In your opinion, what is the best free GMAT resource? I know forums are great at discussing topics, but as far as providing study content and direction, what is the best free resource?

I personally think the best resource is the GMATPrep software. Without this most of the test takers would not have the opportunity to take a GMAT practice test which is identical to the real test before the real test!!

Ofcourse the other resources are also great!! :)

GMATPrep for sure. There's no way anyone should prep without it!

I just had a look at the GMATFix Live Syllabus, and it looks very thorough (16 classes). when I was prepping for my test it wasn't available. I don't think they can sustain giving away this much without losing money, so the free classes probably won't be free forever.

Where are the ManhattanGMAT flashcards? I'm sure they're also good.

1000SC 1000CR 1000RC doesn't really impress me. I wouldn't use it.

Of the free 3rd-party tests, I don't know which is best, but I do think that MGMAT test is better than Princeton Review. Though MGMAT is unrealistic at the highest levels, the test gives you a god breakdown by topic for review.


1) Free GMATPrep (www.mba.com)
2) Free GMATFix Live (www.gmatfix.com)
3) Free 3rd-Party test (MGMAT www.manhattangmat.com)

Thanks for your message. I went to gmatfix to check out the free GMATFix Live classes. For some days, many spots have already been taken. I registered for the "SC Verbs" class scheduled for this coming Monday. Will let you guys know how it goes.

GMATPrep is of course the best free resource
