Adapting to the ever-changing GMAT exam, Manhattan Prep's 6th Edition GMAT Strategy Guides offer the latest approaches for students looking to score in the top percentiles. Written by active instructors with 99th-percentile scores, these books are designed with the student in mind. 

The Word Problems GMAT Strategy Guide demystifies the most challenging of math questions on the GMAT—the word problem. This book equips students with broad, powerful strategies, as well as specific tools, for tackling GMAT word problems in all their various guises. 

Unlike other guides that attempt to convey everything in a single tome, the Word Problems GMAT Strategy Guide is designed to provide deep, focused coverage of one specialized area tested on the GMAT. As a result, students benefit from thorough and comprehensive subject material, clear explanations of fundamental principles, and step-by-step instructions of important techniques. In-action practice problems and detailed answer explanations challenge the student, while topical sets of Official Guide problems provide the opportunity for further growth. 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Zeke Vanderhoek. In 2000, Teach for America alumnus and Yale graduate Zeke Vanderhoek had a radical idea: students learn better from better teachers. His vision of what test prep could be if written and taught by great educators led him to start Manhattan Prep. Since we began, Manhattan Prep has grown from a boutique tutoring company to one of the world's leading test prep providers, offering GMAT, GRE, LSAT, ACT, and SAT courses and tutoring worldwide. 

We believe test prep should be real education. From our instructors to our materials, we work to teach you the skills you'll need to succeed on the test, in school, and beyond.
