I just finished week 2 of my prep.
The first week I skimmed the Kaplan Book to get an overview of the format of the test.
At the end of the first week I took my first CAT:
GMATPrep1, July 5th, 2008: 750 (Q51, V41)I felt pretty good during the cat. Finished both sections with approximately 15min. to spare.
It was clear that my SC needed the most work.
I spent week 2 with the
MGMAT SC guide, and did the 140 or so SC questions in OG11.
At the end of the second week:
MGMAT_CAT1: July 12th, 2008: 730 (Q48, V42)The questions were noticeably different from GMATPrep. Math became very challenging very quickly.
I mismanaged time and was actually rushed. I had 15 minutes for final 15 questions and guessed on approximately 5-7. This undoubtedly hurt my Quant score.
I felt a bit more comftorable with SC, but I felt that the
MGMAT CAT focused pretty heavily on concepts they covered in their chapters (whereas OG questions aren`t nearly as clear cut).
