cartera Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Hi Cartera, I have seen many of your posts in TestMagic and I am sure, you deserve above 700 , I suggest take tones of test make yourself indifferent to the testing condition, probably u got 2 much nervous or something didn't work out. dont give up i am with U on the same boat Thanks a lot Finsisher, Im still struggling to find out what went wrong. It could have been a bad day. So, let's try again. The day before G day, I took 40 SCs from the cracked version of Gprep1 and failed 6 questions. After the exam, I got home and took a whole verbal set of Gprep1 and also only failed 6 questions and most of those questions were not repeated.

ss1 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 guys, i need some help:how do the 800 score tests compare to the real thing? i think the math is harder in 800 score tests than that in OG11. Also, i scored a 43 in Quant in the kaplan diagnostic, and i only got 6 wrong. isnt that too low? i got 3 wrong on the PR test, and scored a quant 50 (is that too high??). can someone please, please guide me about the math in GMAT? Are OG 11, GMAT prep and Power Prep enough to score a Q: 45 or above? Also, how do these score translate into the real thing?PPREP 1: 690GMAT PREP: 680PR: 720please help me!I'm very very scared about the math section. I've never scored below Q43...except on 800 score, where I seem to get 15 wrogn at one time!!thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-school-bound Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I just finished taking the GMAT. Here's how my scores compared to my practice test. GMATPrep Practice Test #1 Quant - 49 Verbal - 47 Total score 770 GMAT actual test Quant - 49 Verbal - 42 Total score 760 I did not do any studying or preparation between the practice test and the actual. I only took one practice test. What I would change: On the practice test I monitored my time better than on the actual test. On the actual test I ran out of time on the Quatitative section and had to guess randomly on the last 5 questions. On the actual test verbal section I worked faster than I needed to, and completed the section with 6 minutes to spare. Hope this helps others who are preparing for the GMAT!

blesboy Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Actual GMAT - 720(Q49, V40); AWA - 6 MGMAT practice test - 700 (Q43, V41) Powerprep2 - 680 (q45,v38) MGMAT test 3 - 680 Kaplan Cat 1 - 560 (q38, V30) - My advice is to avoid Kaplan. Saps your morale and some of the Verbal questions have bad/incorrect gramma Kaplan Paper Test - 670 (Q48, V41) 800 score verbal (1) - scaled score 44 (91st percentile) MGMAT test 1 - (some repeats) - 720 (Q 47, V42) GMAT Prep 1- 710 (Q47, V41) GMAT Prep 2 - 730 (Q48, V41) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zmustafa Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Just finished my gmat and I am spinning. I got a 460. my lowest score ever. Before any prep. 500 one month of prep. 490 Kaplan Dia. 540 Kaplan CATs- 1 thru 8 - 580, 560, 590, 600, 620, 600, 670, 650 I was not unfamiliar with any Quant question and was very certain I arrived at the right answer. More shocking. One every one of my practice test I was above the 70th perc. on my verbal but i got a 17th perc. score on the real exam.

