Finally took my gmat and scored 740. I feel I could have done better at RC but personally it was an achievement since I was struggling to complete verbal section during practice.

During preparation, I came across many questions for comparison between Kaplan/ MGMAT test scores and GMAT scores. I myself searched for such comparisons numerous times. So for benefit of those people (tests mentioned in chronological order):

GMAT Prep - 1: 720
Kaplan Test - 1: 680
Kaplan Test - 2 710
Kaplan Test - 3: 720
MGMAT Test-1: 680
MGMAT Test-2: 720
MGMAT Test-3: 760
MGMAT Test-4: 720
GMAT Prep-2: 760
MGMAT Test-5: 740

I will be writing the story as well shortly to share my experiences, specially with Verbal roller coaster.

Cheers

Thanks for sharing this. A note to prospective test-takers: The average of Gaurav's last three practice tests comes out to 740 on the nose. Generally speaking, it's the average of your last few tests that will offer the best predictor of where you currently stand, rather than focusing too much on any particular outcome.

"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."
