OG 11 - Is the math difficult enough

by jpm33 » Sat Nov 10, 2007 1:42 pm
I have been studying for 2 months and felt as though I had the quant sections of the OG 11 nailed. On test day I blew it on the quant and only scored in the 50th percentile. Any thoughts out there on if the math in the OG 11 is difficult enough and if not what books would be good to get my math skills up.

Wow, that's quite a discrepancy. Sorry to hear about your experience...

How were you doing in your GMATPrep and other practice tests? Was your quant performance consistently strong? In general, I say that OG is a pretty accurate representation of what you should expect on the GMAT.

If you are looking for tougher math material, check out the Kaplan and Kaplan 800 books.
