The book walks you through all the problems which I find very helpful. I definitely recommend!
Great Supplement April 23, 2008
Katie Louis (Missouri, United States)
I think this book is a great supplement to the Official GMAT Review. While the Official GMAT Review provides loads of practice questions, this book does a better job of explaining the math concepts that will be tested on the GMAT. This is especially helpful as the GMAT tests math concepts that most of us haven't reviewed since high school.
I would recommend this book, especially if you're someone who is not typically satisfied by the short answers and explanations to math questions that most review books contain.
 Surprisingly useful August 24, 2006

For years, Kaplan produced a math workbook that covered both GRE and GMAT material, which was an endless source of confusion for students. While those two tests have a lot of similarities, the question types and difficulty levels merited separate books, and Kaplan has finally provided that.
I hadn't seen this book before this week (it was published just this month) and I was impressed. It's not designed for the very high scorer, though I've worked with very few students who wouldn't benefit from it. The best aspects of this book are the content drills--problem sets that aren't GMAT-style questions, but ensure that you know the basics, such as dividing fractions and manipulating exponents.
There isn't a great deal of helpful explanatory material, but the math tutorials are quite a bit better than the equivalent chapters in The Official Guide for GMAT Math Review. If you're at a very remedial level in math, you probably need a tutor and/or a couple friendly algebra and geometry books, but if you remember the basics, this volume should be enough to get you up to speed.
Best of all, there's more practice in this book than just about any other GMAT resource. With about 600 questions, it'll quickly show you where your strengths and weaknesses lie. I strongly recommend this book for anyone currently scoring a 550 or less, or anyone just starting out who is uncomfortable with the GMAT Math they've seen so far.

this is a good book for reviewing and practicing math skills.
but be aware: it is EXACTLY -- chapter by chapter, problem by problem -- the same as Kaplan's GRE Math Workbook.
 Math review, not additional problems August 8, 2008
M. Schoelwer
I bought this book after completing (twice) the math problems in another GMAT prep book. What I didn't realize about this math workbook was that it is NOT more math problems that are similar to those that will be on the GMAT. It's general review of concepts. The problems are focused on a specific area and do not require the use of multiple skills the way the real GMAT problems do. It's great for concept review, but I wouldn't reccomend it as a replacement for "real" GMAT problems.
