I have a good amount of CATs I've collected as a result of buying study resources. Here is a list of the practice tests I have at my disposal:
* Kaplan GMAT 2015 Premier Book - 6
* MGMAT Sixth Edition Volume - 6
* GMAT Prep (Free) - 2
How can I use these 14 tests effectively in 3 months time? I'm planning on taking my first one next Saturday and then another one every Saturday after that. Are there tests I should use first? Should I mix them? Save the better tests for when it gets closer to taking the real thing? I would love some insight.
FYI - I've already taken the OG diagnostics test (the results are in my signature). I am using Magoosh's 3-month plan and supplementing it with the OG, MGMAT 6th edition, and a subscription to the Economist magazine (verbal practice). I plan to take the GMAT on April 9th, so I know I will use at least 10 tests (one every Saturday) until then.
Thank you!

Hi ehoustman,
Since you've done some work already, you really should take a FULL-LENGTH CAT (including the Essay and IR sections), so that you can establish a 'baseline score' and better define your current strengths and weaknesses. Once you have that score, you should post back here.
Your goal should NOT be to complete all of those CATs before your Official Test Date. In the event that you take the GMAT a second time, you would need some 'fresh' practice materials (so burning through all of those CATs would hinder any additional prep that you might need to do). Since you're still in the early stages of your studies, you also don't need to take a CAT each week. In general, taking a FULL CAT, under realistic conditions, every 1-2 weeks is a good idea (and taking 1 per week as you get closer to your Official Test Date is advisable). Right now, your emphasis should be on your studies - gaining knowledge, practicing Tactics, honing your skills, etc.

14 tests are too many to take. I would advice against it. The tests are used to prepare you for the actual GMAT test and not just tell you your current standing.
You should not take a test untill you finish reading about 50% of the concepts that are tested on the GMAT.
Also, the first test should be the GMAT Prep CAT. Make sure that you take all the tests along with the AWA and the IR sections, so that you are able to train your body and mind for the test.
As an addition to your test bank, I would recommend you to buy the Exam Pack1 from mba.com that contains 2 additional official tests.
You should pay most attention to these ones. May be take 1 after sometime and then keep the rest of the three for the last month, when you have completed all the concepts.
Also, along with the tests make sure that you complete the Official Guides too. This will give you the much needed practice from the Official Sources.
