Difference between Manhattan GMAT guides 2007 VS. 2005 ed.?

by Syu Wed Oct 31, 2007 9:25 pm

Hello.

I ordered the following 3 Manhattan GMAT guides (edition) :

1. Number Properties (Paperback - Nov 2005)
2. Equations, Inequalities(Paperback - Nov 2005)
3. Sentence Correction(Paperback - Nov 2005)

As you can see, they are not the 2007 edition. Are there substantial differences between these two editions in terms of their contents?

I am not sure whether to keep them or return them for the 2007 editions.

Thank you very much in advance.

For those three books, no, there are not substantial differences in the books themselves. However, the 2007 books give you access to online adaptive exams that are very similar to the real thing. The 2005 books do not give you access to those tests.

Also, just FYI in case you purchase other books, the 2005 edition of Critical Reasoning and Reading Comp is very different from the 2007 editions (starting with the fact that the 2007 editions are two books instead of one combined book - and most of the content is updated or expanded as well).
