I just finished my UPT about an hour ago. I was able to see a typical scoring report, but do not see any scaled scores like I would for other CATs in the "My Scores" section. Is this normal? I did see percentiles and an overall score but no raw scaled scores. Is there any way to figure out what my scaled scores would have been?

I must say Kaplan's methods are awesome.

Thanks!

Hi,

Glad that you found the UPT and the Kaplan prep helpful. You should be able to view your UPT score and full results and analysis online through your Smart Reports, just as you did for all of your other exams. You can access Smart Reports through the "My toolbox" section of your online syllabus, and it will allow you to analyze any individual test, as well as assess your performance cumulatively-- pointing out your overall strengths and weaknesses, and giving you recommendations on assignments to do next, based on how you do on each test.

Hope that helps!

UPT = ultimate practice test. Kaplan's classes include a practice test at a test center. Give you a feel of test day environment, etc.

The UPT is a Kaplan practice test. Like all of our practice tests, it tests all of your skills, quantitative and verbal, and gives you a representative score with which to measure your progress.

However, the UPT is taking at the same location that students are taking the actual GMAT--and ideally, the same one you will take yours. In this way, students who have never taken the test can experience filling out all the forms, get a first-hand experience with the locker system, practice writing on spiral-bound laminated sheets, work in a room with other test takers, and generally experience anything and everything about the test. At Kaplan, we don't want there to be any surprises for any of our students on test day!
