Hi GMAT Malaysia, I am currently having Manhattan GMAT (MGMAT) 4th edition and OG12 as my prep books, and I've read some forums saying that 'Idioms' will no longer be tested in Verbal-SC....besides, I'm also planning to take the next generation GMAT, with integrated reasoning (IR)....by not taking IR into account, do you think MGMAT 4th ed & OG12 are good enough for me? Or is it necessary to get OG13 & MGMAT 5th ed?
Hi Unknown @ 4:38AM,
Well, since you are not taking the Integrated Reasoning into account, then probably the Official Guide 12th Edition would be sufficient. Typically about 20-30% of the questions - Verbal and Quant are replaced in every edition and previously unreleased questions are added.
I can't comment on the ManhattanGMAT 4th Edition or the Idioms questions. For the latter, unless it is officially mentioned by GMAC, I would continue to prepare for it.
You will have to decide what's best for your preparation. There are various sources of materials to help you prepare. You make that choice.
