 Great Book, Great Condition, and Fast Shipping! Thanks!! August 27, 2008
Awesome transaction. Good packing, fast shipping, and excellent condition. Exactly as described. THANKS!!
 ALOT of typos, but pretty good August 27, 2008
The reviews are good as long as you don't need to learn the math from scratch. They do need a better probability section. My main complaint is that it is FULL of typos. Its as if it were a rough draft. Literally, they are the type of errors that if anyone bothered to give the math section a cursory glance would have spotted them.
 Kaplan Gmat August 25, 2008
If you are interested in extra problems and some additional ideas on how to solve some of the problems on the GMAT this book will give that to you. I would prefer Kaplan's GMAT math review book over this one. If you are really in need of a math review you could look at the Ez-Solutions set of nine.
 made me more confused August 18, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The primary reason I bought this guide over the others was for the computer adaptive practice tests included on the cd-rom.
On my first practice GMAT, I found that a few of the explanations of the math problems used information not presented in the questions.
On my second practice GMAT, I found that it was recycling questions from the first practice exam. On the verbal section it gave me too many reading passages. On the math section I kept getting hard questions, depite a streak of several wrong answers.
I also found the editing in the math section to be very sloppy, and thus confusing to read.
Simulated CAT GMAT August 17, 2008
So what exactly is adaptive about Kaplan's version of the CAT GMAT? Kaplan gave me one impossibly hard math question after the next despite my pervious wrong answers. I have taken the GMAT CAT on MBA.com and did just fine - not the case with Kaplan version. On the mba.com version the questions were reasonable yet the Kaplan test seems to give one 800 level question after the next. I completely ran out of time trying to answer these over-complicated questions. Anyone else find this to the be the case?
Also I think Kaplan's examples of "good" analytical writing are terrible. They are full of assumptions and poor/undesirable grammar (e.g. contractions and excessive uses of semicolons).
