Unfortunately, I didn't get 800 on the exam, but got close (730). Once you get to this stage, you really need lots of practice, which this book doesn't have. However, the quality of tips to save you time and to get the crux of questions is good. That's why it gets 3 stars rather than lower. I'd recommend this book for someone who has a large questions bank, and who needs some abstract guidance while working through them. But it's still worthwhile to pick up to get some pointers going into the test.

What I liked most about this book was that you had 2-4 questions to answer and then it took you step-by-step on how to find the right answer to each of those questions. So instead of having to take full tests or full sections before checking answers, I could understand where I went wrong almost immediately.

I have to read this book if I want to get into Graduate School! Wish me good luck! I take my test on March 26th. I have to score at least a 480!

Yes, I did just read this book. I was helping Paul study for the GMAT. Turns out we didn't have to take it after all. However, I am much smarter now!!

I liked that they outlined common additions to the normal questions the GMAT asks. Hopefully this helped me get a better score, but I won't know until Saturday.

Good starting book for advanced. You do should work on real exams at the end close to the exam. Bests, Cesar
