Ratings & Reviews

"Of all the study materials I have seen (Manhattan, GMAT, Veritas, Knewton, and Princeton Review) you have the best tactics for tackling CR problems. I have literally gone from taking almost 3 to 4 minutes on each CR problem when I started to now around 1.5 minutes each, sometimes faster than sentence correction problems. So, thank you!"

"This book is seriously amazing! Was plateauing on the Verbal section of the GMAT at the 89 percentile, and this book helped increase my Verbal score by 7 percentage points."
