I know the algorithm in prep is same as the real one. Nevertheless, are GMAT prep scores truly representative of real GMAT scores? What is everyone's experience? How do the difficulty levels compare between the prep and real tests? How about timing requirements?

Thanks.

GMATprep tests are by far the most representative tests out there. IMHO, not only are the scores accurate, but most of the real questions I've seen actually mimic (to a certain degree, of course) what you'll see on G-day.

I scored a 760 pretty close to the real thing, so I suppose that's as accurate as it gets.

I say trust GMATprep: if you bother to search this forum for keywords, you'll see that most members agree with me.

Dude... or dudette, GMAT Prep is the absolute closest you wiull EVER get to the real thing. They are beautiful things.

My suggestion is you take GMATPrep I over and over again to get access to the hundreds of questions in the question bin BUT save GMAT Prep II for 1 week before your test. Your score on GMAT Prep II will be as about as close an approximation of your final score as you will ever get.
