GMAT Exam Pack 1

Question

Dear all,

I already bought and used the two GMAT practice exams from GMATPrep Exam Pack 1.

Perhaps a stupid question, but if order this pack again, will I receive the same question base and thus exams as I did the first time?

If so, it would be very redundant to order the pack again.

Kind regards,
Michiel

Yes, you will end up getting the same question bank and thus exams all over again. Do not repurchase the same exam pack.

I was about to ask a similar question, so I'll just put it here.

mba.com sells the "GMATPrep Question Pack 1" with additional questions. If one has taken all four CATs already, would the Question Pack allow a CAT retake with new questions?

ENGRTOMBA2018 · Answer

Question pack is only a question bank and these questions do not let you create another mock. Although, you can create "mini mocks" for yourself based on dabral 's suggestion at https://www.gmatquantum.com/faq/gmatprep ... -of-t.html You wont be able to get a consolidated score but you do get good practice from retired GMAT questions.

Thanks!

Is there any way to estimate a score? For example, with that distribution of questions, would getting 30 out of 37 Q's be close to a Q47 or Q48? And 35 out of 41 verbal questions approximately a V40-42?

Also, why is there an even distribution of PS and DS when the Quant should be about 60% DS? Similarly for Verbal, shouldn't there be more SC than others?

Would the paper tests be better practice?

ENGRTOMBA2018 · Answer

I would not recommend doing that. Try to solve a mixture of easy, medium and hard questions and under timed conditions. These mini mocks are just to let you do timed practice, make you undertsand how the various sections will be worded officially and nothing more. Consolidated scores depend on may different factors in what position was that particular question, did you make a string of incorrect answers, what was the difficulty of that question etc in order to determine what score you should be getting.

I realize that the real algorithm is complicated but there must be  some  sense to it. Getting every quant question correct will NOT be a Q30, obviously. And I'd bet that getting 36/37 Q's right is a lot closer to a Q50 than a Q40. We should take estimates with a grain of salt, but we can certainly do better than, "no clue."

FWIW, I think getting around 80% right on the paper tests results in a 700, maybe >95% is a 760+. With a balance of Easy-Medium-Hard I would think that would still be roughly true. Of course, you can make the quiz only Medium-Hard if you're already above average and wouldn't see the Easy stuff on a CAT.

A peson should be humble enough to accept someone else's response than being arrogant to scoff off the given suggestion. If you feel comfortable with your "sense" , go for it.
