Hey everyone,
Knewton has received an early shipment of the 12th Edition of the GMAT Review (The Official Guide), so we wanted to share with you some early details about what you can find in the new book. More to come! (Update: Verbal Analysis here!)
Here is a first look at the number of new and repeated questions in the Math section of the OG:
TOTAL (MATH):
11th Edition: 404 questions
12th Edition: 404 questions
New questions in 12th Edition: 146 (36%)
Repeated questions in 12th Edition: 258 (64%)
PROBLEM SOLVING:
11th Edition: 249 questions
12th Edition: 230 questions
New questions in 12th Edition: 52 (23%)
Repeated questions in 12th Edition: 178 (77%)
Questions deleted from 11th Edition: 71 (29%)
DATA SUFFICIENCY:
11th Edition: 155 questions
12th Edition: 174 questions!
New questions in 12th Edition: 94 (54%)
Repeated questions in 12th Edition: 80 (46%)
Questions deleted from 11th Edition: 75 (48%)
As you can see, the total number of questions has not changed, but there are now 19 fewer Problem Solving questions and 19 more Data Sufficiency questions. We think this is great, since, in our experience, most students have more trouble with the DS section.
There are also many more new DS questions (94) than there are PS questions (52). Here is a complete list of the new questions in each section (question numbers in the 12th Edition).
Stay tuned for our analysis of the Verbal Section, coming soon. Let us know if you have specific questions we can look into!
