Kaplan Advanced Class vs. Manhattan GMAT vs. Kaplan Basic

Expert replies

Hi everyone!

From what I've read here it sounds like the Manhattan GMAT course is by far the best available. However, what I am not clear on is if you need a certain level of knowledge / ability to do well in this course.

When I spoke with Kalpan, they told me about the Advanced course but that you need to test into it by scoring over 600 in your practice test. I am guessing but I think I will score a 400-500 on my practice. In HS I got a 1240 on the SAT and I took the GRE once a year ago and scored a 470 on verbal and 580 on math with a 5.0 AWA. I'm hoping to somehow get a 700+ on the GMATs or at least over a 650 (I'm not sure if that is possible given my abilities) and want to take the best class that will help me not only with test taking strategy but also force me to do a lot of hard problems to get my mind thinking like a standardized test taker again.

Do you have any advice for me? I'm scheduled to take the test Dec 10.

Hi Joy,

I naturally recommend Kaplan, but I might be a bit biased :-)

That being said, I'm happy to address your question about the difference between out regular and advanced programs. The two are very similar; however, the advanced class includes a supplementary workbook of advanced problems, which the teacher will review in class in favor of the more straightforward problems in the normal course book.

Given your GRE score, it definitely sounds like the Kaplan Basic class is right for you. The two classes cover all the same concepts and strategies, so you won't be missing out on anything, and with the basic class you'll have an opportunity to cover that material at a pace best suited for your learning. But remember, a Kaplan class includes all nine sessions available as videos On Demand. If and when you start scoring 650s, and want to work your way up even further towards a 700, you should have no trouble upgrading to an advanced course. Then, you will be able to advantage of those videos to see the more advanced applications of the same underlying concepts.

Let me now if you have any other questions!
