GMAT experience from today July 31st 2006 [#permalink] New post   31 Jul 2006, 10:43
Folks,

I took the GMAT today.

I scored 670 which was below where I was hoping I'd be but I can't complain.

Quant Scaled Score 39 - 58 percentile
Verbal Scaled Score 41 - 93 percentile.

I think I just tricked myself out of the Quant. I kept thinking they are trying to trick me and bla bla bla and messed up.

I think I'll be registering again to take it in a few weeks after I get some quant practice in.

I saw a couple of questions straight out of the GMATPrep software.

I also though the plastic paper thing is not a big deal at all.

GMATprep is probably the closest thing to the real thing. I had scored a 710 and a 650 on GMATprep's tests.

Any advice from anyone in regards to how I can improve my quant score would be appreciated.

By the way, the analysis of an issue and argument essay's were from the list that is in the official guide.

That's good info. I'm definitely going to go over the questions from the GMATprep software in case any of them show up in the real thing.

The topics are supposed to be from the list itself (mba.com link here).
Did you assume something different?

I 2nd the opinion that all topics that are listed in the OG appear in real GMAT... however, I would not even try to go through them all... it really doesn't worth the effort :lol:
