Hey,
I just took a GMATPrep test (after resetting for the 2nd time) and scored 770 (51Q, 44V). How inflated would you say it is? I didn't "remember" any of the answers and none of the reading comprehensions were repeated. Naturally, there were a bunch of repeat questions but I didn't "memorize" any of the answers so I had to calculate.
It makes me feel quite good! Lol.
GMATPrep Reset - How accurate?

It's difficult to say how inflated the test was. I imagine that it was somewhat inflated because some questions were repeated. You may not have remembered the answers, but you you probably remembered how to calculate the answers. This could have resulted in additional time for the more difficult questions and could have inflated your score.
What were yours scores on your previous GMATPrep attempts?

It seems like you are scoring in the 700 to 750 range if you factor in the inflation. If you can put up a score in that range, then you will be in good shape for the application process!

Are MGMAT scores deflated? I always score much lower on them. Although I have a strange feeling that they predict the actual score better than GMATPrep. GMATPrep is definitely easier than the real thing. I just did another MGMAT CAT and scored 700. :S

MGMAT is a pretty accurate predictor. I believe the standard deviation is 50 points and the standard deviation for GMATPrep is 30 points.
I scored 690 on MGMAT 4 times and got a 710 on the actual GMAT.
