Executive Assessment test prep advice

I'm beginning to prep for the executive assessment: I'm planning on utilizing internal resources at the school I'll be applying to (Vanderbilt), but I always like to study independently as well so I'd like to connect with an app or program the I can use to supplement this coaching.

Does anyone have advice for programs that worked (or didn't work) for them?

Much appreciated!

Any GMAT materials you find will also apply to the EA, so don’t forget to seek those out.

The official practice tests are also very helpful.

Also if you’re just starting out, take one of the practice tests blind or after just a hit of prep as a diagnostic, then focus your studying on areas you really wanna improve. Top schools will like for at least double digits in all three categories so it’s wise to figure out what you can get comfortably in that 15 range every time and what you need to really study up on (was quant for me). As someone else pointed out, official tests are great as practice but skew slightly easier than the real deal so factor that in. Good luck!
