Hey Alex,
I used Benchmark and portions of Kaplan 800 for Quant and had it work out very well. PM me if you have any particular questions and good luck bro!

Hey Nehs, It's my pleasure to help out bro. I did Benchmark and MGMAT at the same time and thought they were both pretty good. I thought Benchmark's CATs in particular were really helpful cause they had the same layout as the actual GMAT. PM me if you want more info and I'd be more than happy to sha...

Hey gottabeathard,
I think you have a great plan going and I certainly think that 2 months is long enough to get from 570 to 700. Just stay motivated and knock it out buddy. PM me if you have any questions.

Wow dude, sounds like you've thought it through and have a great plan going. Except for the Kaplan book, I'd say the rest of it looks pretty good. Not many people have had a good experience with Kaplan but you might change that up. Good luck dude!

Hey GMATHustler,
I feel your pain. I think you just need to analyze your performance and see where you need to focus your energy the most. I would then focus on studying with specific material for your weaknesses. Good Luck!

I think the best thing you can do is stay motivated and study hard. I would suggest that you analyze your performance heavily and focus on the areas that really hurt you. A lot of people bomb the GMAT their first time and bounce back and beat it their second time. Good Luck!

I agree. The MBA.com tests were by far the closest thing to the actual GMAT. I also found the Benchmark and MGMAT practice CATs really helpful. Good Luck!
