What did you think about Kaplan's math and writing? I thought math had enough practice in it, but there wasn't anything explaining the concepts. I thought Kaplan's writing was silly--at least the essay stuff. Kaplan's CR was alright.

KAPLAN CR WB :
Sentence Completion : A lot of weird words !!!
Critical Reading : Passage is so easy, Question is alright. Totally, to me, it's so easy and more notably, it doesn't reflect the real test.
I don't recommend you to use this book.
