What You Receive

Manhattan GMAT Complete Prep Set

  • Complete Strategy Guide Set and eBooks
    Our Strategy Guides are the core of our curriculum. These guides provide a comprehensive review of each topic tested on the GMAT and are valuable tools outside of the class for preparation and homework.
  • 3 Official Guides For GMAT Review (13th Ed., Verbal, and Quant)
    The GMAT problems found in these books were once featured on real GMAT exams. These problems have been compiled into the 3 Official Guides published by GMAC, and are the best source of practice questions on the market. For this reason, Manhattan GMAT thoroughly addresses all the skills tested in the Official Guides.
  • OG (Official Guide) Archer
    One common issue our students cite about the Official Guide for GMAT Review is that the explanations are not always as helpful as they could be. The OG Archer allows you to review the explanations via an online platform and track your answers. Detailed statistics based on your answers allow you to analyze your strengths and weaknesses.
  • 6 Computer Adaptive Practice Tests
    These practice tests mimic the GMAT test-taking experience so that you are more prepared for the exam before you go into a real testing center. In addition, the Manhattan GMAT Assessment Reports organize your test data so you can quickly identify your strengths and weaknesses, helping you study more effectively.
  • Foundations of GMAT Math Strategy Supplement, eBook & Workshops
    Covering the basics of GMAT math, the Foundations of Math (FoM) workshops are designed to help students master core math concepts, processes, and skills. The Strategy Supplement draws from the workshops to provide easy-to-follow explanations of fundamental math concepts and step-by-step application of these concepts to example problems.
  • Foundations of GMAT Verbal Strategy Supplement and eBook
    The Foundations of GMAT Verbal Strategy Supplement provides a refresher of the basic verbal concepts tested on the GMAT. It’s an invaluable resource for students who want to cement their understanding of basic principles such as grammar, logic, and reading, while building core verbal skills for the GMAT.
  • Additional Resources
    Other resources include a Test Simulation Booklet, online skill-building labs, class recordings of all sessions, the Challenge Problem Archive (700+level quant questions), a free pass for computerized GMAT essay grading, and various downloadable study aids. As an optional addition, students can request the Advanced GMAT Quant Strategy Supplement, designed for students seeking a 650+ score and already achieving at least a 70th percentile quant score on practice exams.
  • Office Hours (additional fee)
    You have the option to schedule one-on-one, 30-minute online / phone sessions with an instructor. Use this time to review challenging GMAT problems or to focus on weak areas.
  • Recorded Sections
    Sections are 1-hour online meetings to review Official Guide homework problems after you have attempted them. Sections are taught by Manhattan GMAT instructors. Each class session has 3 corresponding Sections: Quant, Advanced Quant, and Verbal. As a Complete Course student, you have access to 27 hours of recorded Section review.
