GMAT preperation

Hello everyone I want to write Gmat by the end of January next year. Problem is I am not into reading books( by books I mean a Novel, or inspirational books). So, What are the best possible ways or Books to study from to improve on my Grammar and Vocabulary for the Exam??  


General query....Do US B schools demand transcripts ??

I have left college 4 years back...n getting transcript is one hell of a task ( one of my friends took nearly 4 months to get them when he was applying for MS).
