The Official Guide for GMAT Review, 11th Edition
In addition to taking one of our test preparation
courses, obtaining a copy of the Official Guide for GMAT Review,
11th edition, is by far the next best step to preparing for the
GMAT. This is the only study guide developed by the test creators,
and includes real GMAT questions with thoroughly written answers.
In the 11th Edition Official Guide for GMAT Review, you will find
a number of new sections added including: a diagnostic section to
help you decide where to focus your test-prep efforts; 800 questions
organized by the level of difficulty; a comprehensive math review;
and numerous Analytical Writing Assessment topics.
Some of the questions found in commercially-available GMAT practice
books are just not comparable. Many of these practice books, found
in virtually every bookstore, have mistakes and address topics that
are unrelated to what you will see on the actual exam. These commercially-available
practice books contain many typos, some of the answers are transposed
or just plain wrong, and much of the now-popular “underground”
internet material is loaded with mistakes. None of these problems
exist with the Official Guide for GMAT Review, 11th Edition. Thus
every serious GMAT candidate should own a copy.
Luckily, students enrolled in one of our 48-hour classes will receive
this book (a $50.00 value) at no additional charge. Since this book
is rarely found in bookstores and ordering it individually from
Educational Testing Services (ETS) is both expensive and time-consuming,
students enrolled in our 30-hour classes may purchase copies of
the 11th edition guide at the course itself.
Please Note:
1. All GMAT seminars take place
6:00pm - 10:00pm Friday, 9:00am - 6:00pm Saturday, 9:00am - 6:00pm
Sunday and 6:00pm -10:00pm Thursday.
2. The Thursday evening classes are optional
sessions, free for all registered students, where a full-length practice
GMAT is administered with actual testing conditions carefully reproduced.
These sessions provide students an excellent opportunity to practice the techniques
learned during the seminar.
3. Refund and Withdrawal Policy:
i) We will refund your full tuition if you withdraw from the seminar at least two weeks in advance.
ii) We will refund your full tuition if the seminar for which you want to register is full (we will place your name on a waiting list).
iii) We will retain the $95 deposit if you withdraw from the seminar less than two weeks in advance.
4. Course dates & locations are subject to change. Please be advised that seminars must obtain a minimum enrolment in order to proceed.
