MALIBU, CA--(Marketwire - September 21, 2010) - As e-books and digital content become increasingly popular among the tech-savvy cohort of prospective business school applicants, Veritas Prep, the largest privately-owned GMAT prep company in the world, today announced the availability of its industry-leading GMAT prep books for download on the iPad. Originally available only to students who registered for a Veritas Prep GMAT course, test-takers can now develop customized study programs using individual downloadable books from the most comprehensive GMAT prep course ever created.
Each book is rooted in Veritas Prep's revolutionary approach to GMAT education which focuses exclusively on higher order thinking -- one's cognitive ability to analyze, synthesize, and critically evaluate. Recognizing that these are the primary skills tested on the notoriously competitive business school entrance exam, Veritas Prep designed its GMAT curriculum accordingly. To achieve optimal results, Veritas Prep trains test-takers to solve problems like a talented manager, rather than memorize content.
"Now anyone preparing for the GMAT can access the renowned Veritas Prep lessons across multiple platforms, including traditional print booklets and the iPad," explains Chad Troutwine, Co-Founder and CEO of Veritas Prep. "Our approach has always been grounded in the pedagogical notion that success on the GMAT is a consequence of well developed higher-order thinking, and now students have more ways than ever to learn and practice those skills."
GMAT test-takers can procure iPad downloads of any of Veritas Prep's suite of 15 GMAT prep books, including:
Math Essentials

Critical Reasoning I
