~~~~~ STRENGTHS ~~~~~- No tricks, just straightforward strategies to every section (3-4 steps). Easy to remember and simple to use- Was just the right length for me (covered it in 3 weeks)- Good number of exercise questions; both 220 GMAT-like (220) and exercises in the chapters; the questions are on the harder side- Style/Usage guide and list of idioms (you must know all of these)- Sets the right expectations (GMAT-style reading is very different from casual reading). You must forget what you know and re-learn reading to succeed- The CR approach to answer the question before reading answer choices works like a charm- The RC section is what really shines in this book~~~~~ WEAKNESSES ~~~~~- I felt the SC section was a little weak (5 pages plus a grammar section in the back). If you are a non-native speaker, you should definitely plan on getting a dedicated grammar book. Kaplan's Verbal Foundations is not bad- One of the question sets/banks overlaps with the online exercises in the Kaplan Premier book- The CR questions are slightly different from the official "flavor", which is typical for third-party questions. Keep this in mind and make sure you train your ear on the Official Guide or GMAT Prep before the test~~~~~ BOTTOM LINE: Though not as detailed as some of the dedicated RC, CR, SC books, it provides a good balance of useful strategies/instruction and time required to cover them. Good number of practice questions and also a grammar/style usage guide at the end.
