Power prep Questions :- how often are they refreshed? [#permalink] New post   27 Mar 2006, 00:24
Hi All

Need your help. I took my Gmat last week. My target score was 680+but I could manage only 510. Q - 40 & V - 21. I was totally disappointed and was in look out for discussion forums like this to share suggestions and seek some helping hands for my next GMAT.
I believe I am quite lucky to hit this site and hope to be actively involved till I score 700.
I took powerprep 1 and 2 just before my GMAT, in fact the day before. Surprisingly I scored the same in both powerprep 1 & 2 as I did in my GMAT.
So my immediate target will be to score high in power prep down loads before I take my GMAT. But I am not sure how often they are refeshed or updated. Does any one of you know ? Need your help guys. :cry:

Thank you.

As far as I know, the downloads for Powerprep don't "refresh" that often. I think there are people who said that you can reinstall the GMATprep for new sets of questions. You may want to try that out.

Anyway, before you work on the powerprep or gmatprep, you should consider working on the Official Guide and other giude books.

Thank you Koh,

That makes sense. May be I should try to download every week and overwrite the old copy.

When I saw my power prep's score matching 100% (both verbal and Quant.) with my Gmat. I thought most of you would have had the same experience and would have tried to score high on these tests to benchmark yourself with GMAT.

But after I going through this forum, I understand that none of them had really highlighted the importance of taking these tests.

the GmatPrep and powerpreps can be very good indicators of how you will do on the real test. But you should be careful not to confuse yourself with respect to your goal. Your goal is to score well on the actual test. By focusing too heavily on the particular practice test, you will do more to skew your practice test results than to improve your real performance.

You should use them as tools to gauge yourself and whether you feel ready. Over gauging yourself is not necessarily going to help you much.

i agree with above ... use the PP test as a guide. i would also save at least one PP test for the last week of your prep ..

Where does one download this powerprep stuff?

MBA.com only has GMATPrep? I'm confused.
