Hi ctk99!

Firstly 730 is a good mock score. Now, as you've already mentioned that you made silly mistakes, try not repeating during your main exam and answering the next part of your question, since you are from UK, you might very well know that LBS is a very good and pretty hard to get into. Now, is 730 good enough to get into LBS? The answer to that question depends on a variety of factors starting from your academic background and other stuff.

But if your question was whether 730 is a competitive score for LBS? then it's a definite yes. I'm sure you would try to learn from the mistakes you did and I wish you get into your dream school!

Good luck!

I was expecting around a 650 but was shocked when I got a 730 (Q48 V41) and I am just wondering about the accuracy of these tests?

Probably fair to say another Official Mock that is a 730+ is a good sign you'll get at least 700+ on an actual exam.

For Verbal, consider working on your solving approach if you feel your fundamentals are solid. May boost your score a bit. Had a 6-hour student retake from a V41 to a V45 in less than 2 weeks. Perhaps working with a study buddy with ace verbal skills may be helpful.

Hi ctk99,

Great work with your 730 practice test score! The good news is that the official MBA.com practice exams are quite accurate. However, if you are concerned that your score is a fluke, take one more official practice exam, and then let us know how it goes.
