Verbal Guidance for me????

by yumi2012 » Mon Sep 30, 2013 10:41 am
I'm pondering between these two books
Foundations of GMAT Verbal - MGMAT
Verbal Foundation - Kaplan

Which one do you recommend for a non- native English speaker who struggles with verbal sections?

Thanks in advance !

Dear Yumi,
Here are some reviews that might help you. :-)
The MGMAT books are superb!!

We don't have a review specifically of this Kaplan book, but here are a few reviews of some other Kaplan books --- I believe there's a lot of overlap between these the verbal sections of these two books and their Verbal Foundations book:

Thanks for this quick response. Where do I find "Manhattan GMAT 6-online tests" by the way?

Dear Yumi,
When you buy any of the MGMAT lesson books, there will be a website URL on the inside back cover, as well as a code covered by stuff you have to scratch off. When you scratch it off to reveal the code, the code will give you access to the website.
Does this make sense?
Mike :-)
