I am interested in taking a GMAT Prep course as well and am curious if anyone can speak to the pros and cons of MGMAT versus let's say, Princeton Review? I'm not a fan of classroom instruction but with self study not going too well, I figure a course can't hurt... Been consistently scoring 590 and 6...
