GMAT 111: Tips, Tricks, and Tactics

There are a lot of books on the market that aim to cover the content of the GMAT. Rarely does such a book provide an thorough strategy for studying, preparing, and attacking the entire test.

That's why I wrote GMAT 111: Tips, Tricks, and Tactics. Broken into 111 bite-size chapters, it walks you through the entire process, from determining a goal score, to encountering Data Sufficiency for the first time, to handling the stress of exam day.

More than anything else I've written, GMAT 111 is like a "Best of GMAT Hacks." For the last four years, I've been sharing my insights on the GMAT Hacks website. GMAT 111 organizes and combines them into one resource--and even long-time readers will find new concepts here to improve their score.

This book is designed to be concise and to-the-point. Each chapter is no longer than one page, meaning you can read and understand a new idea during downtime at work or in a few minutes before bed. Each concept is actionable, so you can immediately put it to work in your next study session.

Jeff Sackmann is the author of Total GMAT Math, Total GMAT Verbal, GMAT 111, Total GRE Math, and a variety of other test-prep resources. He also created and posts free material at the GMAT Hacks website. He has been helping students prepare for the GMAT and apply to business school since 2000. Until July, 2005, he worked for one of the large test-prep companies, teaching classroom courses, running workshops, and tutoring. He has taught the GMAT, LSAT, GRE, SAT, and countless other specialized admissions and certification exams. In addition to teaching, he has written curriculum (including thousands of practice questions), trained teachers, and starred in instructional videos. In his books, Jeff focuses two things: building solid content knowledge and providing extremely realistic practice material. Unlike many other resources on the market, his practice problems are virtually indistinguishable from the real thing, meaning that you are that much more prepared for the GMAT before you sit for the exam. When he is not writing about standardized tests, you can often find Jeff on a tennis court or running through the streets of New York City, training for his next marathon.
