- Give it a wide berth.
The problems are too difficult and full of typos. I really had higher expectations from Kaplan.Its great if you want to learn additional math skills but I only wanted to learn math for the Gmat.
However, on the slightly positive side, the tests are great for learning the pacing and format that the test will be in and knowing that is half the battle. Whatever you do, though, don't trust the scores. The rumors that the Kaplan tests will score you 100-150 points lower than the actual exam ... Read More

- Typos, typos, and MORE F-ING TYPOS!!
I'm nearing the end of the math portion of the book and I've counted at least 5 times where the book's math was wrong.Errors were in the reviews, the problems, and the explanations of the answers.I would let grammatical and spelling errors slide, but when there's a 4 instead of a 2 or a plus instead of a minus or a square-root of 2 where there should be a square root of 3, I'm going to get pissed off.Don't buy this book if you're not well-versed in math.
Rating: - Worst Buy
Mistakes everywhere in the Math Review!Very difficult to study when the answers and questions have typos. Kaplan did you actually proof read this before you published it?For a company that is supposed to be so great what a disappointed.I will never buy Kaplan, nor suggest that anyone ever buy Kaplan.

As has been said in countless reviews here, this book is diabolical. It is littered with mistakes, and the explanations are woeful. Many of the answers just say that a specific choice is "wrong", without an actual explanation. While that is frustrating, it's not in the same league as the basic printing errors.
If any test taker made as many mistakes on their test as they do in this prep book, they'd be looking at a 400!
And of course, when you raise this with Kaplan "Customer ... Read More
