Manhattan GMAT Prep

MG Prep, Inc., 2007

Very good for the target audience
"Very good for the target audience" - I think this sums it all. If you are someone who has not done active maths for some time now, and therefore does not remember the concepts involved very well, this is the book for you. This I will say holds true for most of the books of the Manhattan Quant series. The Manhattan Quant series books cover the concepts only to the degree that gets asked in the ...

Fantastic!!!!
I highly recommend this book for anyone who has not done the type of math in the gmat for quite a while. Also, if you would like to get some tips on translating the gmat word problems better, and quicker. Time is of the essance with the gmat. =) I found this book to be an excellent aid for beginners, and the advanced. You need to get the official gmat book as well to get official questions. ...

Great help for the GMAT
Reading Comprehension is one of the most difficult areas to improve in a short time for the GMAT. If you are not getting good scores in this section and if you've not been a life long reader, then it is not easy to improve your score - it will take hard work and a lot of practice, and probably the Manhattan GMAT RC guide. This book is definitely one of the best out there for this section. The ...

MG Prep, Inc., 2007

A good refresher
Quantitative section on the GMAT can be a little tricky, even if you were pretty good at Math in your high school or in college. Why? Because the skills tested on the GMAT are different than the one you acquired in high school or college. For example, the data sufficiency section is not a straightforward problem solving section and requires some targeted practice before you take the real ...

MG Prep, Inc., 2005

Lifesaving book!!!
I completely disagree with the other review, and if you do your research you will certainly come to the conclusion that ManhattanGMAT's books are a fantastic resource for the GMAT. While they are not necessarily a substitute for the class, they cover the material in great detail and include access to various practice problems online and 6 computer adaptive exams. You will most definitely need ...

A good refresher
Quantitative section on the GMAT can be a little tricky, even if you were pretty good at Math in your high school or in college. Why? Because the skills tested on the GMAT are different than the one you acquired in high school or college. I am an engineering major and I took multiple advanced Math courses in my college and yet, I benefited from the Manhattan Review quantitative books. Of ...

Manhattan GMAT has reversed engineered OG
I have bought all the MGMAT strategy guides and plan to write a review as I finish them. I have completed Number properties guide and I have found it very useful. Before starting with MGMAT I had completed Priceton Review Cracking the GMAT and Kaplan Comprehensive GMAT. I would say that the above 2 books use concepts straight out of college textbooks. However MGMAT explains these concepts as ...

worth the money
Really good book. all the concepts clearly explained. I think its better to read this book once you have covered at least one other book like princeton, kaplan etc. (the gmat guides).

Equations, Inequalities, & VIC's GMAT Preparation Guide (Manhattan Gmat Prep)

Manhattan GMAT Prep

MG Prep, Inc., 2005

Simply the best out there
This stands true for all 7 Manhattan GMAT books. Are they a bit more expensive? Yes. Is it worth it? Absolutely. I've had both Kaplan and Princeton books, CDS, other books, and I always felt they fell short. Other books focus on teaching you relatively complex strategies to save time, but ignore the fundamentals. Problem is, you can show me a million shortcuts, but if I don't remember how to ...

Critical Reasoning & Reading Comprehension GMAT Preparation Guide (Manhattan Gmat Prep)

Manhattan GMAT Prep

MG Prep, Inc., 2005

Not practical enough
While I appreciate the clearly outlined strategies for Critical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension, in the end they just weren't practical enough. For example, when I tried making notes of the Critical Reasoning questions, it took way too long. I was much better off reading the argument once and then eliminating as many irrelevant answer choices as possible. When I narrowed my choices down to 2 ...
