Hello Expert Members,
I will be starting my preparation in the next 3 days (1st Nov) and finish by 1st Feb, 2013.
As a pre-requisite, I have all the 8
MGMAT Strategy Guides, OG13,
OG Verbal and
OG Quant as of now. I have spent a couple of days at this forum and have been motivated, guided and duly impressed by others. Thanks for all of that
Now, my plan is to give the first 4-5 days to go over the basic materials and understand the pattern of the test. After that I would like to give a free test to know where I stand. As I understand, the
2 free MGMAT tests are the closest to real GMAT so I would not like to waste them when I am not totally done with my prep.
Can someone please suggest which is the best free test to begin with.
Please bear with my ignorance.
I think you meant GMATPREP tests from mba.com. These 2 free GMATPREP tests are closest to real GMAT as these have real GMAT retired questions and same scoring logic.
having said that, lot of people recommend 'wasting' one of these at the start to check ur current level and 'using' second one, at the end, before the exam to give u most realistic practice.
However, if you do not want to waste one of ur CATs, you can use diagnostic test available in
OG. That should be a pretty decent alternative to start with.
