Product Description
Number Properties (1 of the 7 books in Manhattan GMAT?s Preparation Guide series) provides a highly organized and structured approach to the variety of questions in this quantitative content area. Students are presented with a comprehensive analysis of the properties and rules of integers tested on the GMAT--everything from prime products to perfect squares. The book offers a unique balance between two competing emphases: test-taking strategies and in-depth content understanding. Practice problem-sets build specific foundational skills in each topic and include the most advanced content that many other prep books ignore. As the average GMAT score required to gain admission to top b-schools continues to rise, this guide provides test takers with the depth and volume of advanced material essential for succeeding on the GMAT?s computer adaptive format. Book also includes online access to 3 full-length Simulated Practice GMAT Exams at Manhattan GMAT?s website.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Good theory but no correlation with MGMAT CAT 2008-12-04
Comment: The book summarizes most of the GMAT needed theory involving number properties, including tyical trap-like questions. The excercises are straightforward, too. However, the problem I faced is that when taking the CAT exams (at the MGMAT website), the DS/PS test problems required three, four or five times longer to complete --even if you know how to solve them in advance-- compared to the problems in this book.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Really impressive and very neccessary 2008-11-14
Comment: GMAT has been getting more difficult over the years. If you have any doubt, take the GMAT Prep (just google it) and compare the level of difficulty with the Offical Guides. The difference is very substantial.
Unfortunately, most GMAT prep companies, includng MGMAT, have been behind he curve of the changes.
But you are in luck as this new MGMAT book succeeds where other books, includng the previous edition of MGMAT number properties book, have failed. This new edition provides a very comprehensive explanation of GMAT number properties (primes, odd and evens, postive and negative, consecutive intgers, exponents, roots etc) which the previous version was lacking. Most importantly, this book is far better at emulating the difficulty and types of questions of the current GMAT test.
Number properties is perhaps one of the most difficult components of GMAT Quant section. Although GMAT tests only high school math, do not mistake its quant section for an SAT. For example, how many prime factors (odd or even) does a perfect square of an integer have? Can you find the total number of factors (not just prime factors) of number 2000 in under 2 minutes? Even if you are good in math, you probably can't without the help of this book. And yes, GMAT does ask you such questions which you should answer in 2 minutes or less.
