Hi Guys,
I have completed my on-demand interact course with Manhattan and have been giving tests, reviewing my answers, and following the cycle. However, one persistent problem has been that I am able to solve all the 700-800 questions while "reviewing them post the test", in the 2 - 3 minute frame, but while taking the test I somehow keep messing it up.
My most recent test was my MPREP CAT 5 - 660 (Q 46 V 34). I solved all my incorrect questions later and got 80% of them right within the time frame. I don't know what the problem is. I had a timing problem initially, but I have sorted it out with the Yellow scratchpad technique. Do you think that this is happening because of my timing anxiety? If I miss every 4th question on the scratch pad for which I run out of time, but try to do all the other questions correctly, how badly will it affect my score? Is there any other strategy you can think of?
I am taking the test on 7th March. Would love to get your reply at the earliest.
Cheers,
Chaitali.
P.S. this is my Quant overview from the test :

Hi Chaitali,
From your profile, you already appear to have an Official Score of 730/Q49 - which is an outstanding performance (it's well above the 90th percentile overall). Is that an Official Score or a practice CAT score (and if it's Official, then why are you retaking the GMAT?)?
The most realistic CATs available are the 6 from GMAC (the 2 free CATs, and each of the 2 that come with Exam Pack 1 and Exam Pack 2), so it would be useful to know how you performed on one of those CATS. Have you taken all of those already?
