Hi,

From this forum, I realized that MGMAT CAT results are significantly skewed higher than the actual GMAT.

I have already exhausted the GMATPrep (both exams done more than 2 times) And the only CAT left for me are the 6 MGMAT CATs that came along from the MGMAT books.

My main concern is Verbal. The program I applied req. a 46%ile in verbal GMAT, approximately a raw score of >=28.

It showed on my MGMAT that my verbal = 36.

For those who have taken both MGMAT and real test / GMATprep, would you say how much would a MGMAT verbal score of 36 reflect on the real exam?

Thanks

I have 6 days before my real GMAT exam.

Thanks!

Ofcourse, you may say it may not worth the time to predict my performance this way.

However, I need a goal to benchmark myself the gap from my goal.

Accuracy yields diff scores depending on difficulties. Without any other choices, I chose the CAT generated raw score to evaluate.

If anyone can suggest a better way to evaluate performance / predict performance, please let me know.
