Product Description
Geometry (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 every geometric principle, formula, and problem type tested on the GMAT and they master the intricacies of shapes, planes, lines, angles, and objects. 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.

Major imrovement over the previous version December 20, 2008
The geometry portion of GMAT has become much more difficult over the years. GMAT rarely test the basics (what is an area of a triangle?), but GMAT tests such things as "find the midpoint of a perpendicular bisector of a line with with equation y=mx+b".
The explanation of triangles and all its intricacies are explained in detail, such as a height of a triangle can be any perpndicular side of a base of a triangle even though the height is external to the triangle.
The book really shines in coordinate geometry. It provides very good explainations of finding intersection of two lines and perpendicular bisectors.
I highly recommend this book to those who are preparing for GMAT.
