Dear Friends,

I started GMAT preparation, a couple of months back.

Till date, I have attempted 7 paper based tests ( 6 - Mc Graw hill Tests & 1 - Cliffs Test) and kaplan online test.

On an average, I am scoring 650 on the Paper based Tests ( Scores ranging from 610 to 680).

I have attempted online Kaplan Test and Scored 640.

Are these results true indicators of my performance?

Kindly let me know.

Thank You.

Paper tests are not good indicators of what you'll score on a CAT. They should simply be viewed as practice questions.
