Hey guys. I just started prepping for the GMAT and would like to know what resources I should use for the math part of the exam. I took one of the tests from the official site and received a 700 on it (V 46, Q 41). My math skills are atrocious! I really struggled with math throughout the entire test.

I am looking for test prep materials that will boost my Q score from 41 into the high end of the 40s as I am looking to obtain a 750+. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I hear Princeton is very good for starters b/c it will teach you the necessary basic skills.

If you are already scoring a 41, I recommend the MGMAT quant books. I am using them right now and they have helped me a lot thus far!

Also if you get your hands on Kaplan, the CD gives you many good practice sections for PS and DS.

Also I have to say...you user id is making me very hungry lol :D
