710 in GMATPrep, 710 in Knewton, and then, 640 in KAPLAN. It was a shocker for me! Any idea what could be my actual GMAT score? I have it on 27th June 2011.
As I said, best measure is the MBA.com GMAT prep tests.
I finally got 740 (Q50, V40) in real GMAT! And this KAPLAN test was within 7 days of my real GMAT. So, surely I couldn't have improved a lot over a week! While the KAPLAN test was helpful, I still see no reason for demoralizing the students with such a low score. A difference of 100 points is no way justified.
But then again, probably KAPLAN gives you a low score so that they can fulfill the money-back guarantee that they'll increase your GMAT score by a huge number if you take their course.
But, Knewton also promises a 50 point increase or money-back guarantee and there I scored 710.
So, I'm not sure of the business strategy of KAPLAN!!
However, I would agree with KapTeacherEli that GMATPrep is the best indicator of your GMAT scores.
