Hey guys, I recently bought the seventh edition of the Kaplan Math Workbook. I started working through it and I realized that I was getting a lot of the questions wrong(somewhere around half). I was wondering if this is just me or if the math is actually harder on the workbook than it is on the real test.

Remember that the actual test is adaptive--it's very hard to say whether the problems in our book will be harder than the real test, because the real test will adjust itself to your skill level! That said, to my knowledge, the Math workbooks sits mostly at the 600 level; however, there are easier and hard questions scattered throughout, so it's hard to say. Best bet for confirming your score: take a test, either through Kaplan or through www.mba.com, and use your result as a baseline!
