5.0 out of 5 stars
My favorite book,
By Lalla Agostino (Genova, GE Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Insider's Guide: GMAT CAT (Insider's Guides) (Paperback)
Nice book. I'm studying for the Gmat right now. I'm using Princeton, Kaplan and Petersons. I think the last one is the best. It gives a lot of useful tactics and a lot of exercises in all the sections. Princeton gives also a lot of tactics but it lacks of exercises. If you have to buy your first book to prepare the Gmat, buy Petersons.

Probably the most practical book on the GMAT,
By Amit Daga (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Insider's Guide: GMAT CAT (Insider's Guides) (Paperback)
This is easily one of the bset books on the GMAt that you can buy. It has an enormous number of excercises that you can do to improve your skills, in addition to very practical and valuable tips on how to approach the test. Most other books I have bought somehow only offer advice (dubious, at best) on how to approach the GMAT and always skip out on the number of practise excercises they offer. I have the Princeton review book, 'Cracking the GMAT', as well as some of the other off-the-shelf books, that I now intend to return to the bookstore.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Good for strategies, not for sample questions,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Insider's Guide to the GMAT CAT (Paperback)
This book offers great advice on tackling the various types of problems on the GMAT CAT. I found the strategies for the Reading Comprehension questions especially useful. However, I found the sample Data Sufficiency questions far too difficult, especially in light of how much time Weber recommends you allow yourself for each problem set. For example, I did a sample set of his problems and didn't do very well at all. Yet if I did the same number of Data Sufficiency questions from the ETS 'Official' GMAT review book under the same time limit as I allowed myself for Weber's problems, I did substantially better (50% correct vs. 90% correct). So I wouldn't get discouraged by Weber's Data Sufficiency problems. Of course, if you find his questions easy, then you should rock that section of the exam. Good luck!
