Taking too many GMAT practice tests might be hurting your score. It’s one of the biggest red flags in test prep—and most students don’t realize it.
In this video, Erika Tyler-John, a 735 GMAT scorer and expert instructor with 10+ years of teaching experience and 4M+ YouTube views, answers a common question: How many practice tests should you actually take?
The short answer: for most students, around 6 tests is enough—and more is not better.
Erika explains why taking excessive practice tests is often a sign of ineffective prep. The real gains don’t come from test after test—they come from the review and targeted study that follow each one. She also breaks down why unofficial practice tests can be unreliable, often leading to misleading scores and poor expectations for test day.
You’ll learn how to use your practice tests strategically, how to get the most value from official exams, and what to do if you run out of tests. This includes how to retake exams effectively without inflating your score artificially.
If you want to make every practice test count—and avoid a mistake that quietly holds back your score—this video is essential.
