Hi All

My thanks to everyone who is behind this successful and helpful forum. I am from Canada and have registered to take GMAT on March 10, 2008. I have started preparing 10 days ago and currently working with Kaplan Maths work book. The book covers all the basics but I found the questions are very simple ( I am not at all good at maths, I have a Biology background). I am skeptical as if I will be facing tougher questions in the real exam. I also have PR, Kaplan GMAT, Kaplan Verbal workbook, OG 10, OG 11 and Manhattan SC 2007. Can anyone suggest me which book can I follow. I am aiming for a score above 600 and only decent Canadian business schools.

Thanks

I think you've purchased the right materials for your prep. In the Kaplan GMAT Premier book you will definitely find tougher math problems to practice with, but the real gold mine in terms of practice questions is OG. Pay special attention to the last 100 questions or so in each OG section, they tend to be the most difficult.

Once you have the concepts down--by studying with Kaplan, PR--I would spend most of your time studying the OG book.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
