Manhattan Prep for GRE

[Buckhill]

Hey folks-

A little about me. I'm 45 yrs. old- switching careers having been in the fitness business for over 17 years. So- I'm very rusty with mathematics (which I was never good to begin with) and verbal skills. I'm currently finishing up my science prereq's at BMCC here in NYC. I'm REALLY hoping to go to Columbia because of their [COLOR=#333333]Masters Direct Entry program. I figure at this stage of my life- if I'm going to go through the rigors of an accelerated program I might as well aim for one that offers a masters degree, not a bachelors. NYU and Hunter have accelerated programs...but you come out with a bachelors in the end. Anyway- Columbia weighs their admission decision heavily on the GRE...so I'd like to prepare as much as possible.

So, I'm seriously considering taking the Manhattan prep course "live" here in NYC in a few weeks. I'm figuring I'll get much more out of taking the program in a group setting live than online. I've taken online courses before (in different areas of study) and the fact that I couldn't simply raise my hand to ask the teacher a question (that I had to search online for answers) just really pissed my off. Anyway, has anyone had any experience with this company...and specifically there "live" GRE course?