pgreenjr Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Just finished the GMAT; this board has been a great help to me, so I thought I'd contribute. 3/24/2010 Actual GMAT: 750 (Q48, V44) Practice Exams (can't remember all the dates) Mid-Feb GMATPrep1: 750 3/17/2010 Kaplan1: 580 (Q36, V35) 3/19/2010 MGMAT Free Test: 700 (Q44, V41) 3/21/2010 PR Gmat Free Test: 670 (Q40, V43) 3/23/2010 GMATPrep2: 750 (Q47, V47) Overall, the GMATPrep tests are the best indicators of how well prepared you are. The Kaplan tests weren't very worthwhile in my opinion (the questions are structured differently from the GMAC questions). The Manhattan and Princeton Review tests were both great; neither of them scored me quite as high as I actually performed, but the questions were similar in structure to the actual exam questions, and they give you feedback on the questions you miss (so that you can figure out what you did wrong)--something the GMATPrep practice tests don't do. I took the Veritas Prep class, which was pretty good (the books were great); they give you access to a whole slough of different exams, though, when you sign up for the class. In my opinion, the MGMAT and PR practice tests beat out the rest (except, of course, for the GMATPrep exams) by a long shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanperez Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Evolution: -------------------------------------- 1 month to the test: MGMAT CAT1 680 (Q 46, V 37) KAPLAN CAT1 570 (Q 50, V 24) MGMAT CAT2 680 (Q 48, V 34) MGMAT CAT3 700 (Q 49, V 36) KAPLAN CAT2 600 (Q 46, V 29) MGMAT CAT4 680 (Q 48, V 34) MGMAT CAT5 720 (Q 50, V 38) PRINCETON CAT Demo 620 (Q 48, V 28) --> Took the test starting at 10 pm MGMAT CAT6 700 (Q 51, V 35) ------------------------------------------------ One week to the test: GMAT PREP1 680 (Q48, V 35) KAPLAN CAT3 - (Q50) --> Bored of Kaplan --> Too harsh scoring on Verbal ------------------------------------------------ Two days before the test: GMAT PREP2 680 (Q48, V 35) ------------------------------------------------ Actual test: 700 (Q 50, V 35) Comments on CATs, Guides, etc. - Manhattan CATs: Really recommendable. Tough quantitative questions and nice online tools for tracking performance. The best. - Princeton Review: Quantitative part of the test had a similar difficulty to the Demo CAT available on the web. - Kaplan: I bought Kaplan because the questions were supposed to be tougher, but they weren't. The questions in actual GMAT do not look like Kaplans. - Official Guide: Only the last 30 exercises of each section. - GMAT PREP: Last but not the least ... Before taking the GMAT I wondered ... Is GMAT Prep so close to the Actual GMAT? A: YES. It is really similar. If you can control your nerves or nothing strange happens you should perform similar in GMAT and in GMAT Prep. RECOMMENDATION: Leave this tests for the last weeks! Bottom line - As a reference, I am not a native speaker, neither studied undergrad at the US - Gmat prep rocks - AWA: Practice! I did not and missed time on both argument and issue essays Thanks guys for all the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMontoya Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Great topic to share!! Actual GMAT: 620 (Q38, V37) Other (3 days before): 620 (Q48, V27) GMAT Prep 2: 620 Manhattan: 620 GMAT Prep 1: 650 800score (4 test average): 550 I want to share 2 other things: 1. I had been performing low on the Verbal Section, so I decided to study hard before the test on it. I didnt study Math because I was doing great: Big Mistake!!! Never do that!! I actually improved so much on verbal, but at the cost of losing precious points on Math. 2. Always check what you did wrong on your practice tests, that's something I neglected! Now, I have to start from the beginning to get the 700+ score I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowwow Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Great forum, really interesting to see how much the offered tests differ in terms of the resulting scores... Here are my scores in chronological order: 05/15/2010: Kaplan Practice Test: 550 (Paper-based from the book) 05/27/2010: GMAC GMAT Prep 1: 640 06/03/2010: 800Score.org Test 1: 580 06/05/2010: Crack GMAT FREE Test: 595 06/06/2010: Manhattan GMAT FREE Test: 620 06/06/2010: GMAC GMAT Prep 2: 690 06/07/2010: ACTUAL GMAT: 700 I can totally support the statement that the original GMAT Prep Software with its tests is by far the best indicator for one`s actual performance. In terms of timing, I had serious problems with most of the other GMAT tests, but with the original one`s timing was never such a big issue for me. Anyways, GOOD LUCK everybody who still needs to take the test. And believe me: It`s gonna be DONE one day! :-) Best regards from Frankfurt, Germany...

Nikki700 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I took the GMAT yesterday I was shocked to see my score. I had practiced very very hard. I had read through the posts on this forum. And worked through the problems. Here are my scores of the exams I took KAPLAN diagnostic 600 Took the classroom Kaplan course Kaplan: CAT #1 -610, CAT #590, CAT 3 #590, CAT#4 - 630, CAT #5 - 650, CAT #6 - 620 Manhattan GMAT: CAT # 1 680, CAT #2 - 640, CAT #3 650 GMAT PREP #1 (4 Days before exam) - 660 GMAT PREP #2 (1 Day before exam) 670 ACTUAL GMAT - 580 (Q 39, V 31). Was not nervous, had a good night's sleep, but don't know what happened. Can anyone provide guidance? I hate to think that GMAT will crush my MBA dream and hopes.
