I started lightly studying for the test about 3 weeks ago, and my practice test scores were as follows:

1.) April 18th-ish, before any studying:

GmatPrep 1: 670 - I didn't write down the scaled scores or percentages.

2.) April 26th, after completing the OG11 diagnostic test, OG11 math review, and completing about 150 problems in the OG11 book:

GMAT PowerPrep 1: 690 (92%) - 45Q (82%) - 38V (84%)

3.) Today! After doing 40 more problems from OG11 and studying the flashcards:

GMAT PowerPrep 2: 740 (98%) - 49Q (93%) - 44Q (97%)

I'm so excited about my score, especially since my test is in two days (Monday May 4th). Considering that my goal is 650+ I think I'll be happy on test day, but here are my questions:

a.) Should I take the GMATPrep 2 test tomorrow evening? Or will that throw me off my game?

b.) Is GMAT PowerPrep easier than either/both GMATPrep and the official actual test?

c.) What else should I do to maintain this kind of score?

d.) Based on these scores, what will my range be? Everyone says that we tend to score within 50 point of our practice scores, so I guess my range would be 620-790? Or would it be the 50 + or - range from the average?

I know, it really doesn't matter THAT much whether my score is 690 or 740 or whatever, but I just need to be reassured that I'm on a steady upward climb and not simply a lucky boost!

Don't even think about taking another test. Take the day off tomorrow and rest your brain. Any additional "cramming" that you do will not have any significant (or any) impact on you score. Go into your test feeling positive and rock it!
