The Official Guide for GMAT Review, 10th Edition


Publisher: Graduate Management Admission
Pages:, Publication Date: 2003-01
PDF, 15.3 M.B.

There's something to be said for the comfort of working with the "official" book. The review sections are dry and offer nothing in the way of helpful strategy, but the skills you need are there (for tips and tricks, Princeton Review might be the best). My assessment of this resource is that the questions tend to all be in the middle range of difficulty.

After a lot of studying, these questions all seemed average and I wanted something more challenging so that I would be ready to do battle with the real test.

For that I turned to the Kaplan 800 guide. I felt I had to stray outside this book after awhile because it was dulling my sense of difficulty. It's a good idea to do as much of this as you can - but I recommend paying attention to how you're doing and eventually leaving this book behind for deeper waters when you start to get bored.

My recommendation: start with Princeton Review (fun and easy with good tips, but not hardcore enough). Then do any specialized "workout" books you need (I got math workout books from Princeton Review and GMAC).

Get this book and get into the dry math review and practice questions. Buy the Barron's book if you really have nothing better to do than waste your time and money (this wasn't totally useless, but mostly so).

Then go nuts with Kaplan and scare yourself to death with their overly difficult practice tests - you'll score lower on those by 200 points than on the real thing, if you're like me. Then take the test - the light on the other side of the exam awaits you!

There is no way you'll be able to memorize all the essays in this book so if that's what you're looking for, forget it. If, however, you are looking for tips on how to prepare for the essay portion of the GRE,

common themes you'll find, and you want to review well thought out essays for every possible essay topic (just to get ideas and to get your creative juices flowing),

this is the book for you. I thoroughly enjoyed using it as a study guide and found myself well prepared when I actually sat down to complete this portion of the GRE. As I wrote, so many ideas came to me, many of which were touched on in the book. My score was a 6.0!

Supposed to be instucting us toward "flawless" GRE performance??? How can they charge that much for something with an inexcusable number of errors? I printed the corrections sheet from their website which covered only a few of the many errors in the book.

In the section on "tricks" to doing GRE math problems, I found ways to solve the the practice problems that were missed in the answers section! (And I didn't do all that well on the math part of the test.) What does this tell us about the level of the people writing the answers?! Sorry, but it's just annoying! These people are making the big bucks off all of us!
