On Monday I got 650 in my MGMAT CAT1, in that one I took some extra time in quantitative section.

Today I did GMAT Prep test 1, and scored 740 and I even had 9 mins remaining for quantitative section when I was done.

The scores just look too good to me, I am going to take the real thing on Saturday, and by then I will have only studied 3 weeks, and there are still many things I don't know. I just don't feel I could score that high in the real thing. :(



Any suggestions?

BTW my AWA sucks, and they look like 4 examples in OG...

Hi Reader,

With a test on Saturday, you don't have much time left. I think the best thing you can do is

1) Take the other GMATPrep test. If you've taken both, then delete both and retake one

2) Go over the detailed explanations to the GMATPrep questions to ensure that you understand the concepts tested. This way you will be sure going into the test that your score was not a fluke. You can find solutions from gmatfix.

Try to relax. You will do yourself no favor by going into the test freaking out. In general, GMATPrep is very reliable as long as you didn't use a calculator or something silly like that :-)

Best of luck on Saturday
