Hi,

The OG 13th Edition has just been released and I'm asking myself which should I follow now: 12th or 13th edition.

Things that I'm taking into consideration:

1) I'm taking my exam at 28th May;

2) I have ordered the MGMAT books and they link to questions on 12th edition, right?

3) There is no error tracking tool for 13th edition.

What do you think?

If the MGMAT books you ordered are in line with the OG12, then I think it's better to go with the OG12.

The Error Tracking tool is very useful.

Cheers,

Certainly agree with Brent - I would add that if you have the chance and feel like spending the extra $23 (price on Amazon) the 150+ new questions is a bargain. As I wrote in an article about Critical Reasoning on the OG13, the new questions do seem to bring the 13th edition more in line with the actual test.

So I agree definitely get the 12th edition to match your materials... AND get the 13th as well if you can swing it!

"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."
