpful -- was given both by my friend.
