800score.com tests the hardest?

by victory2g » Sun Apr 27, 2008 1:14 pm
All,

I've searched the forum and haven't been able to find if this question has been answered:

Have you all found 800score.com's math sections to be outrageously difficult? I've taken practice CATs from: Princeton, Veritas, Thompson/Arco, and the first GMATPrep, as well as 800score.com.

I usually score between 47-52 scaled score in the quant section, but on 800score, i consistently am forced to guess on the last 8 or so questions, and score in the range of 37-41. Has anyone else found this to be the case?

I am even able to cruise through most of the problems on even the Kaplan800 advanced student magth questions. 800score.com math sections tend to be a confidence shaker for me, and I have the exam coming up a week from Monday!

Thanks,
V

No, 800score.com doesn't have the most difficult practice tests. Kaplan's are (in my opinion) the toughest. I didn't care for the 800score.com questions in practice test format. I didn't think they were close enough to the GMATprep questions (which I believe are the closest to the real thing for obvious reasons). I was really irritated doing the 800score.com practice tests.

That being said, I think the 800score.com tests are good for working problems, but not as a simulated test. Be sure to check out their review material. I found that helpful. They have an extensive section on probability among other topics. Good luck!

Every post I've read about the 800score.com tests said NOT to do them, that they're nothing like the real thing. So I wouldn't bother.

Good Tests. May be of same difficulty as MGMAT.
But harder than GMATPrep.
