Kaplan GMAT 800, 2005-2006 (Kaplan Gmat 800) review:4 stars (Satisfactory) - Good for students who need hard questions to get above 700 on Gmat.

Tan5 stars (Good book, Excellent verbal practice) - I am finally over with the GMAT... what a nice feeling :)
I decided to try and save some money and study on my own using all the books I could find. I used:

* Kaplan 800 (2005-2006)
* Kaplan 2005
* Princeton 2003
* The Official Guide
* Barron 2000
* Kaplan and Princeton CD-ROMs.

I found the GMAT 800 very useful, especially in the verbal section. While doing the drills I was getting about half of them wrong, which allowed me to improve by learning from my mistakes. The Reading Comprehension passages are simply the ugliest one can imagine - Very good preparation for the exam.
The critical reasoning questions also had some nice edges to them and confusing answers to choose from (Reading the explanations removed the confusion and helped me understand the reasoning behind the answers)
Oh, and the Sentence Correction... These were a joy! Some very tough ones in that section and they touch all the types of questions that can be found in the exam.

The math section was o.k. It has the toughest math questions from all the books, but still not close enough to the real exam, and here I really felt there were too few question.

If had to choose two books to study with, I would choose this book and the official guide (and the CD-ROMs)

Overall this is an excellent book, either as a first book to introduce the different types of questions, or as a review of hard questions a week before the exam.

5 stars (GMAT vs GRE) - I aced the GRE, after studying 3 months while taking 12 credits in undergrad.
I'm now addicted to standardized tests because I have found a system that works.
I've taken a non academic Professional Liscense exam and ACED it using a system
that I've found. I took those two standardized tests within six months, and now
i'm going to be ready to take another within 3 months. THAT'S 3 standardized
tests within NINE Months. (...)

IT's ALL ABOUT THE DIFFERENT BOOKS.

Barron's
Thomas Petersons
Princeton Review
Kaplan

IT"S ALL ABOUT USING 3 MONTHS per TEST.

It's called DIVERSIFICATION. If you're interested, or wondering how it works..
simply buy all the GMAT or GRE books you can..

FIRST study the drills
SECOND study the practice sets
THIRD study the Sample Tests

But switch up between math & verbal alot, and take great notes.

I'm telling you THIS WORKS.

FEW know about this system, and it's hard to find out other details.
