---------

I have the full set of Veritas Prep books (16 books), plus the three Official GMAT books (Review - 11th Edition, Quantitative, Verbal).

There are no markings in any of the books. Each of the Veritas Prep books have quizes, drills, homework problems and/or challenge problems.

They were purchased as part of an online course. The online course cannot be resold and is not included. However, the course was an exact presentation of the materials in the Veritas Prep books -- they were great!

I will throw in the erase board and pen.

Asking $200 for the set. PayPal only. (Shipping within the US included.)

yea... I'm just pretty anti-eBay. Will check it out though.

How good would you say the books are compared to others? Like MGMAT? I'm debating on taking either the MGMAT or Veritas class and thinking that before taking one I'd do the others books as practice.

I only did the Veritas class, so it is hard to compare... I thought the taped online class was pretty good (and fit my requirements - which was to be pre-taped and available on-demand). Looking back, however, I would have spent more time with the official books doing pratice problems and making sure my fundamentals were strong. I probably spent a little too much time on Challenge problems and not the Quant basics.

I sat in on one MGMAT class that was online but live and it was pretty good too. If you can participate live and pace yourself, that's better than doing all your classes and study in 20-30 days (like me!).

5 Star (563 Reviews)

"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."
