Inhaltsangabe

The Analytical Writing Assessment (AWA) section is a challenge for many takers of the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT). An added challenge is the lack of preparation material available, especially with regard to detailed explanations of certain categories of the assessment section such as finding the flaw, method of reasoning, and parallel reasoning. In response to our students' requests, Manhattan Review has created what students most want: the only book on the market that discusses in detail all available argument types appearing on the test in 2016. This book contains more than 30 questions with these types. Another distinctive feature is that each question is explained in a three-tier structure – helping you understand the argument construction; teaching you to predict the qualifying answer beforehand; and explaining each option with an emphasis on why the correct answer is right and the incorrect answers are wrong. The book then presents solutions to 40 real argument topics, but not just one solution. Four solutions (scored 6/5/3/2), along with their critiques, are provided so students learn why a good essay gets a high score and what is lacking in another. In short, this book represents the best possible preparation you can get for the AWA section on the GMAT!

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Manhattan Review's origin can be traced directly back to an Ivy League MBA classroom in 1999. While teaching advanced quantitative subjects to MBAs at Columbia Business School in New York City, Professor Dr. Joern Meissner developed a reputation for explaining complicated concepts in an understandable way. Remembering their own less-than-optimal experiences preparing for the GMAT, Prof. Meissner's students challenged him to assist their friends, who were frustrated with conventional GMAT preparation options. In response, Prof. Meissner created original lectures that focused on presenting GMAT content in a simplified and intelligible manner, a method vastly different from the voluminous memorization and so-called tricks commonly offered by others. The new approach immediately proved highly popular with GMAT students, inspiring the birth of Manhattan Review.

Since its founding, Manhattan Review has grown into a multi-national educational services firm, focusing on GMAT preparation, MBA admissions consulting, and application advisory services, with thousands of highly satisfied students all over the world. The original lectures have been continuously expanded and updated by the Manhattan Review team, an enthusiastic group of master GMAT professionals and senior academics. Our team ensures that Manhattan Review offers the most time-efficient and cost-effective preparation available for the GMAT. Please visit www.ManhattanReview.com for further details.
