Hello all..

Does anyone have an e-book of Total GMAT Math by Jeff Sackmann.

I'm looking to improve my Quant Score from high 30's to high 40's.
The book is pricey & delivery to Mumbai, India would take a minimum of 2-3 weeks.(From Amazon)
Kindly help me out by emailing the same to [email protected]

Currently, I'm working with the Manhattan Series & OG Questions. Do suggest other options to improve my Quant Score.

Thanks :)

Hi golani.kunal,

When it comes to studying for the GMAT, there are a variety of options and resources that you could use. Is there any particular reason why you're so focused on this one e-book?

I'd also like to know a bit more about how you've been studying so far and your timeline/goals:

1) How long have you been studying?
2) Have you used any other materials besides the books that you've mentioned?
3) What is your score goal?

4) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School?

For extensive, topic by topic practice you could use the quant part of the question bank here. https://bellcurves.com You can access it by going to the GMAT area and setting up a practice account.

For more practice, you could use the Veritas Question Bank.

Hi golani.kunal,

From what you've described, it looks like you've been using a 'book-heavy' study approach. Many Test Takers who study in that way end up getting 'stuck' at a particular scoring level. Even the best books are limited in what they can teach you; they also can't force you to approach questions in a certain way and their explanations are often one-sided. This is all meant to say that adding more books to your routine might not be the best thing for you.

1) How have you been scoring on your practice CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
