Hi,

Both GMATPrep and OG Guide does not have any problem involving more than 2 sets.
They are limited to set A and B with union, intersection rules.

So, is there anything which we would need to know more on!? (3 sets and more)
Please help.

TIA,
GK

I have seen 3 set problems appear on the real GMAT and also on several mocks I have taken. There arent many 700+ problems you could ask involving only 2 sets, while more than 3 sets has never been asked, I strongly recommend you practice problems involving 3 sets. The underlying concepts are the same in sets and beyond a point it does not matter how many sets are there. But you need to practice until you are comfortable till that

"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."
