Barron's Gmat: How to Prepare for the Graduate Management Admission Test (Barrons How to Prepare for the Graduate Management Admission Test (Gmat), 11 ed)

GMAT testing has changed recently and will require different strategies on the part of test-takers. Barron's has kept pace, releasing this thoroughly revised and updated test prep manual with a recommended optional software program for Windows "RM". The old pencil-and-paper version of the GMAT has been phased out except in certain areas outside the United States. The old format has been replaced by an entirely new computer-adaptive test format. Just as important to test-takers, Educational Testing Service's previous practice of announcing nationally scheduled test dates no longer applies. Test-takers are now directed to schedule for testing individually by phoning Educational Testing Service at (609) 921-9000.Barron's new GMAT manual explains the new computer-adaptive test format in detail, and the optional software offers practice tests that utilize a scoring algorithm similar to that of the actual GMAT. The book offers printed versions of a diagnostic exam to test strengths and weaknesses plus 00 full-length model tests, all with answers and explanations. The manual also presents extensive reviews and test-taking advice for all test topics. They include essay-writing, critical reasoning, reading comprehension, sentence correction, problem solving, and data sufficiency. Barron's manual may be purchased alone, or as a package with the highly recommended software program, which is the only way for students to simulate actual test-taking conditions. The software contains 00 model tests, with answers, explanations, and the automatic scoring feature
