5. Error Log
   Think of the error log as a list of problems you definitely want to go over in your final week of prep.
   
   • Questions you got wrong
   • Questions you got right,but with some divine intervention.
     (guessing)
   • Questions you got wrong in a timed environment. <-- Very very important
   
   For each of the above categories, make sure to note down the software/book in which the problem was there and of course the problem number. This list, IF done properly, will be the BEST prep material you will ever find because its customized to help you on your weak areas. Work on this LIST in your final two weeks along with the official guide.
   
   
   • Make sure you practice in a timed environment whenever possible.
   • Keep a spreadsheet and categorize your errors. at the end of every week, you will see a trend in your errors. analyze, write down a strategy to eliminate and stick to it.
     
     Try out the Magoosh GMAT Companion for the Official Guide:
     GMAT Official Guide (2017) Companion
     GMAT Official Guide (2016) Companion
     
     
   • The idea is that you should never make the same mistake twice Prepping for long hours will NOT make any sense if we keep repeating the same mistakes over and over.Use all the advantage you can. and eliminating silly errors is definitely possible.
   
   
   
6. GMAT Calendar
   [Download Sample1 | Sample 2]
   A new little tool one of the members developed to keep them honest and realistic about the prep.

Another great collection of resources. I'm downloading lots of these tools as of now and may consider getting the iPhone app as well.

From what I've heard and seen, the GMAT calculator is fairly accurate. The challenge lies in the fact that you can change your score prediction with your "ability under pressure" and that even your practice tests aren't always accurate. But since the calc has been out, there has been a huge update of data that has been put into the sytem by users just like yourself, and I personally believe it has become even more accurate over the past few months (especially with Kaplan). It guessed within 10 pts of my actual score compared to my final practice test with Kaplan.

For the most accurate prediction of test day score, I would take the GMATprep tests from mba.com. They use the real GMAT algo. But obviously you have to set aside 3.5 hours. But if you are looking for a solid guestimate, probably within plus or minus 30pts, the GMAT calc is awesome! A great tool, and something unique to the GMATclub

Good luck to you!

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

Very nice set of tools.

You mean the first MGMAT's test is much harder than the other 5 and therefore incorrectly reports the score? (MGMAT's issue) Thus you are suggesting that we should estimate based on each individual MGMAT test (Test 1, test 2, test 3, test 4, test 5, and test 6) - do i understand you correctly?

I understand you now.

I think MGMAT aims to approach and have their score as close as possible to the real GMAT.

As to the GMAT Score calculator, it all depends on the data that is given/input into it. It is a very fancy formula but it calculates the results based on the reports from users and that's the result, based on which.... it is not much harder than then GMAT and is about 10 points below....

I am having issues while using the Forum Timer / workbook.

The Quant prblms I solve are not being updated, only the Verbal problms I solve get updated.

Has anyone else faced this issue?

Thanks
