DebWenger, have you already already done all four of the GMATPrep practice tests? If not, those are definitely the best resource out there, and the GMATPrep Exam Pack is worth every penny. Even if you've already taken them, redoing the GMATPrep tests is probably a good idea -- the question banks are fairly large, and you'll definitely see some inflation in your scores when you retake them, but it's still worth the effort. You'll learn at least something from the experience.
Other than that… well, there are plenty of links to other GMAT practice tests in this thread. It's notoriously difficult for test-prep companies to write good verbal questions, so I would be careful not to take too many verbal practice tests from sources other than GMATPrep, but a nice mix of quant practice tests from various sources might not hurt.
Good luck with your retake!

Thanks GMATNinja for your suggestions.
I took the Kaplan free CAT yesterday and am thinking of taking a few more free CATs from various sources.
Also,thought of resetting my MGMAT CATs and redoing them.Wonder if that's a good idea!
Similarly am thinking of uninstalling the free GMAT prep tests. Had taken those tests earlier.Let me know though what u think about my approach here!Thanks!
Cheers,

Nice work on the 700, DebWenger! On average, it does seem that the Kaplan tests are tougher, so that's definitely a good sign. Keep in mind that it's unbelievably difficult for test-prep firms to perfectly copy the actual GMAT, so you can expect some variability from test to test -- which is why it's hard to say with a straight face that Kaplan tests are ALWAYS harder than other tests. Still a good sign though! And yes, using the tables in the back of the OG is probably the best way to translate the percentile into a raw section score.
Resetting the MGMAT tests is fine -- you'll see repeat questions, but that's probably not the end of the world. There's no point to uninstalling the GMATPrep software, though. If you retake those tests, you'll see some repeat questions, regardless of whether you uninstall the software or just retake the test. The questions will be drawn from the same bank, no matter what.
I hope this helps!

The OG questions in the first half of Quant Section look very easy. Don't think it's indicative of the difficulty level of CAT.
