Unfortunately, I had to take the GMAT a second time because my score was not high enough for my grad school. The first book I had used was by Kaplan, the advisor had recommended it. I thought I was well prepared and was not. Then my friend told my about this book and I did everything in it. I took the test two days ago and my score went up 130 points! I recommend this book to everyone! Get this one the first time so you don't have to take the test again!

I found the book very helpful in my studies. I did not like that the level of difficulty was not indicated on the text problems. I would like to have known the area where I missed problems or the type of problems missed on the dvd exams. Overall, it had more than enough sample tests.
Online CD tests are excellent

I had already given the GMAT TestPrep online test and was looking for some more tests. Hence I picked up this book and gave the 3 online tests which come on the included CDi. I found these tests excellent .My final score on Gmat matched the score that I got on the last Arco CD test . (620,730,690) The only reason I did not give 5 is because I did not use the theory of Arco much.For reading/revision of theory and simple strategy, I found that Princeton review book is excellent.And for practice questions , official Gmat book is a good resource. -S PS: I posted this review by mistake to 2006.I don't know the difference between the two but the CD tests I gave were for 2007 edition.
