I am interested in purchasing the Manhattan Sentence Correction Guide and getting access to the Manhattan GMAT test series. I was thinking of purchasing the SC book from the website itself where it costs $26, but its delivery charges alone are about $36 in my country (India). The website also lists retailers in India from whom I can buy the book. My doubt is if I buy the book from any of these retailers would I still get access to the test series.

Thanks for your interest in our material! As long as you purchase a new copy of the book, you will get access to the online computer adaptive tests. Each book comes with a unique code, so if you buy a used copy of the book, chances are the code will have been used and the access will have expired. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Best,

Thanks Matt for your reply. I have one more question. Is there any way I can verify the authenticity of the book and whether it is new by looking at it.

Officially, there's no way to verify the authenticity. However, new books will have scratch off stickers inside the back cover that are not scratched off. If the sticker is scratched off, then it's probably used. Hope that helps!

Thanks again,
Matt

"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."
