    Hey All,

    Im wondering if any of my fellow ninja’s know of the best GMAT prep courses. Ive heard Manhattan GMAT is good. Anyone have any input on this? Im willing to pay more for a really good prep course, as i need to get my score up significantly to get into any M7 or top 10 B school. Thanks guys!

    I used the full set of Manhattan gmat books- there are 10. They go with the official guide, so you will have to buy that, also. I got through most of them, but I skipped the one on critical reasoning because I was good at that anyway and it was just confusing me. I ran out of time and didn't complete the grammar book, but I could have used to. If you are scoring very low, not sure the cutoff on how low, they also have 2 precursor books called fundamentals I believe. You really need study materials for the GMAT, because you have to know all of the tricks to get the answers correct, within the time limit. This is especially important for math. It is a whole different language and style than regular math- mostly due to the fact that you have no calculator. From my first practice exam to my real exam I raised my score about 60 points I believe.
