How hard are the Kaplan tests?

by albyman32 » Thu Sep 25, 2008 7:47 am
I just took a Kaplan CAT and got a 560. So far I've gone through all of PR and halfway through Kaplan. My first two tests were both PR and I got 590s on both but made the critical mistake of leaving 8 or so questions left unanswered on Math. I'm working on that obviously and I paced myself better this time around so I was hoping to see some score improvements.

My goal is 700+ and I've still got a lot of studying left. How concerned should I be with this low score? Am I still way off the pace?

regarding PR and Kaplan

From what I have read on other forums (I am also preparing for GMAT on Nov 22) PR tests are very easy (especialy the math part) compared to the real test. Kaplan has pathetic verbal but since its math is tougher than the real stuff so it is very good practice.
