The Official Guide for GMAT Review, 12th Edition: Book Review
by Dana Jinaru on November 8th, 2009 123 comments
Posted in
written by Dana Jinaru. Dana is currently a finance student in Europe and also serves as a
.moderator for Beat The GMAT. On May 13, 2009 she scored a 770 on the GMAT
.Here is Danas analysis of the Official Guide for GMAT Review, 12th Edition
Overview
4 of 37
3/10/2015 11:41 AM
important piece of information that you need to know about the Official Guide (often
that it contains real, retired GMAT questions. As such, material released by the GMAC
s utterly priceless, since replicating the exact structure and feel of real GMAT questions is
.something that test prep companies have yet to accomplish
avel size, but this should be regarded as a plus, since it stems from the fact that the book
quite generous answer explanations (particularly in verbal). The problems are structured as
:follows
Quantitative and 52 Verbal in the Diagnostics Test 48
Problem Solving 230
Data Sufficiency 174
Reading Comprehension 139
Critical Reasoning 124
Sentence Correction 140
Pros
official questions, excellent for training your eye to spot commonly-tested patterns. This is
its worth investing some energy even in lower difficulty questions (unless pressed for time
n verbal: this is something that I have not seen mentioned often, but I believe is of crucial
explanations follow a similar style: an overview of the question and a solid analysis of ALL
ect one. Understanding why your answer is wrong is sometimes even more important than
getting it right
rder of difficulty, so if you have little time at hand and feel sufficiently confident about your
knowledge, you can just focus on the last questions of each section
ney: at just over 20 dollars on Amazon.com, getting over 900 retired questions is a bargain
Cons
de, its a workout list. Each section contains a review of the subject, but this is not nearly
e test, especially if your math skills are a bit rusty. You will need to rely on other resources
!for this
ons are generally high quality, quantitative explanations are not as great. Some test takers
often find themselves opting for a quicker or easier way to solve the given problems. I will
en than not, the OG explanations do not feature number picking. While this is sometimes a
faster way to solve a problem, its use is confusing for some GMAT hopefuls
a guide for the general test taker, so be prepared to see mostly easy and medium difficulty
re, youll need to supplement your prep with harder material (such as LSAT sets for critical
e though, do not neglect the easy stuff, since it gets you in the right mindset for the official
of questions. Besides, its usually the very easy questions that throw off advanced students
Bottom Line
5 of 37
3/10/2015 11:41 AM
, 12th Edition is a must have, no matter your level. Even though you will have to spend
on a good strategy book, getting the OG is crucial for your prep. As you go through various
ou will begin to notice the difference between an official question (clear-cut answers, great
uestion (structure is sometimes lacking, answers not as well defined). Because the feel of
ferent from that of test prep developed questions, I recommend saving/carefully reviewing
.some problems for the very last days before your test
e 12th edition was released in the sprig of 2009 and contains roughly 300 new questions as
orange-color 11th edition of the OG. As such, if you already have the older version, it is not
money on the newer one. If you do have a choice between the two, go for the most recent
.edition; if not, the 11th is just as good

und the books that you mention to be particularly useful, with one exception. I have never
h book, so I can't honestly give you an informed opinion about it. I did however go through
found it to be quite basic. If the Math book is anything like that, it's a pretty decent way to
he only downside is that the book that I reviewed does not really go deep enough on most
.topics
through is the Kaplan Math Workbook. I found the math refresher of this book to be quite
with your current material and still feel the need for more practice you could try investing in
.this one

DanaJ on December 9th, 2009 at 12:47 am

e for a math refresher that I've reviewed is the Kaplan Math Workbook. You can check out
s book [url=http://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/2009/11/23/kaplan-gmat-math-workbookot 100% satisfied of the way in which it's treated in this book, but it's the best I've seen so
that many DS questions, I recommend the Official Guide for the GMAT Quantitative Review

general guide, but it's very "general". Since you have a lot of time on hand, you should try
aplan Workbook for Math or the Manhattan GMAT series of 5 for quant. For verbal, use the

