So I've been preparing for the GMAT since the last 4 weeks or so after taking a diagnostic test on which I scored a 600. I decided to focus on prepping for the verbal section first, since I'm not a native english speaker and have been using
the official guide plus manhattan strategy guides to prepare for the same.
A couple days back I decided to practice questions in a similar setting as the real exam and so I solved the 45 free GMATPrep Verbal practice questions for the first time and got 87% of the questions correct (avg. time per question 1 min 44 secs, scored 100% CR questions correct).
Having exhausted free question resources, I turned to VeritasPrep FREE practice questions, however, my accuracy with these questions has dropped to 30-35% (even at CR) and I can't help but question the quality and intent of this free question bank. Questions seem ridiculously ambiguous, almost like the sole purpose of the FREE QB is to scare people and rope them into purchasing their course.
Hi,
There is difference between official and Veritas/Manhattan and other prep companies who have their own content
A 650 GMAT score in Veritas/Manhattan mocks is equivalent to a 730/740 official GMAT score. So, yes there Is a difference
All companies are here to make money only. So, it’s not fair to point out any company in particular.
Coming to your material for verbal. If you have exhausted
Official guide, start doing Verbal review. You have an additional 350+ official questions.
Recently, GMAT has launched advanced material for GMAT (tough questions), you can try that, though they are tough they will be in sync with the type of GMAT questions.
And lastly, you can also practise
OG removed questions from previous versions which will be available from GMATCLUB. This should cover the material for your exam.
All the Best.
