• made me more confused
  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... more info

• Terrible Math Content
  Excessive is an understatement. After using this book for review I can safely say avoid at all costs for math content review. There are many omissions, = where - should be, p in place of [pi] randomly in questions and answers, faulty assumptions in the answers that were not provided in questions.
  I would rejoice for Kaplan when I made it through a single page turn without finding a SERIOUS error.
  Not only do they need a new editor, they need a content creator with better than 25% accuracy.

• GMAT Study Guide
  This guide is just as described, the information is extremely helpful in studying for the GMAT, in addition to other resources that comes from the CD-ROM.

• Better math editor needed
  There are excessive math errors in the book. Several times they use the same figure (ex. Triangle) with the exact same measures (congruent triangles) to show how the two figures are different. How can they be different when the 3 sides and the 3 angles are identical? One time they say find the "equation with and -5". Nothing between the two words.
  They tend to introduce new concepts in the practice problems and then don't explain them in the answer explanations.
  The english portion was OK.
