Hi all,
I am having a little difficulty understanding what my current quant score out 51 would be if I were to take the official test today. Here are all scores to date:
1. MGMAT (free): Q40 (2 days ago; August 5) (no repeated questions)
2. GMAT Official Practice Test 2: Q47 (2 weeks ago; July 27) (had already seen 3 questions)
3. GMAT Official Practice Test 1: Q48 (3 weeks ago; July 17) (had already seen 6 questions)
4. GMAT Club test (free) : Q44 (4 weeks ago; July 07) (no repeated questions)
5. GMAT Practice Test 2: Q35 (8 weeks ago; June 18) (no repeated questions)
6. GMAT Practice Test 1 (diagnostic): Q39 (9 weeks ago; June 11) (no repeated questions)
I would like to hear other people's experiences with MGMAT and GMAT Club tests. I just want a rough estimate.

Hi. Obviously I have a bias towards GMAT Club Tests and no scoring is perfect but I feel like GMAT Club Tests have landed perfectly between your Manhattan score and your GMAT prep score 😂
Getting even a handful of questions that are familiar can have a meaningful impact on your score. This may be from saving time or getting more confident or variety of other reasons. Theoretically, seeing repeat questions should be downplayed by the adaptive algorithm but getting extra time is a tangible benefit that the adaptive algorithm cannot account for. You could minimize the impact of repeat questions by making sure that you spend two minutes on that question and you don’t get the time benefit from it.
Several people did report over the years that the Manhattan Quant side of things tends to be more rigorous and more demanding than the official GMAT and so your Q 40 can probably translate into a higher score on the test day, potentially Q 44.
Keep in mind that there is a variance in all tests including official and unofficial and that your scores can fluctuate by a few points here and there. It depends on the material tested as well as your personal performance. I would guess you were between 44 and 46 now. 🤷♂️
My best guess. For what it’s worth.
PS. GMAT Club tests have tricky and challenging questions but our scoring algorithm adjusts for that

hi BB,
Thank you so much for the quick response. While I did 'remember' the questions, I did not remember the answers to the questions. I had to do all the work from scratch to get to the answers and therefore spent enough time on those questions. I usually never remember the exact answers to questions because after getting them incorrect I only focus on understanding the method.
I had a similar figure in mind. Unfortunately, that is not enough. I am looking at Q47 at the bare minimum because Verbal is a challenge for me. Hope to get more points and kudos so that I can unlock Club tests
