hey guys,

i have not touched math for 5 years as i finished my degree in crim. but i have been reviewing basic math concepts, number properties, algebra, etc.

I have enrolled in the princeton review prep course which is to start next week. But in terms of my INDEPENDENT study, do you think the manhattan quantitative set (i think its 5 or 6 books) is enough to get me ready for the quantitative section of the gmat?

This is the link to to the books that I ordered: https://www.manhattangmat.com/storeitems ... 41&catid=1

please tell me if i need to review anything else or do these books cover EVERYTHING i need to know in terms of math. I just need to score a mid-600 score on the GMAT to get into my program.

thank you all for your help in advance

In a very simple response, yes, it covers every topic thoroughly.

thanks for your reply. what do you mean by "in a very simple response". Please elaborate. I'd rather know what i need to know before than find out new stuff later on.

THanks again

I think I actually complicated my response =). Manhattan GMAT's math series has everything you will need to know to tackle GMAT quant, and its CATs are as challenging if not more challenging than the actual GMAT. Mid-600 will not be a problem at all.

"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."
