Yes, the actual score usually falls between +-20 points of your GMAT Prep, that is if you took the GMAT Prep under test conditions.

Just take the exam once again before the test.
And yes, be aggressive but calm while taking the actual test and you should be able to score a 680 with a little bit of luck!!

All the best!!!

My score in GMAT Prep over a period of time were
GMAT Prep1 700
GMAT Prep2 710

GMAT Prep1Repeat 720
GMAT Prep2Repeat 740

Actual Score 750

I took a test a day before the test and just analyzed each question, tried to solve the quant questions i didn't get right and tried to search the forum for any explanations of the verbal section that i wasn't sure of.

The day before the test I just revised basic concepts for a couple of hours....evening i went out met my friends, had a nice meal and just relaxed and slept well.....remember, your mind has to be fresh and you should be confident of your preparation. Just remember, if dont panic and do justice to the kind of work that you have put in then you will be rewarded proportionately....not more not less.........

You can check out my debrief in the link below to read about my experience with the test.........

All the best!!!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
