The most recent versions are the Fourth Edition. I am guessing you referring to the problem sets in the guides. They refere to the 12th edition of the official guide. and as far as the verbal and quant guides go, they refer to both. I have both the first and the sencond editions of the quant and verbal, i suggest going with the 2nd editions.

Also, I did find that one of the fourth edition guides had a misprint referencing questions in the 12th edition of the Official Guide but was actually referencing the 11th edition. Most of the guides however reference the 12th edition correctly.

hi --

if you indeed have the most recent guides, you should see listings that look like this:
Verbal Review: 60, 81, 82, 84, 93, 97, 99, 100, 108
OR 2nd Ed.: 55, 77, 78, 86, 91, 94, 95, 106, 112


note that the ones labeled "verbal review" correspond to the first edition, and the ones labeled "2nd ed" correspond to the second edition.
same goes for the quant review.

the two most recent editions both use the 12th edition of the main OG book. it should say "12th edition" on all of the lists.
