610 to 760 (Q50, V41) - GMAT experience and advice

Hello,

My last exam was in mid-December. I would say the final exam was very similar to my GMATPrep mocks.

Personally, I preferred taking official mock tests because I could be certain that the scoring algorithm is accurate. I didn't take enough full third party mocks to really determine how similar they are to the official ones, but I'd say the questions themselves for MGMAT, Veritas and Economist are definitely good enough to practice on. My advice would be that if you intend to take third party mock tests, then take them early on in your prep. This is not to get an accurate score estimate, but to identify your weak areas and to practice time management. During the last 1-2 months, I'd suggest switching over to official mock tests, because at that time it will be more important to get an idea of what your score will reasonably be on test day.
