Hi!
My test is on 17th June. From what I know giving a practice test 1 or 2 days before that GMAT is not a very good idea as it can affect you mentally ( if you don't score well) and can also wear you out. On the other hand, reviewing problem areas, strengths, and error logs seems to be a good idea.
But lately I have read posts in which people suggest trying out a practice test one or two days before the real thing. Should I really do that. If I score well it will be great but if don't I think it may affect my confidence. Besides, what's the point of a practice test when one doesn't even have sufficient time to work one the errors of that test?
What's your opinion on this?? should I do it or should I not??

Hi,
Different people have different opinion.
Reg the practice exams : You take GMAT Prep 2 days before the test and reviewing the test on that day is best idea. On the last day of your exam- if you want you can take or else just go through the flash cards, but never try new concepts or problems.
Some people take their GMAT Prep exam (if they have on free or retake the same GMAT Prep 1 or 2) on the last day, instead of taking it 2 days before exam.
They will take exam on the same timing as the official test. If you have exam at 9 AM then to have same routine you can take GMAT Prep on the day before exam.
If you feel, taking a new test will bring down your confidence. You can retake a test which you already completed (GMAT Prep, MGMAT etc) so that you will have boost in confidence as you may already know answers for few questions(do remember, you will see the inflated score).
All the best

Generally agree -- 2 days before the actual test -- but not the day before the test. You will need a good full day to relax and review your mistakes from that last test. You don't want to be all stressed out the night before from all the mistakes you made on the practice test that you psyche yourself out for the real thing.
