Customer Reviews

seems to be the best test prep material around

i never really read the book but the cd-rom was a very good compilation. the maths section was a little easy and their lessons were very basic but the reading comprehension and the critical reasoning sections were very helpful.the sentence correction section could have been more difficult though.Finally the tests were more difficult than they usually are in the gmat but they could have included a few more tests in the cd-rom format.Overall it is a software worth recommending to anyone sitting for the gmat,certainly one of the best, if not the best testprep material around.

Solid Test Prep

The best thing about Kaplan's materials is that they are tougher than the real thing. Rather than getting a false sense of security entering the test, scoring low on the Kaplan tests will make you want to study harder to prepare for the real thing. We wouldn't recommend using just the Kaplan materials. Pick up the Official Guide to the GMAT to augment your studying. However, buying this book will put you on the right track to a stellar GMAT score.

Worth Every Penny!

I would recommend this book to anyone. I recently took the GMAT CAT and scored 30 points higher on the actual test than I had been scoring on the practice tests! The book includes a CD ROM loaded with tips and information as well as GMAT sample tests. I am very confident that with the KAPLAN book my score was tremendously improved.

GMAT in the rush, 3 days to prepare: Kaplan's book ->740/800

I had to take the GMAT to apply for a business school, but only 3 days to prepare it. I am not even a native speaker. I read the book, and did the problems. Contrary to other CDs, the tests on this CD are even a little bit harder than during the real GMAT CAT. My advice is: use everything they say, this is the optimal strategy. If I did it, you can do it too. I am sure you could even do better, if you take the time to practice the way they say. -Frederic-

Good Book, but **Great CD**

The Kaplan book is the best test prep book I have seen. It got a really good in deep analysis of how the GMAT CAT is scored. But the best part is the CD-ROM. It got a quick test and it points out which areas do you have to improve. I haven't seen the GMAT CAT, but the tests really look like the ones in the GMAT Bulletin. Also it is full of recomendations about getting into grad B-school. Finally the multimedia elements are just superb. Good book, great CD.
