Hi nightrunner19, The Diagnostic Test in the OG is NOT a great way to assess your readiness to face the Official GMAT.

Thanks for the advice. I plan on taking a practice GMAT this weekend to see where I'm at. I've scored in the 93rd percentile on the LSAT, but feel like I'm a little beat weak on math...I guess we'll see! I'm looking to get into a European program with a full scholarship so I need at least a 700 to m...
