Ace the GMAT

In order to attain the high GMAT scores needed to get into the top business schools of their choice, an increasing number of prospective b-school candidates are taking the GMAT more than once. But how does one go about acing the test for the first time or bolstering a second attempt? The book is a distillation of the experiences of a veteran test-prep instructor, MBA Admissions coach, author and education raconteur. It offers a philosophy built on two simple but powerful propositions: Identify the principles behind classic problem types. Succeed first by not getting the easy questions wrong and then go on to get the difficult questions right! Ace the GMAT contains two of the author's own inventions: The Big Seven Number Cracker for open-ended variable problems in Data Sufficiency and the Four-Corner Question Cracker for Reading Comprehension questions.
