Hi guys,

I've just completed OG12 and want to buy some CATs to practice..

Which one do you advice?

I know just Manhattan CATs but do they represent the actual test?

Thanks in advance

Hi Guduna,
Welcome to the GMAT Club

Well Yes Manhattan Gmat tests are good no doubt.the quant part of MGMAT tests is bit harder rest its the next best tests available for GMAT preparation.i will advice to not just simply buy MGMAT tests.Buy Any one MGMAT book of ur likes its 26$ and u may get some discount on it ..MGMAT tests are free with purchase of any MGMAT book..while the test seperately are available for 39$

Good part is explaination of tests with answer is gr8!!
MGMAT SC is Gr8 If u dont have it rest u can see for number properties or any other.

Apart for MGMAT the other tests if u wanaa try is 800 score tests they are also good.
If u specially wanna focus on ur quant section for good 700+ level questions u can try GMAT CLUB tests ...

Also apart from all this u can take one diagnostic test free of knewton,veritas,kaplan

...although these dont offer their full practice tests seperately...

I hope it helps u!!
thanx
sandy

Guduna,

This thread should have all the answers you're looking for (list of tests, cost, reviews, etc.):

all-gmat-cat-practice-tests-links-prices-reviews-77460.html

GMAT Prep is free (two versions) and the old Powerprep (DOS version, still useful, still free):

Gudana,

Also try Knewton's free test and see if you like that.

Thanks,
Dawg

You can leech out 4 tests from Gmatprep and few from powerprep.
powerprep is not adaptive but it will be good for getting used to online tests and practice.

Then you can opt for Gmatclub's test and Mgmat test's. Gmatclub tests are not adaptive.

You will only have to buy mgmat tests or any of its strategy books. For gmatclub's tests if you contribute here you can get them for free.

If you still need more mock's you can try free tests of all the prep companies but do read the links given by mohater.

HI Guduna,
thanx for appreciating my post..
U dont need to buy GMAT prep seperately.U will get two GMAT prep for download if u register on MBA.com..even if u dont schedule ur GMAT exam just by registering u will be able to download these tests for free or u can order A free CD of GMAT prep..although it will take 2-3 weeks....
although there are 2 prep tests u can take them 3-4 times as their question database is large so very less repeatation of questions even after taking 2 tests..
Also dont forget to try GMAT CLUB tests today for free..

Thanx
