GMAT Strategy

I started my prep in the beginning of April and have been taking CATs every 2 weeks.

Here are my MGMAT CAT scores so far:
CAT #1 640 (Q43 V34)
CAT #2 670 (Q44 V37)
CAT #3 700 (Q47 V39)
CAT #4 750 (Q48 V45)
CAT #5 750 (Q48 V44)

I wanted to know how representative MGMAT scores are of my ability to do well on the GMAT. I have been reading debriefs and noticed that most people receive similar (or better) scores than MGMAT CATs. But I have also seen some people do a lot worse on the actual test.

I am very happy about the improvement I made on my MGMAT CATs but I am starting to get nervous as the exam is only 1 week away. I saved GMAT PREPs for the last week and plan to take them on Monday and Thursday (2 days before the exam). I also purchased the GMAT FOCUS and received 46-50 on the 2 quizzes I took.

Also do you have any suggestions for the last week before the test?

Thank you for your help!

Is there a reason you're holding off on taking the GMATprep tests? Theres no real point in taking both right before you take the actual exam imo. I'd suggest taking one of the gmatprep test now, then take the second one later.

The GMAT prep tests are the most reflective of what you'll actually get.

I think your plan is fine. Your GMATPrep scores will definitely be more accurate, but I don't think there's any harm in the approach you've taken so far. As long as you're carefully reviewing your tests and working on weak areas, you're good.

Thank you so much for your replies! This forum is awesome!!

Dam! If you're scoring in the 700s on the MGMAT cats, you'll get an amazing score on the real thing.

The quant section is much easier on the real thing.

Most people score 50-100 points higher on the real thing compared to the MGMAT car.
