Summary: Only if you need additional practice for the verbal sections
Comment: This book is very helpful as long as what you're needing is additional practice to build up your performance and confidence for the verbal sections of the GMAT (note that it covers the Analytical Writing section as well, however it does not do so as well as it covers the other verbal sections). It takes you through each of the three types of verbal sections (Reading Comprehension, Critical Reasoning and Sentence Correction), with strategies on how to excel at each. But the basics you need for each can be found in the GMAT with CD-ROM book by Kaplan. Get this book only if you really need to improve in any of the three verbal sections, as you will be able to take a set of practice questions and three additional practice sets for each of them, followed by a comprehensive verbal section that should bring you up to speed even if your idioms and your grammar is a little rusty. Rounding up the book are precisely a Gramma Reference, a Guide to GMAT's most common idioms and a Guide to Usage and Style.
Rating: 5
Summary: Comprehensive review with tough questions
Comment: Pros (in the order of personal preference):
- #1 by far is the questions: tough as nails, at least as difficult as the ones in the GMAT 800 book (also by Kaplan);
- Idiom reference and their GMAT-specific usage (i.e.: "consider to be" will never be correct on the GMAT, but "consider" will be);
- More comprehensive discussion of strategies for all of the questions types. In fact I would skip the verbal section of Kaplan's general GMAT guide (the one with the CD) in favor of this workbook.
Con:
- A couple of questions on the sample verbal section test appear in the other Kaplan guides.
Overall, the best guide to the verbal section of the GMAT I have seen. Highly recommended.
Rating: 4
Summary: DO NOT buy it if u bought the other Kaplan + CD-ROM
Comment: This book provides great exercises to practice your verbal skills. It has practice questions at the end of each section as well as THREE practice tests for each of the three different types of verbal questions. Finally, it gives you one full-length GMAT Verbal section test. Lessons are written very clearly, with good tips and examples.
BUT, if you have the other Kaplan book that comes with CD-ROM (math + verbal), DO NOT BUY this one as it repeats some of the same questions (quite a lot!).
