Manhattan GMAT CR 4th Edition versus 5th Edition

[abhitechie]

How is the 5th edition different from the 4th edition ?
Can you please elaborate (as you are the author :)) on how this book is different from other GMAT CR books in the market ?
I am pleased with MGMAT Advanced Quant and tempted to buy this one as well.

Let's see. Lots of new stuff!

- New process for evaluating all CR problems
- New organization of the question types
- Better explanation of how to identify each question type and what to do for each
- A number of new questions and exercises (though still a lot of the same questions as in the old book - but even if I kept the same question, I rewrote the explanation)

Basically, the whole CR framework is new. If you want to get a taste, you can go onto our blog and start looking through my old articles starting in October or November of last year. I wrote a lot of CR articles as I was writing the book, and the articles reflect our research and new thinking about CR.

Hi Stacey,

As former MGMAT students, do we have to purchase the new edition? Or can we have free access through to e-book version through the student center?

Thanks

Sunil

That's a really good question - I'm not sure. I'll ask Student Services to come on here and answer!
