All GMAT publications are available in both electronic and paperback formats.

 

For students who lack the time, money, and inclination to read an 800-page guide or complete an expensive test preparation class,
we offer a shorter, cheaper, and more direct approach to GMAT preparation.

Guerrilla Tactics for the GMAT: Secrets and Strategies the Test Writers Don’t Want You to Know (ISBN 9781933819332)
provides the most important tips and strategies that you will need to know to get a top score; it also gives practical advice to help you
conquer the typical traps and pitfalls that the test takers will inevitably throw
your way.

At this point, you may be wondering if you really need our publication. Throughout your life, your firends and professors have told you
that the only secret to acing the GMAT is being a whiz in the classroom; if you can read fast and handle complex math topics, you will
do OK. From our experience, they were only half right. In actuality, getting a top score on the GMAT hinges on TWO factors:

a. Knowing the material that the exam is designed to test
b. Knowing the tricks of the test writers, who tend to ask the same types of questions, with the same types of
traps and pitfalls, the same way on every exam

As a student, you spent years in school to master the grammatical and mathematical concepts that are tested on the GMAT. And, in
most cases, there were no tricks or shortcuts to learning them. But the GMAT is a one-of-a-kind beast that will test these concepts in
ways you have never seen before. It will also confuse and trick you in ways that you never dreamed possible. That's why so many top
students perform poorly on the GMAT; they were blindsided by the tricks and traps of the test writers.

Thankfully, you can conquer this aspect of the test far easier - and faster - than you learned basic grammer and math. With our guide,
you will l
earn the the tricks of the test writers (and develop a plan to tackle them) in just a few days. From our perspective, it is an
indispensable step in GMAT preparation.

That being said, we absolutely do NOT want to mislead you about your specific chances for success on the GMAT. No ethical author or
publication can guarantee that a reader will get a perfect score if (s)he follows a particular strategy or approach. Your performance on the
GMAT will depend, to a certain extent, on factors that are beyond our control, such
as your:

1. ability to read and comprehend dense passages quickly and critically
2. overall math and geometry skills
3. extemporaneous writing skills
4. working vocabulary
5. basic command of grammar and punctuation
6. tenacity and stamina on timed exams

Each student brings a unique set of skills and talents to the exam; as a result, GMAT questions that are hard for one student may be incredibly
easy for another. This is why most one-size-fits-all approaches to GMAT preparation are inherently doomed to fail.

And that’s why we’ve taken a different approach in Guerrilla Tactics for the GMAT, which every student can use to his/her advantage. Although
we have compiled an impressive amount of information in our appendices (including a review of grammar and math basics and an assortment of
vocabulary tools), our goal is NOT simply to teach you grammar or math. Instead, we are going to teach you the test itself, including the tricks, traps
and pitfalls that the GMAT writers use to confuse, distract and otherwise deflect your efforts to answer the questions correctly.

Our goal? To help you conquer the GMAT, whoever you are, whatever your background, however you choose to prepare for the exam. Like most battles,
preparation and skills are only half the equation. The other half is knowing your target, warts and all, before you enter the battlefield.

But don't take our word for it. Before you buy our guide, feel free to click the following links for free "sample" strategies from Guerrilla Tactics for the GMAT.
Find out why the students we coach score (on average) 100 points higher on each section of the exam than those of our competitors. Afterwards, if you want
to acquire the same "edge," come back and order the entire 200-page guide for $17.99.

Sample 1: Table of Contents

Sample 2: Who vs. Whom / Whoever vs. Whomever

Sample 3: Rates and Distances

Sample 4: Lie vs. Lay

How significant is this guide? Until now, we have NEVER endorsed a particular preparation strategy for the GMAT, because of the many flaws that each system entails, such as high cost, incorrect focus, and needless memorization. Over the years, we've watched too many well-meaning students take that road..... with disappointing results.

Instead, after careful deliberation, we have opted to publish our OWN strategic guide for students who want critical insight into the GMAT. From our experience, few students can achieve a top score without knowing - and mastering - the test writers' tricks, traps, and pitfalls. However you choose to prepare for the GMAT, our guide should be an integral part of your program.
