Hi there
i have recently passed prep-test #1. Afterwards, i uninstalled the application and re-installed.
For the first time i opened the app, there was no score history. So far, so good. I shut down the app.
Today i opened the app to take prep-test #1 again and there is the score of my first test back again.
I tried to find and delete the exam-folder as it is recommended, but i didnt find it, although i marked the option "view hidden folders". There is no folder named "Exams" or a file named "practice log 1.dat"...
Could you help me?
I am using Win10 and the latest version of GMATPrep v2-

Hi Dansaw,
By retaking a CAT that you've already taken, you are likely to see questions that you've already answered. When you take a CAT, if your goal is to receive a realistic score assessment, then you really have to be strict about HOW you take the CAT. The more the 'CAT-taking event' deviates from what you'll face on Test Day, the more likely the score is to be inaccurate (and in most cases, that means "inflated"). As such, you should make sure to take a NEW CAT each time, with the Essay/IR sections, away from your home, at the same time of day as your Official GMAT, etc.
1) Have you taken any CATs since you posted back in August? How have you scored (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Thanks for your answer.
I am aware that the predictable value of a CAT taken again is not as good as a new, never taken one.
But my question was, how can I find the exam folder to reset the software?
Is it possible that the latest version does not offer the chance to delete the exam folder by hiding it in a unknown directory?
Yes, sure I did another CAT.
I started my preps with SC a few weeks ago, and a rough overview of CR. But i had to interrupt my preps for 2 weeks because of private purposes.
But all in all, solely SC preps pushed my score to 500 (33/23). So, I think my target score of 600-610 (44/29) is in a tangible range
