Hi All,

Just sign up today, new to the community, nice to meet you all.

I'm planning to do the GMAT and plan to score over 650.

I'm beginning to read the articles and gathering resources from this site, however I would like to ask some personal opinions as well,

I will be doing self study, and I have few general questions regarding books, I am trying to determine what kind of book I need to get from the recommended list. I am more weak in English so I would like more practice on that.

I will be getting the official GMAT guides for sure,

1) What book is good for strategies? (especially for English)
2) How many books should I get?
3) Is 650 relatively high score? If so, what books are good for advanced focus problems?

I'm sure I will have more questions, so advise will be great, now back to reading this site =)

Thanks All,
Zero2010

"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."
