Hi all

Scott has pretty much said everything that there is to say about savetheearth's comments.

However, after reading these comments I couldn't just sit back and say anything.

Altough for professional reasons I haven't taken the GMAT yet, I have been using MGMAT books since November. I've bought all the math books + SC, and I tell you that they are really good.

I was very poor at Math, but after finishing the math part I noted that my math skills were a lot better.

The only part which I think MGMAT could improve is on the exercises that their books have. The exercises at the end of each chapter are great to solidify the content you learned, but are a bit far from the ones that are presented on the GMAT OG. However, the books are above all concept/strategy books, not pure exercise books, and the ones they have on the question bank are similar to the ones of the OG's.

I would only like to have in the books more exercises like the ones in the question banks, because they are so good :D .
