Hi,
I got 630 and 650 respectively in the first two MGMAT CATs.

I am trying to get a sense of how much those who score around 650 in MGMAT CATs actually score on the real exam. Any rough estimate will help me gauge my coordinates...thanks people!

Mike

Hi mbamike,

While ManhattanGMAT practice exams do a pretty good job matching up with a student's performance on a real exam, it's important not to place too much weight into any given practice exam. Given your two scores, however, it would be safe to say that you would score in the 610 - 680 range on the exam. I know this is a pretty large range, but the GMAT itself actually has a 30 point standard deviation, meaning that if you have a 650 ability level, you can score anywhere between 620 - 680 and still be at the same level as a test-taker.

I hope this helps. Good luck studying!

Best,

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
