Product Description
Fractions, Decimals, and Percents (1 of the 7 books in Manhattan GMATs Preparation Guide series) provides a highly organized and structured approach to the variety of questions in this quantitative content area. Students learn to see the connections among part-whole relationships and practice implementing strategic shortcuts. The book offers a unique balance between two competing emphases: test-taking strategies and in-depth content understanding. Practice problem-sets build specific foundational skills in each topic and include the most advanced content that many other prep books ignore. As the average GMAT score required to gain admission to top b schools continues to rise, this guide provides test-takers with the depth and volume of advanced material essential for succeeding on the GMATs computer adaptive format. Book also includes online access to 3 full-length Simulated Practice GMAT Exams at Manhattan GMATs website.

Very rudimentry November 16, 2008
This book can be valuable to those who never did well in grammar school and high school arithmetic or to those whose rudimentry math is extremely rusty. The book covers the simplest portion of GMAT quant section(fractons, decimals, percents). As its name implies, this book covers mostly rudimentry arithmetic which is sure to bore many GMAT takers.
I have found only 7 questions which I personally found somewhat challenging. Worse yet, the real GMAT questions are signficantly (but not substantially) more difficult than the questions presented in this book.
Still, this book provides valuable review of arithmetic. I was going to grant this book 4 stars but the explanation of the answers were really dumbed down to those who would have trouble with rudimentry arithmatic. Given that I could solve most of the problems in this book in my head, I have found book's advocacy of grids to solve basic arithmatic problems to be counterproductive.
