Need MATH help for GMAT...GOOD BOOK

If you are math impaired and did not do so well on the Math section of GMAT diagnostic this is a great book for you! It does NOT give you gmat practice questions but it does give you a good overview on all Math topics covered on GMAT. It provides a few practice questions per topic simply to reiterate a subject. I started w/ this before jumping into the Official Guide and I found it very helpful!If you are below average or simply average on the diagnostic test this is for you. If you are a "math smarty" this will be a bore!

Highly Recommended!

This book can be used as a first-time workbook or as a review. The subjects are geared toward preparing for the standardized math tests found in the SAT, GRE & GMAT exams, but are equally useful for passing job-placement numerical tests. The language & examples are targeted toward young adults (is that a PC term?) without excluding or offending the rest of us. The style is very chatty with lots of interesting visuals. Many practice exercises with both answers and step-by-step explanations of how the answers were arrived at. This book covers the basics of math in a fun way.
