Hi everyone! I'm horrible at maths, barely passed in high school, avoided it as much as I could in university, however, I now need to get a good score in the quantitative section of gmat to get into the my school of choice. Can anyone recommend a book that covers all the math that is required for gmat and explains it in pretty basic terms? Thanks.

you should try basic math and pre- algebra for dummies by mark zegarelli (not sure of the spelling)...it can't get more basic then that...

as for other...i'm currently using both veritas and manhattan gmat books for quant...if u don't have time or money i wud recommend the manhattan gmat quant books...

hope this helped
