Bought OG 12. Should I also buy OG 13

by PatrickDeb » Thu May 03, 2012 4:01 am
Hi folks,

By way of introduction, I am a graduate from the tiny Mediterranean island of Malta, and I intend to take the GMAT at the beginning of July.

A few weeks ago I ordered the OG 12 and the Princeton Review online, not knowing that the exam content was about to change. And now I find myself with a tricky situation. Bearing in mind the change in syllabus, would these materials be enough for me to do well in the exam? Or do you think I should go out and buy the OG 13?

All I know is that the Integrated Reasoning section does not count towards the final GMAT score, which at the end of the day is what really matters. So do I purchase the OG 13, or maybe another book to supplement the other two?

Thanks guys. I'm finding it hard getting down to work, since there are no GMAT courses in Malta. There isn't even a GMAT Centre, so I would have to go up to London to take the exam.

Thanks again and well done on this incredibly useful website!

If you have invested in OG 12 then don't worry you are not missing much. The difference between the 2 versions can be found here: https://www.crackverbal.com/whats-new-in ... h-edition/

What is important is that you download the new GMATPrep software and take the IR practice questions from there.
