Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - GMAT book, excellent condition
This book was in great condition, there were no markings on the inside at all!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - It's a good book, but I think a little too ambitious
While learning for the GMAT I didn't take a course and used two books: the Kaplan and GMAC ("GMAT review") books.

While the GMAT review book does not have too many full tests to offer (you can download 2 tests online, but that's only 2) the Kaplan book has about 6-7 (with the CD).
The problem is that the tests of Kaplan are not realistic to the real GMAT test. They are very ambitious (i.e. the level gets very hard) and the score I got was a lot lower than what I got on the GMAT. ... Read More

*The coaching style Kaplan adopts in offering advice on strategies is useful.Timing is always an issue so a good tip I would offer is apply the strategies ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - scores were all over the place
I aced my first practice test, then didn't do as well on the rest.I was studying tons, so my score should have gone up.I suppose it could have been operator error, but I think these practice exams are screwy.

Nevertheless, practicing on the computer did help me prepare for the format of the actual exam.
