Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
In 2000, Teach for America alumnus and Yale graduate Zeke Vanderhoek had a radical idea: students learn better from better teachers. His vision of what test prep could be if taught by great educators led him to assemble a team of highly qualified teachers, recruiting only those with 99th percentile scores and substantial teaching experience. And with them, Manhattan Prep was born.

Fake book

Reviewed in India on 20 July 2021

The media could not be loaded.

Fake book. Bought it from Cloudtail, thinking it would be original. Pages in the middle of the book are upside down, in reverse order, and have holes in them.

I am Domenico AKA Carcass, a GRE Expert and run GREPrepClub Forum Community

At Manhattan Prep Company, they did a fantastic job crafting and releasing this book about the verbal part of the GRE test: from the book you learn, eventually, all the possible strategies, tips, and tricks to tackle most efficiently in the less time reasonable the 3 type of questions during the test: TC, SC, and RC.

Ideally, the version of the book is the following: "The content in the new Manhattan Prep GRE Math Strategies is an updated version of the math content in the Manhattan Prep GRE Set of 8 Strategy Guides".

However, the only upgrade that you can see is the melting of the previous three verbal manhattan guides - and that as it turns out, they were part of the Manhattan Prep GRE Set of 8 Strategy Guides - in one massive book.

The Good
***********************************************************************

If you follow the strategy in this book religiously, you will undoubtedly land the highest score during the GRE. The tutors who wrote the book will lead you by hand throughout every possible nuance about a long and short passage, signal words that warn you about a possible meaning shift, how to conduct a four-step process to analyze and tackle even the most difficult one, how to take notes, traps to avoid like a plague. Everything you could imagine is in the book. The drill sets for every type of question, in which the subjects are categorized in three difficulty level: easy, medium; and hard, are five stars. Nothing to point out.
Moreover, the explanations are well-rounded. No expense has been spared. Pick this book with confidence.

The Bad
***********************************************************************

The book does not bring into the picture anything new. This is a shame. I would expect at least 20% of the new material and never published from one release and the following upgrade. However, this is not the case. In my opinion, you should buy the book, which is not expensive after all, only and solely if you DO NOT have the previous MGRE verbal books. Otherwise, the spending is not justified.

Overall
***********************************************************************

The book is in the top-grade position of the category. However, it is only for those who do not have the previous version. I am a huge fan of Manhattan Prep Company for their outstanding job to teach everything is possible for the highest score but a book equal to the previous ones leads me to some disquiet.

Fake book? No code to access online resources

The instruction online and in the book both mentioned a 32digit code to access online resources. No such thing found in mine.
