Is anybody else puzzled by Manhattan CATs? I scored a 740 (43 Q, 51 V) on my first MGMAT CAT, but I am definitely not happy. Why? Well because I got 20 questions wrong on my quant! And 5 out of the first 10 wrong! And I still got a 43, which is quite surprising. In the real GMAT or GMAT Prep, I am sure that getting this many wrong will get you no more than a 35 on quant.
Also, on verbal, I got 9 or 10 wrong! How is it possible that I get a 51? On the real GMAT or GMATPrep that would get you no higher than a 42-43 probably.
So in conclusion I have 2 issues with Manhattan CATs:
1) The quant is extremely hard, much harder than GMATPrep. I am lucky to even get 17 problems right, I think a lot of them were lucky guesses. I think I honestly knew how to do no more than 13 or 14 of the quant problems. Is it even worthwhile to do something that much harder than the real one? Will it help or would it just be a waste of time?
2) With the extermely generous scoring, is it even close to being an accurate prediction of what you will get in the real test? I need more practice CATs, and I heard good stuff about Manhattan so I bought it. But it's hard to imagine that the scores would be accurate! I have already done GMATPrep several times (scoring 630-670) so I need more pratice elsewhere. Any ideas?

I agree that MGMAT CATs' scoring maybe not accurate. I also noticed a big range in my score. I do like the problems they have in there since I think they the closest (in terms of style) to the real thing.
And you right. The questions in the quant section are waaaaay to hard to be on the real thing. But they are good practice and I try to finish them under 2 minutes -- which is extremely difficult.
The verbal section is fairly close to GMATprep and the real thing. I honestly think that if you have exhausted OG and GMATPrep, MGMAT would be the way to go. Dont think too much about the scores but focus more on timing the challenging problems.
