Hi,I would like to know how can I improve my Sentence Correction skills? Is there any good book or website that I can use? By the way, I have already used the Manhattan GMAT Prep for SC 2007 Edition (but I already know all of the grammar rules!!! So, this book has not helped me a lot!). So, you tell me what to do? Thanks

If you know anything about http://www.sherwoodtest.com/gmat.html , please let me know your opinion. Thank you

I just retake GMAT and I scored: 400(Q:30, V:16). First time (a month ago), I scored 380 (Q:27, V:16). Here what I did: I purchased Manhattan Book for SC, RC and CR and I took six GMAT CAT from MGMAT and I got 460, 520,520, 480, 510, 530. In ALL of them I got higher points in quantitative than verbal and I also took GMATPrep and scored: 500, 520. I noticed that the level of difficulty of verbal questions are similar to Kaplan (I did not use Kaplan at all, but I think I should have use it.) Thus, please let me know what can I do to get improve my score (I am thinking to get private tutor). I am planning to retake the test on September 2007. My goal is to get around 600!

Hello Everyone, I am thinking to buy a complete set: 8 Manhattan GMAT Preparation Guides 2007 Ed.. In this forum, for most people the Manhattan Sentence Correction was good, but I never read that someone talk about other Manhattan books. Thus, please help me and let me know which other Manhattan books you have found helpful. Please keep in mind that I have already bought the Princeton review ,Kaplan (did not find them helpful to me), and OG 11. Moreover, I already took GMAT two times and my highest score was 460 and my target score is around 580. Since I am very weak in critical reasoning and reading comprehensive, my strategy is to get higher point in the areas that I already doing okay such as PS, DS, and SC. Please Help me. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am planning to take a GMAT online course (beside The Princeton Review and kaplan because the were not helpful to me!) Please let know know which one is worth the money. Thank you!

2^5 + 2^5 +3^5 + 3^5 + 3^5 =? 2^5 (1 + 1) + 3^5 (1+ 1+ 1) 2^5 (2) + 3^5 (3) ((2)^5+1) + ((3)^5+1) (2)^6 + (3)^6 Thus: C is the correct answer!
