Summary: An excellent book for practicing the math problems 2002-09-15
Comment: This book is a great investment if you want to practice the math problems for GMAT. Solving the problems in this book gets you up to speed on GMAT math. Since its getting more and more difficult to get into good schools for MBA, every single point counts. Why miss out on even one? So practice, practice and practice.

Summary: This book is very good, but do not SOLELY rely on it. 2002-03-08
Comment: I took the GMAT exam for the second time yesterday, and I can tell you that this book was very helpful. When used correctly, this book can help you increase your quant score - it is the most efficient study guide to review math concepts. (Strangely enough, I saw a question on my GMAT that was the exact same as a question in this book!!) If you have not had any GMAT prep, I would recommend the Kaplan GMAT book AND CD ROM, plus the ETS GMAT questions book and CD software. These are your core study tools. The Princeton Review CD ROM is good for more CAT exam practice. Kaplan material is usually a bit tougher than the actual GMAT, and the ETS CD ROM should be used to get familiar with what you'll see on test day and to boost your confidence.I hate to say this, but there is an element of luck involved in the kinds of quant questions you get. My first GMAT exam was a disaster because I felt I was 'ambushed' by the math section, but in my test yesterday I felt great about the quant section - and I think this book played a role. Don't let the GMAT intimidate you. You will need to be in the right frame of mind, and doing all the practice tests and improving your weak areas will lead you to success!

Summary: Not A Good math Prep for the GMAT 2001-03-13
Comment: I just took the GMAT yesterday (3/12/2001). I was stupid for using this book as my only math prep. What I saw on the GMAT was much different form what's in this book. This book covers basic atrihmetic, algebra, word problems, and geometry. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY MATH THAT'S GOING TO BE ON THE TEST!!! This book didn't cover probabilty and statistics, which is all over the GMAT once you get to the hard questions. The problems in this book are very, very simple compared to the actual GMAT math problems. No advance concepts are covered in this book. Forget this book and get the GMAT 2000-2001 edition by Kaplan. It covers simple and advanced math topics and it even comes with 4 full-length practice GMAT CATs. The Princeton Review gives you GMAT test taking tips and triks. While preparing for the GMAT, I suggest that you use the Kaplan, Princeton Review, and the Offical Guide together. The sad truth is that the level of difficulty in these books don't match the level of difficulty on the GMAT. Therefore, they tend to give give you a false sense that you are prepared. The GMAT is not easy. BE VERY PREPARED!! Also, when and if you take the sample tests ETS provides with their powerprep software, the score you get on that will be vey close to the score you will get on the actual test, so don't take it for granted.

Summary: Excellent for people with rusty math skills 2000-03-23
Comment: A really useful guide, if, like me, you have not done math for a while. Covers useful material in a good level of depth. Also an excellent source of practice questions. In my opinion, a great deal better than the Princeton Math Workout, which spent too much time on ways to "crack" the test rather than actually teaching you how to do the math. The Kaplan Guide is much more focussed on the latter.
