I'm giving GMAT for the 2nd time after a 11 months , but I see that the same 2 Official GMAT practice tests are there.
I'm not getting the option to give tests 3 & 4 which has different questions, Do we not get access to different mock tests when we retake the exam ?
I'm actually getting the same questions as i got earlier.
Thanks in advance for the help

Hi debsan.
To access the other four official practice tests, you have to purchase them here. https://www.mba.com/exam-prep

Hi Deb,
The two free CATs/mocks available from GMAC (at www.mba.com) are the same two CATs that you've already taken (and to answer your immediate question - NO, you do not receive two brand new free CATs when you choose to retest). While the most realistic CATs available are the 6 from GMAC, retaking a CAT that you've already taken is NOT a realistic way to assess your skills - since you will likely see some 'repeat' questions that you have already faced. Unfortunately, seeing even a couple of repeats can 'throw off' the Scoring Algorithm and impact your pacing, energy levels, fatigue, etc. (meaning that they would likely all appear to be better than they actually are). Thankfully, the CATs from Kaplan, MGMAT and Veritas are all 'close enough' to the real thing that they will provide you with a relatively realistic score assessment (assuming that you correctly take the CAT in a realistic fashion that matches the parameters that you will face when you take the Official GMAT) - so you can use any NEW CATs from any of those sources during this next phase of your studies.
Since you have an Official GMAT Score listed in your profile, I assume that you've put in some significant study time already. Before I can offer you any additional advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) When did you take your Official GMAT?
2) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
3) What study materials have you used so far? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
4) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
5) What is your overall goal score?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
If you took your Official GMAT at a Test Center, then you might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.
