Fellow GMATters,

I need to improve my quant score and apart from the 'traditional' GMAT prep books, I ran across a sample of the book titled "How to prepare for quantitative aptitude for the CAT (3ed)" by Arun Sharma.

The concepts are very well explained there and there are plenty of practice problems.

Unfortunately, the book is not available in Europe

Has anyone used this book for preparation before? If so, I would like to hear your opinion.

I would be very grateful if you could please share an alternative way of how to get this book (PM me).

Thanks a lot!

Happy GMATting!

Hi Vishnu,

I covered the MGMAT guides but I was looking for some additional material. I took a look at the book from Arun Sharma @GoogleBooks and the some of the problems there looked challenging. Additionally, there were some really good explanations of some concepts that are frequently tested on the GMAT.

Thanks anyway,

ikaplan

"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."
