I just finished a manhattan gmat cat, and was wondering its accuracy in scoring? I am into my third week of study and heres the results of my CATs soo far;
-Week 1: 390 Q22 V21 (Forgot the name of, but was some rip-off type gmat exam)
-Week 2: 490 Q32 V25 (GMat Prep test #1)
-Week 3: 580 Q38 V32 (MGMAT CAT #1)
-Week 4: 570 Q35 V33 (MGMAT CAT #2)
-Week 4: 560 Q38 V29 (MGMAT CAT #3)
-Week 5: 450 Q27 V25 (GMat Prep test #2)
I am trying to shoot for a 570 on the actual exam, so if this MGMAT is a good representation of my score then this is good news for me! I take my gmat in 14 days, any advice on how to maintain this level score or possibly improve? (I don't usually aim this low, but at the moment I can't really dedicate too much time for the GMat prep)
How accurate is the MGMAT CAT scores to the real thing?

It is hard to say that.
My personal opinion is that the MGMATs are tougher than real GMAT. I think they would do so because by giving you lower scores, it allows you to prepare harder. If they give you higher scores and you score lesser on the real one, that would be difficult for you to digest.
My suggestion.
Take 2 more MGMATs and one more GMAT prep after that to see where your scores are on a consistent basis.
Having said all that, practice scores are never gonna influence your real scores. So, dont judge yourself by it completely.
