Actually looks like you did :)
I just got an email from Knewton. I have turned on Access to the GMAT Club Tests (manual process :oops: )

You beat me to my post, but let me add this: :lol:

So far the course is interesting. Given that I am math major and never scored below 50q, I still managed to make. few mistakes in math homework.

Math is definitely slow, but I just let the on-demand video run in background while I am doing PS or DS on GmatClub.

And of course - very impressive with 50Q.

So far

Quant Quant is unfortunately slow. I get some tips here and there (ie on choice driven questions start from the bottom). I think lectures are great for people who haven't done math in years.

Verbal Haven't had a lecture yet, but pre-homework I did was great: 34 questions testing different aspects of SC. 20% of those questions were close to SC style. Looking forward to first Verbal class.

What is the best time to start taking the knewton classes ? I see that they either have their diagnostic score as the baseline score or the GMAT score (if you have one) and use that for the money back guarantee. I have not written my GMAT yet and I just started with the preparation. Should I start getting scores above 600 in the usual tests (kaplan, princeton etc) and then sign up for the course so that my baseline score will be higher so that I can make use of the money back guarantee ?

Please advise.

I'd recommend just signing up with them and doing baseline now.

Hm... they just had a 50% off deal yesterday (the best I've ever seen), but there is still this deal going on until the 22 or 23:

I had already passed Gmat exam and scored 620..How should I proceed to make it my baseline (for money-back programme)?

I think it is done automatically as that score is on your score score port and your second score will show up there as well.
