It just got more interesting.

I just finished the free Kaplan Practice Test and got 700 (Q:44, V:39). I am confused. The test was way easier than any other practice test that I have taken so far. I finished Quant in 53min and Verbal in 58min. I got 5 questions wrong on Q and 10 wrong on V (as opposed to 10 wrong on GMATPrep Quant where I got 49, and 15 wrong on GMATPrep Verbal where I got 35).

As for Princeton Review - I am told the Math is nowhere close to the real GMAT.

Any comments?
Thanks

Based on the Score Estimater on a certain site, I saw that the 800 score tests are supposed to be close to the real tests. So I bought 5 tests from 800 score . com. Till now I had been scoring very well in other tests such as Kaplan (670), Princeton (720), GMATPrep (770). But I found out that I was scoring only 660 around in tests from 800 score . com. The questions in Math are simply too tough given the time constraints. This is my last week. Someone had posted that 800score are a bit easier. I think that person was probably referring to the free ones and not the paid ones. DO NOT BUY 800 SCORE . COM TESTS!!!

I'm interested in your basis for this statement. We are not to buy them because they are hard?

Kaplan - tough and not reflective (according to the forum)

Princeton Review - Math super easy, Verbal is somewhat tricky and the answers aren't the best chosen (I disagreed with many)

MGMAT - math super hard, Verbal very similar, test score in the end very similar to final test score

GMATPrep - This is the REAL thing, so it is probably the most accurate. I heard the math isn't as hard as the real thing, but your score will most likely be.

PowerPrep - old GMATPrep by ETS. Math was a lot easier (I finished with 10 minutes to spare and got only 2 wrong - Q50). Verbal was about the same as GMATPrep/OG

Those are my contributions to this thread ;)
