Book recommendations!!! Please help

by cvsanthosh » Thu Aug 05, 2010 6:22 am
Hi all,

I just took the free MGMAT test and this is the first time I have given a gmat exam. I scored 590. I have three months before my exam date. I need assistance regarding the books to purchase.

I have already purchased OG 12th edition. For a strategy guide,I am thinking of purchasing Kaplan Premier 2010.

I scored very less in Verbal in practise tests. So I am thinking of investing in two more books.

1. Manhattan sentence correction guide
2. Powerscore Gmat CR bible

So will the above mentioned books (OG 12 , Kaplan , MGMAT SC , CR Bible) be sufficient or am I investing too much for a period of 3 months. Or should I try with Kaplan and if I have problems with Verbal still, then may be I can go for MGMAT SC and CR Bible.

Please help.

This post from last week seemed really helpful and thorough: https://www.beatthegmat.com/manhattan-or ... 62524.html

Obviously you probably need the OG series too.
