Well, I've booked my GMAT for about the end of January, and I've really just started hitting the prep. guides hard as of 2 days ago. Although, I must admit that for the past two weeks I did spend at least couple hours a week looking over the material. Anyway, if the practice tests are truly indicative of one's probable score, then it seems that I should be able to get a something in the low 700's. If this ends up being the case, then I'll be very pleased, however, I'm a little worried that the practice tests may not be that accurate? Any thoughts? BTW I'm using the ARCO book.

ARCO may be a little dangerous... a few people have indicated in our materials survey (see surveys) that their books are not very helpful.
Also, you can see reviews for the book in the books section.
I used arco and it was not very productive.
You can try PowerPrep (you can download it) and it will be pretty close (within 20-30 points, which is the standard deviation for a person on the GMAT)

Yeah... I noticed your survey and was a little surprised. I actually find the ARCO book quite useful and informative, but I'm just simply not sure about the accuracy of their practice tests i.e. based on my test results, it seems much easier to get over 700 than I had originally thought.
Anyway, I have the GMAT official powerprep software, and I'll probably pick up the Kaplan book in a week or two. Hopefully by the time I get through all of them I'll be perfectly ready.
BTW, congratulations on an excellent site, I'm sure you'll be getting many hits in the near future. Also, I noticed you did quite well on your GMAT....how long did you perpare for it?
