Hi,
While going through my first mgmat test results i noticed I need to improve on the 700-800 level questions and somewhat on 600-700 level questions. Any suggestions as to which book/question bank covers this the best for Quant. Dana/Testluv/high scorers any feedback will be vey helpful.

Looking at your score report, I would say the biggest area of immediate opportunity is in improving on 500-700 level DS questions. DS is all about procedure, and less about content. Master a good method, and have that basic content nailed down...then, you can look into improving on 700-800 level...how's that saying go? You have to learn how to walk before you run, and learn how to run before you fly...or something like that!

Up until now, I have not had the chance to review materials covering truly advanced material. Kaplan Advanced did not live up to my expectations actually - I found their Math Workbook much more worth it. I've heard some good reviews about the Manhattan Challenges question bank - people say it's really, really demanding.

Hi batbond007

Looking at your scores, I think you need improvement on PS questions, you seem to be doing relatively better in DS. You need to improve on 600-800 questions IMO.

You may try MGMAT Challenge archive. Another option that has wored for me is to copy paste all the 700-800 level qns and incorrectly answered qns of MGMAT CATs in a word doc and re-do those questions and try 20-30 questions at a time and set time limit appropriately.

"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."
