Hi ! Wanna know which one is more affordable: GMAT prep software or simulations on veritas prep?
Because in the first i got a 490 and in the second i use to be on a range that goes between 580-620.
Thanks
:D

I used both the GMATPrep Software as well as Veritas Prep for my studying and found the questions on Veritas to be a little bit more difficult than some on GMATPrep. But, with that said, I think the Veritas tests are a great tool and will help you learn from your mistakes and score higher over time.
Since nobody actually knows the GMAC algorithm for scoring, all of the tests you take will NOT be perfect representations. However, people tend to think of the GMATPrep as the "most accurate" since it is developed by GMAC and likely contains the most similar algorithm to what it on the actual exam.
In terms of price, I believe the Veritas exams are $49 for 6 exams (free if you sign up for a class with them) and GMATPrep gives you 2 exams free with the software and then you can buy 2 additional exams for $50. I think both are a wise investment assuming you have the time to take practice exams.
If you are just starting your studying, I wouldn't look too much into the scores. Try to focus on areas that you are weak in and make sure you master the concepts (learning from your mistakes is the most important part of GMAT studying) and make sure that you make each test as realistic as possible (e.g. full length exam with AWA and IR sections). This way when you go to the test center on test day you will have the stamina to sit there for 4 hours straight.

Thank you so much. I asked because I found impossible that i answered to a 55% (of correct answers) but the GMAT software indicated me a percentile of 17% and it sounds really strange i think. So much difference between each other value.