Hi Dana
y sample question in the 12th Edition of the Official GMAT Review. Each day, I worked on a
tempted every single one. After doing about 20-25 questions (esp. in SC/CR), I'd check my
answered incorrectly. At the end of a given section - say, SC - I'd spend time looking at the
.explanations associated with the questions I had answered incorrectly
e seemed clearer than others. For instance, I'd read one explanation and think "Ahhh, yes",
still have me shrugging, still wondering how the correct answer was definitively superior to
.the one I selected
g-winded. If you're still reading/awake, do you know if there is an "official" email (or snail)
ther clarification on specified explanations provided in the 12th Edition of the Official GMAT
e would actually respond with feedback? I want to feel like I understand *why* each of my
ct. I'm thinking that the only way to get further clarification on some of those explanations
r for an instructional course, such as Manhattan GMAT, but I hesitate to spend that money

ils of the type you ask. However, what you're describing is precisely what this forum is for!
good, debated answers to them! I strongly advise you to look up phrases - I'm pretty sure
read discussing the question you're having trouble with. In case you can't find what you're
e question and wait a day or two, since you'll most likely get answers from our members or

be the case, I have the feeling that you've gone through the OG without a proper concepts

for your response. Admittedly, I worked on these practice questions after having read only
85, 651-657 in the OG. These are merely the 'instructions' for the RC, CR, and SC sections,
king Strategies' for each section, but I suspect this is not what you had in mind. Above and

Hi Dana
e comments, they have been of an amazing guide so I though to post some of my queries,
...would be highly obliged if you could provide your valuable guidance to me
h, its been more than 6 years I had any level of interaction with mathematics. Due to some
y preparation with KAPLAN and as you are aware it has some tough question I got screwed
adly and was not able to solve any of the math questions and my confidence was shattered
I have developed the following plans, being a GMAT expert I would really appreciate if you
best for me... Im sure I will be able to score fair in Verbal but Math is like a night mare for
...me
Plan A: I use both the Kaplan workbooks (Math and verbal) along with the 3 Official guides
.Plan B: I use the The Manhattan GMAT Complete Prep Set along with the 3 official guides
: I start my preparation with the Kaplan workbooks and then move to the Princeton review
but frankly I don't wanna go in for Kaplan GMAT 2010 Premier Live Online it will shatter my
.confidence
.I would really request you to provide your guidance to me as im totally lost
Many thanks
DanaJ on February 2nd, 2010 at 1:55 pm

to say here: I have looked over some of the MGMAT guides for quant, but not all of them.
n the Book Reviews section... However, I've heard many say that they are one of the most
.complete resources out there
etty decent starter as well. I thought it had a nice mix of problems, good for "beginners" as
.well
her basic guide, but its focus on process of elimination and picking numbers make me a bit
.skeptical as to whether this book will actually help you with the concepts
nate plan C and go for either A or B depending on your time. The Kaplan book does a good
t's more condensed than the 5 guides. On the other hand, these guides are supposedly the
...most complete

amaven on February 3rd, 2010 at 2:49 am

,Hi Dana
.Thx for your quick reply
s of the gmat prep for a high score (730+), is it safe to say that one goes through 3 stages
.of gmat prep. (1) basics (2) concepts & foundation (3) practice
verbal for the 2nd stage, I see that you recommend Manhattan for SC and Powerscore for
oth these in detail, would you still recommend to go through the Kaplan Verbal book which
?you have also recommended well
rgds
DanaJ on February 3rd, 2010 at 2:56 am

ewed anything particularly good for RC except for the Kaplan Verbal Workbook. Of course,
.the CR bible does offer some tips for this section, but that's not its main focus
native speakers, in my experience. The Kaplan Book addresses this and also features quite
.generous amounts of practice
er you choose to buy it or not: if RC is not an issue or if you want to try the Manhattan RC
.guide (which I have not reviewed yet), then I guess you shouldn't

estion: I do not know if you should use the Kaplan Workbook or the Foundations of GMAT,
!because I have not had the chance to review the latter
uestion of whether to use the Kaplan Workbooks: I think it is more than enough to use the
without using these workbooks. While they are indeed useful, you will most definitely cover
.everything through the rest of the books

