Hi nailgmat2015,

You clearly have the ability to score at a high level, but most of your practice CATs were incomplete Tests, so we don't know if you have the necessary endurance and ability to overcome fatigue that you'll need to score at a high level on Test Day. As such, for the rest of your studies, you really should plan to take FULL-LENGTH CATs each time.

Makes sense. Thanks rich.

I will try to take FULL-LENGTH CATs now. :)

There are so many options available. Which one do you recommend? I will go by your advice.

Hi nailgmat2015,

The GMAC CATs are the most realistic ones available, so if you haven't used the 2nd free CAT yet, then I suggest that you use that one. There are also 2 additional ones that you can purchase with the Exam Pack. You can also purchase 'blocks' of CATs from MGMAT, Veritas or Kaplan. As long as you're taking the FULL CAT, and doing so under realistic conditions, then the score results from any of these Exams should provide a reasonable assessment of your skills.

Thanks for your inputs Rich.

Per your suggestion, I bought GMAT exam pack and prep test 3 and 4. Will be taking GMAT PREP practice exam 2 soon now.

Cheers

Hi nailgmat2015,

You're made a smart choice. That next set of scores from GMAT CAT2 will help to better define your current strengths and weaknesses and we can use that data to figure out what you need to focus on as you continue to study.
