I recommend magoosh.com to everyone who's taking the GMAT. Took me from a 630 to a 700 in less than 6 weeks. To make things even better they're running a special right now where you can get the whole package for $99 instead of $400.
I used Manhattan, and after my research I think Manhattan / Veritas are the best two prep courses around. I did the self study packets through Manhattan, but I'm sure they have a module based offering as well. Not sure if you need videos to facilitate module learning (Manhattan course I did is organized into chapters I read through), but a lot of the GMAT prep will just come down to cranking through multiple choice questions.
Manhattan helped me significantly (590 on first test unprepared up to 750 on the real deal over a 6 week study process while working full time).
I went with magoosh for budgetary reasons. I have been talking to the JD/Dual degree person, and she says I can do the program starting after the second year, but I may have to skip some of the electives. Looking through the curriculum it looks like there is a spot for 14 electives. I need to figure out how many I will actually lose, but she hasn't really answered that yet. Assuming it isn't too many. Let's say I still take 10 of 14 in Finance. Is this a non-issue or an issue for employers? Is all that matters is the MBA title or are they truly interested in me taking as many finance electives as possible.
