Best Book for GRE Quantatitive

[Char123]

I am pretty confident with my quantitative ability, but I would like to get a perfect score. Usually the questions I get wrong are because I am not reading the question carefully or made a stupid mistake, but occasionally I will miss a question because I don't know how to attack the problem or I didn't understand the problem statement.

 

What books out there are good for for GRE Q practice? I would prefer not to waste my time with relatively easy problems, but I also don't want to practice a bunch of extremely difficult problems that are outside of the scope of the test. Somewhere in between would be best.

 

 

I guess the section I am weakest on is: permutations&combinations, the really tricky ones (e.g., if I have 5 options, but you can only pick 3 and 2 of them can't work together - these are the ones that I have trouble with).

Magoosh is perfect and it's online (they have 581Q and 521V questions), and each question comes with a video that explains how to solve the question. The only issue is that the hard/very hard questions are most of the time out of the scope of the difficulty of the real GRE.

And I assume that it is the reason why they claim the ability to improve people's score so drastically.

it's been a while since i took the test, but i really like the princeton review approach. I know it's not for everyone, but from what you're describing you have no problem with the material, it's a matter of cracking the test questions themselves, and that's what the princeton review specializes in...

I agree that Magoosh is good...but for permutation/combination problems get the Manhattan word problems book.  You can get it used on Amazon for around 10 bucks.
