Hey there

I just finished my Kaplan Diagnostic Quant and got a 24/37.Is that a decent score??
What does it say about my aptitude?? Do I need to worry?? Also,Can I get this score to 45+ ??

I welcome any inputs and suggestions.

In a anxious position now because all say that a person can improve by only a maximum of 100points..Nothing more than that.

Thanks in advance,

Dan

Hi Dan,

Can you clarify what you just wrote?

Are you saying that you got 24 out 37 Quant questions correct? Unfortunately, that's not enough information to assess how well you actually did.

What was your score for the entire practice CAT? What were the Scaled Scores and/or Percentiles for each section?

As an aside, I've personally worked with people who saw a score increase of over 300 points in 3 months, so the idea that you could only improve your score 100 points is silly.

Well Rich,

I did only the Quant from the Kaplan Gmat2013 Premier. So I really cant assess my score on 800.Scaled scores are based on the total one gets on both Quant and Verbal.Besides this was a paper based test,,not adaptive.

Is this score bad? Or can I make it to the 45+raw score??I have not answered Verbal as yet.According to you,where do I stand as far as the quant is concerned on a scale of 51.

Thanks again Rich

-Dan

Hi Dan,

Since this is a pencil-and-paper test, there's no way to properly assess what this would translate to on the CAT-Quant Scale. Your book might make an estimate, but since this is NOT a Test-like experience, the results aren't going to tell you how strong you are. The results could probably help identify your weaknesses though and you can use all of these questions again later (for review purposes).

It sounds like you might just be starting off with your GMAT training. Have you taken any full-length practice CATs yet? If not, then take one and report back with your results. THAT data will help to assess your current ability and will help me to offer some pointed advice.

If you have any additional questions, then please let me know.
