I recently completed a Kaplan course which was very supportive to my studying. Included in it the course were 9 online CAT exams which grouped my errors by type, showed trends, and after every exam showed how I did in each section whilst giving solutions to the problems.

Now that the course is over, Kaplan has taken my account of their system so I am no longer able to log in and use their service. I went out to search for other CAT's. I have downloaded the GMAC software (2 free CAT's), but this software is garbage in comparison to Kaplans. I want more informative information feedback and explanations to the errors I made (GMAC doesn't provide any unless I am missing something). What is hands down the best CAT software? Price is not an issue, I just want to know if this option is available.

The best is by far the GMAT Prep. The actual indicator of your performance in the GMAT.

How is that possible? I couldn't see solutions for any of my answers, it just told me what the right answer was. I want a software that explains each question.

You can copy those questions on google and get to the explanations.

The actual purpose of CAT's is to mirror performances on the actual GMAT. And only the GMAT Prep does that.

The two tests from mba.com are by far the best predictors of your score. You won't see the explanations though, but you can search our forums for any of the questions in the software: they've been answered countless times!

I agree. The MBA.com tests were by far the closest thing to the actual GMAT. I also found the Benchmark and MGMAT practice CATs really helpful. Good Luck!
