Product Description
Word Translations (1 of the 7 books in Manhattan GMATs Preparation Guide series) provides a highly organized and structured approach to the variety of questions in this quantitative content area. Students learn to analyze the GMATs complex math word problems by translating problems into organized data and utilizing specific frameworks to arrive at solutions quickly and efficiently. The book offers a unique balance between two competing emphases: test-taking strategies and in-depth content understanding. Practice problem-sets build specific foundational skills in each topic and include the most advanced content that many other prep books ignore. As the average GMAT score required to gain admission to top b-schools continues to rise, this guide provides test-takers with the depth and volume of advanced material essential for succeeding on the GMATs computer adaptive format. Book also includes online access to 3 full-length Simulated Practice GMAT Exams at Manhattan GMATs website.

Good coverage of the basics December 20, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book does a very god job of covering Rate x Time=Distance problems, work problems, probability problems, and overlapping sets problems. It is also a major improvement over the previous edition in all areas.
The "word translation" problems in the real GMAT, however, make up for the largest portion of the Quant section of the GMAT. This book covers approximately maybe 80% of the question types.
The difficulty of the questions are geared toward the middle level test takers. The book does not cover some of the hardest questions GMAT gives you. But it will provide a very good foundation for the GMAT.
I recommend this book for those who are preparing for the GMAT.
