I ended up taking a lot of
MGMAT and GMATPrep CATs in the 2 weeks leading up to the exam. This included some GMATPrep repeats. Doing a lot of these led to an efficient timing strategy, and definitely helped raised my final score.
My observation is that
MGMAT tests are a notch harder than the real thing (it is reasonable to expect a score of atleast 20 points higher on the real test). Their Math can be rather long, and verbal is very specific on choices. In my experience, GMATPreps (do them end-to-end with the AWA atleast a couple times, for best results) offer a more realistic score. But just doing them is not sufficient. For all questions that you get wrong, search them up on
MGMAT's site or on this forum, and clearly understand incorrect answers.
incognito1 , thanks for your reply. I am planning to take at least 3 Gpreps and at least 4
MGMAT CATs. All end to end.
1) Has the GMAT become tougher than the GMATPrep ?
2) Is there a document or a list of all GMATPrep questions ? For practice of course.
3) I am particularly weak in SC (as many other non-natives), what should I do to up my verbal score esp. on SC front.
4) Quant, I am on lower 40s and I think doing GMATCLUB challenges is not advisable for low scorers; does it help ?
5) Am I asking too many questions ?
