Hi! I took Kaplan's GMAT practice test one and scored 700. I think the score is exaggerated and I dont deserve it specially without any preparation. I took this test to know about GMAT's pattern.
I do not have individual scores to compare but I have percentage of questions which are correct. They are as follows :
IR : 33%
Quant : 57%
Verbal : 49%
I will start with the review now. But I really want to know whether this score translates to a 700 score in actual GMAT.
Thanks for your help!

Hi AJlnmiit,
You pose some good questions. Maybe you're a naturally strong Test Taker, but maybe this practice CAT didn't function correctly. Based on the percentages, I'd be suspicious too, but we don't know for sure either way yet. You might consider taking another CAT (from another source) to see how you score. With that extra data, you'll have a basis for comparison.
When it comes to taking a practice CAT in the future, you're going to want to emphasize the "realism" of the experience. Taking a FULL-length practice CAT, under "test-like" conditions, is really the only way to assess your overall skills and get an approximation for how you might score on the Official GMAT. To that end, don't skip sections (take the Essay and IR sections), don't do anything that would be considered unrealistic (pausing the Test, listening to music, eating/drinking during the Test, etc.) and take the CAT at the same time as your Official GMAT.

Your best bet will be to take a full length practice test from GMATPrep -- ideally one in the beginning and one towards the end of your studies.
if you've already taken those or if you want an additional practice test, you may find the GMAT Pill Practice Test as a useful resource for your studies: www.gmatpill.com/gmat-practice-test/practice-test
