How misleading are Kaplan CATs? Help!!! 4 days left!! [#permalink] New post 02 Jul 2007, 14:46
guys:

I have 4 days left till my actual GMAT test day. So far, i have not been using any other studying materials but Kaplan online course. I've read many people's posts saying that Kaplan is no good and their CATs are off track.

I have taken 4 Kaplan CATs so far:

CAT1: 680
CAT2: 690
CAT3: 660
CAT6: 680

And I've scored consistantly higher than 50 in the math part. Just how misleading is Kaplan? Are my math scores lying to me as well?

Help!

from my understanding kaplan is tougher so it inaccurately sells you short by giving you a lower score

if you are scoring upwards of 600 then you should expect that if not higher in the actual gmat

good luck

I agree, Kaplan scores are not a good indication of your official score. I took a Kaplan test, and the PR diagnostic in the same week, Kaplan 640 PR 710. Take the official CAT from GMAT Prep if you haven't already, it's the best CAT out there.
