Retake GMAT ,R u kidding...If I were you I would be in Cloud 9,10 and 11 (But then it is just my opinion)


I am finding it really hard to believe it is possible only using the OGs

I want to know which manhattan SC book you used ,The latest one or the older version.

For SC did you refer with OG 10 or 11

Best of luck for your Apps

Thanks

Thanks for all the good wishes guys ..

Krishna, I used Manhattan SC 3rd edition. This was written for OG 11. Now I think they have a 4th edition written for OG 12. One difference is the list of questions at the end for each topic. These will refer to OG 12 in the latest edition. I have not read the latest Manhattan SC so not sure of any other differences. Also note that the GMAC Verbal supplement is equally important. And, OG 12 has a lot of bold faced critical reasoning questions which appear frequently on the real exam.

For my SC preparation, I read a chapter in Manhattan SC, and then did the exercises and questions from OG (and not the verbal supplement) corresponding to that topic. After finsihing all the chapters, I did OG again, trying to find errors in ALL the answer choices. Reading the answer explanations in OG helps a lot. After this, I did the verbal supplement, timing myself. Once this was done, I did a few questions every day until the test. The idea is to get to a point where as you read a question, you will identify similar questions you have done in the past, and look for similar answers ..

Hope this helps. All the best for your test ..
