I took the kaplan free test and scored a 700. Next day i took the economist gmat test and scored a dismal 620. Where am I heading??
Is the economist test more difficult than the gmat or is the kaplan test easier compared to the gmat??

Eeeesh. Hard to tell.
Sometimes it is due to some gaps in knowledge/certain areas and The conomist test may have gone in that direction. It is not that hard to mess up a test actually - I have been playing with CAT algorithm for a few months now with the new GMAT Club tests and I can tell you first that, a few wrong questions here and there will make a big difference with the adaptive system. (they are smart but also very judgmental). Final reason I can think of - seeing repeat questions. Did you have any in your Kaplan tests?
I would not take it too hard to your heart and would average for now - 660. You can take other tests and see where you fit in with greater accuracy. However, if you are not quite done with your prep, there is not a ton of reason to keep taking CAT's - they will only mislead you.

Thanks for the answer.
I took the first gmat prep exam 2 months ago when i hadn't started my preparation for the gmat and scored a 590 (i didn't even know what to expect from the exam). I took it again yesterday and got a 690. I have my exam on 18th. i want to touch 700. What should i be doing??
