Number Properties and Rate Problem Study Materials

by jgrontko » Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:38 am

Hello,

This is my first time posting here as I'm getting ready to take the GMAT again. First time around I scored a 610 and I'm trying to improve to the 680-690 range.

Anyways, my biggest areas of weakness are number properties and rate problems. Is anyone aware of study materials that might help me improve in these areas?

I noticed that Manhattan has a few math guides, one specifically devoted to number properties. Has anyone used the Manhattan math guides? Would they be a good investment for me?

Any help would be appreciated... thanks in advance!

Manhattan guides are good for learning the content; Official Guides and GMATFix Official Guide Companion are good for practicing and analyzing results

Thanks for all the help guys.

I've got about 7-8 weeks to go before I take the GMAT again.

I bought the Manhattan Guides on Number Properties and Word Problems. The great thing is that I get access to 6 of their practice tests. I plan to take 4 of the MGMAT CATs, the 2 PowerPrep CATs, and the 2 GMAC CATs. Between tests and Manhattan Guides I'm also working on OG 12 problems.
