Average Rating:
Rating: - Great for practice questions, but not to indicate ability.
If you are totally confident in your abilities, then this book is probably extraneous if you already own the official guide.But if you are not, this book can be a handy supplement to provide some useful test-taking strategies (particularly for data sufficiency) and as a source of extra practice questions.
The CD-ROM and online content is useful in providing an additional source of practice tests and quizzes.The real benefit of these is that they are all timed.I found the practice ... Read More
