Hello all,

I have read quite a few posts that quote that GMATPrep tests are an accurate reflection of your true GMAT score, but I am supplementing those tests with PR tests (4 of them available online).

What is your opinion on how these compare with the actual GMAT. My area of challenge is the verbal section, and so would appreciate responses focussed on verbal if at all possible?

Thankyou!

I havent had any experience with PR tests but from what I hear they are the easiest of the lot. Even the problems in the PR book are considerably easier than those in OG, Kaplan etc. You can try Kaplan, MGMAT, OG etc. if you want harder practice tests.

In my experience the PR tests are actually right on par.

From my personal experience, I found the PR tests to be a bit simpler than the GMATPrepTest, but the end result - overall score was not that different. Only a 20 points difference between the two tests, PR was higher (680). Wondering if anybody else has had similar experiences too?
