My last GMAT was Q44 V40 690

I'm taking GMAT on 7/10

Basically I have 1 week to just go over practice questions and need a good source.


I am doing the MGMAT CATs, GMAT Prep on the second week.


What practice questions do I need to look at to get the best practice.

I already went over all of the MGMAT study guides. I think OG12 and OG Quant and Verbal review are not great sources of 700 - 800 questions.

Is Princeton Review 1012 - would it be a waste of time or should I go over it. I don't want to waste time and get straight to the point. The point is I need to answer a few more 700-800 level questions right to get over the hump and clear in 730.

Does anybody have any recommendations ? Use/avoid PR 1012? Anything better?

Thanks

As far as I've heard, Princeton 1012 is not for 700+ takers. Moreover, there are lots of printing errors in the book. You can study the review in amazon.com

If you want challenging problems, why don't you try MGMAT's Challenge problems? You may find some info about the resource in manhattangmat.com

Have you tried the Challenge sets? JMO, but I've found it to be so difficult, that it's practically irrelevant.

I have done princeton 1012.
The problems are not of 700 level.
If you are targeting 600-700 then this book can give you a good practice.
I will rate the book as average.
