Question

Hello all,

As most of you are aware that the GMAC team has upgraded their digital GMAT Official practice experience post-February. I wanted to ask whether anyone knows if the question banks have also changed or they have the same question bank?

Unless you run out of them, always complete all the official practice exams first.

bb · Answer

The official tests are using official questions and official algorithm so they will always produce the most accurate result for estimating your score. Though it’s not perfect, it’s the most trustworthy.

However there’s not a lot of of them, you cannot take them in sections, and there are no explanations are in the lyrics so if you want to get a score estimate, the official tests are the best. If you want to practice and you’re not quite at the point of needing an accurate score estimate, you can use third-party tests.

I am consitently scoring between 665-685 on the practice exam tests by GMAT official site. 
1. How much can I expect in the final exam will it be less than this, comparable or more?
2. How can I improve Verbal section using trcks just enough to touch 695 or 705 in 7-8 days?

Hi Aditi_bihade,

Those are some really good scores, so you'll likely do well on the real test. Official practice tests can't simulate exam day pressure though, so try not to change your approach too much, and stick to a timing strategy you're comfortable with.

All the best.

Hi Aditi_bihade Official tests are of course more reliable, but they are expensive and they are limited in count. But GMAT club are really good ones in market after Official tests. The competition to GMAT Club tests is given by expert Global test and let me tell you that they have replicated Quant and DI very closely. I hope you have your answer somewhere in my comment.

You could access the list of tests from one of the links in my signature.

You are scoring well and you already have received appreciation for it. But I would like to know how many tests have you taken whose scores you just mentioned?

ALso, to answer your other question, generally students score the similar score or conservative score by 20 points so if you score is in range of 665 to 695, I would say your actual GMAT score may be in range 645-675 if you handle the test day pressure as well as you did while taking mock tests.

I have given 4 tests in total till now. Started off with 665 in first 2 tests then 675 in 3rd and 685 in the 4th. Any tips to handle test day pressure?
