GMAT Prep Veritas vs Manhattan Prep (Online Instruction)

Hi everyone,

I'm aiming to take the GMAT in a couple months and I'm looking into prep options. After trying out the free trials, I've limited them down to Veritas and Manhattan Prep. I'm looking for an online self-study method that is comprehensive and will help me to reach my 700+ goal (I scored 600 on my first practice exam, still rusty on material).

I like Veritas because it seems very straight-forward, has a strategy focused approach, and has about 5000 practice questions. But I also like MP due to the interactive nature of the online course that will help me identify weaknesses while following a well thought out syllabus.

Any key takeaways from the two prep courses that will help me choose the best path? I've considered taking Veritas and adding in either a Quant or Verbal section from MP depending on where I struggle. I also plan on supplementing courses with OG test material and GMATclub quant problems.

Thank you all!

Best,
Ben

Thanks, this is great insight! That's around where I'm starting and I want to get up to 700+. How many hours would you say you studied per week? I'm looking to do 15-20 hrs a week and hopefully take the test in the next 6-8weeks. (Aiming for 100+ study hours)
