Not sure which kind of CAT you took . But older Kaplan CAT scores were very much skewed . You can google on KAplan CAT and will see that people who scored 700+ generally scored around 600-650 in Kaplan . But recently they have updated their scoring algorithim . You can also search for Kaplan CAT scoring in this forum as well .

Assuming you were giving CATs which used to come on older CDs and stuffs , i would not bother much about Kaplan score . Their Verbal is indeed very good for practice as far as CAT is concerned , especially their twisted RCs .Kaplan had the reputation of low scores earlier ,but they claim that as on date they have modified their scoring algorithim to be very close to real ones. Kaplan you can limit to practice but their scores you can discount


To know where you stand at this point , it makes best sense to give GMAT Prep , test from from actual GMAT makers. The score from here is said to the best among scores you can expect in actual exam.

Others can weigh in their opinions !

Hi there..thanks for the post.

You may be making the same mistake I made when I first started studying. You're two weeks out, do not go over any new material. Just reinforce strengths. Really attempt to do two problems of each problem type each day. For example, do two divisibility problems, do two distance rate and time, do two geometry, do two inequalities, do two quadratics, etc. Do this from today until like 2 days before the test. You will score the highest you can score with the current level you're, so if you feel that you are between 620-680, you should score a 680 if you do this. If you need a 700 plus, you may want to put the exam on hold.

hmm...that sounds about right..find my self being overwhelmed by the Kaplan strategies i just started on.probably too late to learn new tricks.

Thanks for that. will try and loook at anew study plan..questions of every type and practice tests..!

cheers
