Simple. Nothing is as good as GMATPrep. GMATPrep comes from the test makers. You could try out MGMAT CATs apart from GMATPrep.

Super biased - but I can tell you with great confidence that the Knewton CATs are the closest to the GMATPrep tests that you'll find. Our tests were build by the developers of the actual exam, and have the same algorithm as the GMAT does.

You can try one of our full-length CATs by signing up for a free trial of the Knewton GMAT prep course.

Hopefully helpful,

I took my test on March 12th, after going through more than 15 CATs. Undoubtedly, the GMATPrep ones were the best. Additionally, I tried various test like Arco, VeritasPrep, 800score etc. All of these tests have some or other drawbacks. The only drawback I found on the GMATPrep tests was that they did not have any explanations for the answers. Still, given that they represent the test most accurately, trust them.

My suggestion, take as many tests as you can, from various sources, for the sake of practice, however, for score assessment, only trust the GMATPrep ones. You may read one of my posts at https://www.beatthegmat.com/my-debrief-f ... 54581.html, which has a detailed description of my experience with these online exams.

Hope this helps.
