Request on information - more material

Hi.

Is there any source where I can get the topic wise questions? When I try taking the practice tests, then I learn some rules, but unfortunately there are no more questions that I can practice the same rules on.

I was hoping if there is any source I can practice questions based on a specific topic.

I don't know what material you're using already. In our strategy guides, we index every Official Guide (OG) problem - so, for example, all of the OG problems that test you on inequalities are listed, by question number, in the Equations, Inequalities, & VICs strategy guide. Each chapter also contains additional problems that test you on the concepts in that chapter (typically 10 to 20 problems per chapter), and each guide also has an associated online question bank of 25 additional problems.

There are 8 strategy guides total and the latest versions collectively cover all of the questions in the latest three OG books (OG 12th edition, Verbal Review 2nd edition, Quant Review 2nd edition).

[There are around 1500 problems total in those three OG books so, if you bought all 8 strategy guides, you would get problem sets covering every single problem in OG. You could also buy just the books you want and get those specific problem sets. And, of course, you'd actually have to have the OG books themselves in order to get the problem sets.]

Remember that, while it is important when starting out to study topic by topic, after a while, you will need to start studying mixed sets of problems. The real test doesn't group together problems, and you will have to figure out what type of problem pops up on the screen next, so don't forget to develop that skill as well!

Hi Stacey,

I have all eight mgmat guides. They are excellent. While the questions are broken down topic wise at the end of every chapter in the quant books, the sentence correction book does not have it for the Verbal Review.

Any idea where I can get it? Do you have it posted on this website?

Thank you

Huh. That's odd. I'm looking at my book right now and the Verbal Review problem sets are in mine. What version of the book do you have?

Or, wait, here's a thought. In the quant guides, the problem sets are listed all together at the end of the book. In the SC guide, the problem sets are listed at the end of each chapter. Maybe you're just looking in the wrong place? Look at the end of each chapter, if you haven't already.

Otherwise, contact the office (800.576.GMAT or studentservices@manhattangmat.com) and they'll help you out!
