TwinnSplitter is almost a TestMagic guru.
Honestly, the only practice I got for stat stuff was 1) the questions in OG and Kaplan, and 2) the statistics questions posted on this site. Also, I had a lot of practice from my statistics class, so I didn't prepare for stats as much as most people.

To find the stat questions, just search for certain terms within the math forum. For example, if you want standard deviation questions, search the term "standard" and you should find a lot of them.


I don't have experience with the Manhattan critical reasoning and reading comprehension material, so I'm not sure of its quality...but from what I've heard about it, it's not good. Plus, in my opinion (although I'm sure there's others for whom this isn't true) the main way you get better at critical reasoning and reading comprehension is by practice. They're not like SC, where you have to memorize rules or anything, so just do the OG questions, read the explanations, and do LSAT questions if you really want to challenge yourself.

Finally, don't let the LSAT book make you feel as though you are "still average" at critical reasoning, since LSAT questions are far more difficult than GMAT questions. Same goes for the LSAT reading comprehension's.

Good luck!

Hello Twinn

Awesome score and one of the best and defintely the most comprehensive post! I was curious - how closely does the LSAT "reasoning" or solutions parallel the GMAT reasoning? On one of the posts, you had mentioned that the logical reasoning used in PR and Kaplan are slightly different from GMAC and this could potentially screw up one's performance in GMAT CRs. Wouldn't the same apply if one used LSAT as well?
Thanks

hi twinn

i am new to this forum infact i got to know about this yesterday from one of my friend and from yesterday i am on this forum trying to find different questions.
an hour ago i read everythinng about u,your gmat experience and the way you prepared. i mean thats awesome.its lot of help

i gave my gmat exam on 6 may and i ended up getting 500 which was shock for me.because i studied day and night .i expected my score atleast above 650.
i did OG 4 times,kaplan800 three times, i mean i did all the books so many times that i remembered their answers

Now my exam is in 4 august,this time i started my preparation 3 weaks before the exam bcoz i just had to revise. i feel i messed my last exam bcoz of nervousness. but now from this site i can see a lot of material but i feel i dont have time ,today its 22nd so 10 days more and i have to revise kaplan,kaplan 800 and so paper based gmat tests.

what i want to ask is that i am unable to improve sentence correction it always come out to be 50%, rest all is good, i m very comfortable with critical reasoning,reading comprehension,PS,DS. the book you mentioned, do u think i should start doing it .i mean do i have enough time. and please advice me that should i more concentrate on revising or practicing new questions from this forum.

please help me out as i m really confused