Hi DanaJ
or not answering a question or for a wrong answer? for example in negative marking if you
.answer correct for a question and next one question is incorrect you get zero
DanaJ on February 15th, 2010 at 4:40 am

arking: your score is adjusted to your performance over the course of the test. If you get a
uestion wil be slightly more difficult. If you get a question wrong, then the next one will be
ote that your score does not go down that much with only one wrong answer. They sort of
.reward you more than they penalize you for an incorrect answer

.is not the case and we must all face the same time constraint of 75 minutes per section
ws: you can score well, but only if you're not timed. One of the very first things to do when
timing yourself right away! At first, you should give yourself more time (i.e. 3 mins and 30
ead of the normal 2 mins), but gradually set the clock earlier to get to the normal time limit
.per question
ant to do is to consider alternate methods of attacking a question. It might not be the case

online GMAT prep ($89) that is being offered through the University here. I am a disabled
my BSBA in Finance: Banking and a minor in Economics this past weekend. Due to having 4
s must be used judiciously towards purchasing the books that will give me the most return
.on investment
g the Manhattan Set of 8 books, all three OGs, MG Test Simulation Book, the Official Guide
.Companion, and the Foundations on GMAT Math STrategy all for under $165
?I'm wondering if that would be the best investment I could make in your opinion DanaJ

umbers float around in my head and I can visualize many things. So I'm thinking I may just
.need a brush up/reminder on the math section, but I don't want to be overconfident
listed books are worth that money, or would there be a better recommendation you would
.make for that price range? I know that the OC Review is a must have

gh since they only contain practice and not a decent theoretical review. If you want to hit a

me... If you have three months or so, then go for the Manhattan GMAT Number Properties,
.Word Translations, Sentence Correction and the PowerScore CR Bible
onth or so, then you might want to opt for the Kaplan Math Workbook, which is a lot more
.condensed than other quant resources
epending on your weaknesses: if you're weak in math, you could buy the whole Manhattan

Hi Dana
ise regarding GMAT prep material. Recently, I decided to prepare for GMAT...gave my free
650...did this without any preparation whatsoever...Still the Maths review in GMATPrep was
next test (Princeton review)...and got a 700...I think the maths was too easy in this though
mal when it comes to sentence correction...as my comment structure would have made all
d with RC and CR...but would like some basic strategic guidance for these...In maths, I am
s but do get stuck in DS at times...Again, I am not sure if i should go for a generic guide or
...more in-depth one...Anywhich ways I do require some brushing up...and practice
t analysis skill is not very astute...Well, could you help me out...Oh yeah and I am working
ching would be out of the question. I am aiming (or hoping...not without a romantic touch,
.i say!) for 750
.Thanks in anticipation

dy at a pretty good level, investing in a general guide does not make too much sense. You
es are meant to help you lightly brush up on all topics, while in your specific case you need
.something hardcore to take you from an already comfortable level to the top

er resources that cover the theoretical part, because the OGs are not enough on that side.
your starting score: if you start out at 400, then getting to 650-700 in a month's time with

ation of things. Whichever one you choose though, you can't really go wrong... But I guess
.it depends on your personal preferences for study
ter review for MGMAT as a set comes from the fact that it seems more condensed than the

colleges for undergraduate and graduate. Thank you so much for all your help. Tina Carter

orrectly identified that you need more help. I think in you have a bit of time - three months
e if you bought the complete Manhattan GMAT set and the Official Guide, you should have
score. I can't say you'll get a 750 - it's really tough to evaluate. My opinion would be that if
e one in the GMAT Prep software) and your score is below 600, then it might prove difficult
own and might need a course/tutoring. I do believe it's possible to go from say 550 to 700
imagine that last stretch from 700 to 750 is a bit more difficult to go through without help
