Hi all,

Looking for a review on the Gmat Total Verbal by Jeff Sackman. I'm currently using the Gmat Math version but cannot find a review on the Verbal version ....anyone?

Also, I was curious as I am trying to improve my RC and SC so that I can consistently maintain the 70 percentile on them and was hoping that might be a good book for some simple strategies that I can implement. I am no trying to overhaul as math is my improvement focus, but something that I can implement instead of just really the questions on the verbal and going with what sounds right... its served me ok but i took a dive of 9 pts to a 68 percentile on the actual tests so I'm trying to implement a few small things whilst on a break from my focus which again is math. Sorry to be long winded I'm not good at being concise.

Suggestions????

I will say it once and i will say it again

DO NOT BUY THE VERBAL GUIDE - TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY

YOU WILL FIND BETTER MATERIAL IN SAHIL'S NOTES, SPIDEY OR ANY OTHER NOTES FLOATING AROUND

i am not biased as i feel the maths bible is superb and very well written but i cannot say the same for verbal bible

Yesterday I purchased Jeff's MATH guide because I stuck with explanations of combinatorics and probability in MGMAT books (which are fantastic, but not that strong when it comes to above mentioned topics).
The reason I bought Jeff's MATH is because I want to follow his explanations on how to deal with ANY problem in 2 minutes or less. I dont believe in 'holy graal tricks' but I do believe in shortcuts or some methods which we did not study in school and which do save you A LOT of time while solving problems.

Is there any person who has used TOTAL GMAT VERBAL and can share his or her experience? It'll be highly appreciated!!!
