Re: Best GMAT Study Guides

Manhattan GMAT books & tests are currently one of the best available in the market.
I found the combination of Grockit And Manhattan prep books worked best for you.

While preparing for GMAT you generally have two variations. One of them is the self guided and second is the guided courses. It wholly depends on the person which would suit best for him/her.

It is generally considered that the self guided strategy is better in the case employed professionals because you are able to plan out better for yourself.

However, with the guided courses would make sure that your preparation has the discipline.

If you are going for guided courses you should favor institutes which are focused on GMAT prep and not towards other exams like SAT/GRE/CAT because the exams are significantly different.

Regardless of the course pattern you follow, items necessary of a good prepartion include

1) While practicing, try to simulate the test environment as much as possible. Time Managment is the key skill on the GMAT.

2) The exam strategies mentioned in Manhattan/Kaplan have evolved over time and will help you score higher. for e.g RC solving tips, Sentence correction tips. And timing strategy.

3) Identify your strengths for the exam. Maintain an error log of the mistakes. And you should circle back on those items later.

4) Lastly, it is not about how many questions you practice for the GMAT, but understanding correct approach i.e. why the right answer is right, why the wrong answer is wrong.

5) When you buy one Manhattan Book, you would get 5 practice tests. you should use those efficiently with the test analyzer feature to help you understand your key areas of strength and weakness. And GmatPrep tests are essential obviously.

( hence i find the gmatXchange as a helpful forum to discuss gmat problems, because you see people discussing approaches to problems rather than replying bluntly answer is A, answer is B. While visiting a question on the forum you should try to answer, broadly envision the approach to reach the answer.)
