I'm a little confused about the tests included in the Kaplan GMAT Premier 2011 book. The back of the book clearly states that the Online Companion includes 5 computer-adaptive tests. In the Online Companion site there are 6 Practice Tests listed and a Diagnostic Test. The Diagnostic Test is obviously a linear test. Practice Test 1 is only avaliable in the book, which makes it also a linear test. Practice Tests 2 to 6 are available in the website, so I thought those would be the 5 CATs promised.
However, I just did Practice Test 2 and the questions were grouped, in the quant section the PS questions appeared first and then the DS questions, the same happened in the verbal section. There was no AWA. Then, in the My Scores tab the test I just did is listed as a linear test, and the CATs section contains only 4 Practice Tests (from 3 to 6).
So what kind of test did I do? Are they giving me 4 CATs instead of 5?

Hi victorxman,
Sorry for the slow response, I've been away for a bit.
I'm pretty sure there should be 5 CATs, so if practice test 2 looked like that, it's not what I would have expected. However, the material associated with our published books are handled by a different division of Kaplan than the classroom classes I teach, so I'm not as familiar with it as I could be. An email to [email protected] should clear this up, however; PM me if it doesn't.
Thanks for choosing Kaplan!

Are these Kaplan Premier online tests adaptive? Note: the "linear" aspect made it hard to tell. I feel like the scoring was on the low side. Has anyone else felt the same way?
btw, I took a free Kaplan test the other day that was more traditional, and likely scored more appropriately.
