MGMAT 460 in Practice Test Score

by PankajRai » Mon Jun 06, 2011 10:17 am
I wrote a test of MGMAT and scored 460. I have taken a GMAT date for June 24th 2011.
Do you guys think I will be able to crack the magical 700+ score in real GMAT? Ofcourse I will rewrite the several MGMAT tests in between, to see the performance?

Hi PankajRai!

Without knowing more about your first score (had you done any studying before the practice test, how was your timing, were you able to answer every question in time, was the score VERY lopsided - very high quant but very low verbal, did you have only 1-2 weak areas or were there issues across topics and problem types, what type of time per day/per week have you dedicated to study and do you plan to dedicate to study, etc) it is hard to give much detailed feedback, BUT..

Be warned - a move from a 460 to a 700+ score in just 3 weeks is extraordinarily unlikely. I tell most of my students that the score they see on practice exams roughly 2 weeks out from the exam is essentially the score they will get on test day (from that point it is time to tweak but not completely re-write your abilities)

But I definitely wish you the Best of Luck with your studies!!

Hi Whitney,
Thanks for reply....I wrote my first test from 800score.com, I scored 360. Second from the same source scored 420, also third from the 800score and got 570(last week). While apearing for fourh test from 800score, I found the questions are repitetive there, I left 800score. And thought of taking MGMAT tests, which are supposed to be fresh and based on same alogorithms as real GMAT.
I did not have attempt to write the Essays yet.

I have covered all the topics as study point of view and practising the question now from OG 12. At the same time, testing my progress through these tests. My score are higher in Maths but not so good in verbals.
Please advice.
