Hi,
even after bad reiews, I bought the set of 3 from gmat focus today, it cost me almost RS 3500 or $65. Its a very big amount considering gmat exam.

If any of you who have gone through GMAT focus please let me know what is the best way to use them, also what should be the gap between exam day and gmat focus.

One thing is for sure, I am going to send a fi*thy mail full with s*it to GMAC chairman in case I get even single repeat from any of gmatprep, OG's, or OG's paper tests, I can not tolerate these bullshi*nesses...

Absolutely! i'm already frustrated with GMAC for repeating lot of questions in OG 12 from OG 11. For the cost they are charging, they shouldn't really be doing this.

@maihuna...

I did the GMAT focus 3 sets...ok..nothing great...

but boy, be prepared to write that mail...although its 2 months since my gmat and since 3 months since i tried Gmat Focus, i still remember at least one DS that was in common with OG...65 USD is huge fr the value that u get out of it [:)]

Hey check out Ian's opinion on GMAT Focus here. I myself have not used it, but I would definitely trust Ian

Thanks DanaJ for the link, what is worrying me is that someone has mentioned almost 40 Q are repeat from OG-12, so if that is the case it will be a huge loss. Do you have any idea about overlap between OG-12 and gmat focus?

I honestly have no clue. I have not used GMAT Focus and have not heard a more competent opinion on it except for Ian's. Your best bet is to ask him.
