Can someone suggest some tests that I can use for my prep?

Question

I have to retake my exam again in two weeks, and I have exhausted all the tests from GMATPrep and Manhattan Prep (during the first round of preparation). I need suggestions on what other tests I can use. I only need one or two test. Thank you in advance!

manhattan prep test are awesome
GMAT official tests are best.

I dont think you need a third test but gmatclub tests can be good as well

Thank you! But I have a concern here - wouldn't reseting the test inflate my score due to repeat questions?

Hi Ash3030,

Each CAT/mock is really a 'measuring device' - when used correctly, it will give you a realistic score and help define your strengths and weaknesses, but it will NOT help you to fix any of those weaknesses. To raise your scores, you have to learn the necessary Tactics and put in the proper practice and repetitions. The CAT will show you whether your studies are helping you to improve or not. By extension, since you are retaking the GMAT in a couple of weeks, if you scored notably lower than your Goal Score on your prior attempt, then you will almost certainly need to do far more than just take another couple of CATs to improve your overall skills.

Before I can offer you any additional advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) On what date(s) have you taken the Official GMAT and how did you score on each attempt (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
2) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
3) What study materials have you used so far? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
4) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?

Goals:
5) What is your overall goal score?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

Hi Ash3030,

Did you repeat the two free official practice exams?

A3030 · Answer

Hi  EMPOWERgmatRichC  !
Thank you for such a detailed reply! I completely agree with you that I will need to do more than just take a couple of CATs. I have kept a detailed error log and will be working on my weak areas about 2 hours a day every weekday and 4-5 hours every weekend. But I do need a test to practice 3-4 days before the actual test.

Is there anything you would suggest I do in the next two weeks? I am targeting a score of 750 and above. I will be taking the test again on the 23rd. Thanks again!

Hi  Ash3030 ,

Yes, it almost certainly would, but there aren't too many good options available. The final call on the trade-offs is yours.

I need suggestions on what other tests I can use. I only need one or two test.

There is the mock in the Official-Guide book you may be able to leverage. If you gave Official Mock 1 quite a while back when you were significantly less prepared, you may find some value in retaking it as well.

A3030 · Answer

GmatTutorKnight  I took the repeat tests in the month of May. I have utilized all the other official resources as well. I guess my best bet it to just reset the MGMATs.

A3030 · Answer

AjiteshArun  I guess you are right! Thanks!

ScottTargetTestPrep · Answer

Honestly, you have taken a ton of tests. I don't think you need to take more...

ScottTargetTestPrep  I was just wondering if I need to take one practice test just to get into the exam mindset. I could just do some practice sets instead. Thank you for all the help!
