NEW Manhattan GMAT CAT

Question

As you may know, the mgmat exams are not CATs. They just came out with a CAT exam. I scored very poorly right/wrong ratio but pulled a 720. Just wondering what others may have scored.

Can you let us know where is it available/ from where can we get this?

kidderek · Answer

You have to buy one of the books and sign up at their website using a code that's in the book. It is more than worth it if you buy an $18 book b/c you get 3 nonCAT and 1 CAT.

I just finished one CAT. Maths is more complicate than GMATPrep, but verbal is not so much different. My score for Q is 61% V is 91% total 660. Normally, my quant scores in GMATPrep are 48-50. When I solved the quant problems, I did well at first (from my result sheet, I saw that I got 700-800 level questions). Then, I felt that the questions got more and more complicate to the point that it took me more than 2 minutes to solve each problem. Finally, I ran out of time and just filled in answers more than last 10 questions (which now are 500-600 level questions). My verbal scores from GMATPrep are around 42-45. Anyway, I think this CAT test is better than the former version since it is adaptive. :-D

I want to tell people who already had access to the practice center before this CAT test came out that you should try to log in and see if you can do the test, because I didn't buy it. I have had access to practice center because I bought the online test (3 tests, not adaptive) first, then bought a SC book. Yesterday, I logged in and saw that I also had additional access to the new CAT test. So, I think if you already had access, the you don't have to buy the new CAT. Hey, do you think that maths in this CAT is harder than GMATPrep?

There is not a doubt in my mind that the quant on mgmat CAT is harder than GMATPrep's. I couldn't answer #36 and never saw #37.

Hi guys,

I think the new CATS from Manhattan are decent, but pretty tough. Do you guys think these scores/difficulty are in line with Kaplan?

kidderek · Answer

It's tough, but the scoring is more forgiving than their non CAT's

karlfurt · Answer

I've just finished it 700(q43-v41). Math are horrible and I had to guess many because I was short on time. I think also that the score is majored compared to the non CAT tests.
I saw few questions in the verbal which were taken from previous tests(2 RC and 2-3 CR). Kidderek, what was your Q-V breakdown?

Ratio good/total : Q17/37!! V23/41 : really poor performance!

All,

I have been reviewing my scores for the NEW Manhattan GMAT CAT and it doesn't seem to be adaptive. For instance, the exam will continue to give me several 700 level questions even though I am getting them wrong, and will also give me a string of 500-600 questions when I am getting 4-5 in a row correct. Does anyone else see this? Is this how the real GMAT works? I though the test would adapt fairly quickly to each question.

kidderek · Answer

Q47(25/37) V42(29/41)

karlfurt · Answer

I ve seen the same. in CAT2 mgmat Quant, I have only 700-800 levels questions though I have 15 wrong and scored 49....
Whether it is it really adaptive, I am not sure...

CfaMiami · Answer

Yeah, I have taken 3 of the exams and Just came onto the GMAT Club to see whether this has been discussed. It's definitely not fully adaptive, but my concern is on the accuracy of the scores. I have scored a 740 all three times and I feel that this is WAY too high. I get about 20 of the Quant ones right and still get a scaled score of 43 (70%). It puts me in the 99% for verbal... Is it possible to get THAT many wrong in Quant and still get 43? I think the MGMAT alogorithm is screwed up.
