I would say first take a Diagnostic test (either from OG13 or from GMATPrep free software). This would give you a good understanding of your strength and weakness.

If Verbal comes out as a weakness, i would suggest e-gmat course (online) for SC and CR.
Some of the free videos on RC are also pretty good.

So all in all, OG 13 + Manhattan Guides + e-GMAT should be good enough content for study. Word Problems, SC and Number System is particularly good in MGMAT. If after substantial practice, your verbal score doesn't improves, e-GMAT is the way to go.

thanks, N

If you have the MGMAT Guides, you might consider signing up for BTG's free 60-Day Study Guide (https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/gmat-guide).
