Hello everyone,

I'm not sure if I'm posting in correct tree; I'm almost done with my quant preparation, however, I'm don't have good question to practice. Currently I'm following Manhattan GMAT guides and solving Official GMAC books; I feel the level of the question in official book not very challenging. Also considering the fact that they provide only limited no. of questions on each topic I wanted to have better hands-on before I take some the practice exam. Can someone suggest me which are the books I can use to practice my skills(Please suggest books only with correct grammar and with GMAT standard).

PS:- I was using quant by Arun Sharma earlier but GMAT experts asked me not to work with this book.

I'm no expert, just trying to work on my skills. If I've made any mistakes please bear with me.

If you're finding the OG questions too easy, it might be time for an official practice test. You may already be scoring in the 99th percentile in quants, in which case searching for additional resources may be unnecessary.

A great place to find challenging questions is right here on BTG. If you want to focus on one topic at a time, you can use BTG's tagging feature to isolate one concept.
For example, here are all of the questions tagged as statistics questions: https://www.beatthegmat.com/forums/tags/ ... statistics

Cheers,

"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."
