There are a huge number of misspellings and math errors in this product. I was completely and totally disappointed in this. 9*6 = 45. I don' this so but this program had this as part of a solution to a problem. It asks data sufficiency questions and does not tell you it is a data sufficiency question. There are other questions where you have to look at the solution just to figure out what they were asking. Some of the questions that they count as GMAT questions are at a 5th grade level and if you can't answer these without doing a math review don't bother with the GMAT. In addition, the program is excruciatingly slow. Do not buy this product. Get something from Kaplan or Princeton Review.

I purchased this software about 2 years ago from Amazon. I just installed it today, to start studying for the GMAT which I'll be taking in a few weeks. Well guess what? This software is full of errors. I can't believe that a tool used to prepare for an exam could possibly have been released with so many errors. I have asked Amazon.com for a refund, and if they don't provide one, I will contact the author for a full refund. This product is ridiculous. Don't waste your money on it.

Please also note that the 3 reviews written below all on February 2, 2003 were obviously written by the author or by someone on behalf of the author.

This CD is terrible. First, the questions are inaccurately written (eg. it will say 90% when it should say 80%, as is made apparent by the solution). Second, the solutions are inaccurate. Sometimes the answer choices are not displayed, sometimes the answer given is incorrect (eg. it will add 2 numbers incorrectly to get to the final "answer"). Finally the interface and tool set provided are extremely primitive. It can basically only display questions and answers. It does nothing to help you identify which areas you need to work on more than others, and does little to help track your progress. Finally, the hints and "study guide" are not very helpful. ...

This program has probably too much content for the average. If you have the time, I suppose it is allright. I would recommend it as a reference. I tired pretty easy with all the reading (not to mention bored). But I think the depth is a little too much.

Taylor's Learning SAT/GMAT Professional Kit has helped me to master math subjects through practicing and solving problems.
Through solutions and hints I saved a lot of time and I could improve my knowledge.

Why didn't anybody develop such a CD before? Now this is what I was looking for!
It's really easy to use, printable, includes a huge amount of problems and solutions, covers everything in math, I can get the solutions in a second... just what I needed!

Great product! I never thought I can use anything like this to learn, but it does work! I am happy to have it.
