Used spreadsheet to analyze results. For some reason in Power prep CAT 1 the problem solving was much lower than 40. Confused, are MGMAT tests easier?

MGMAT tests are not easier. The important thing is not to compare results or read into your test scores, but understand what patterns of questions you are getting wrong. So, what patterns are you noticing?

Majority of DS questions i got wrong, PS is better, but not in probability, word problems are slacking. I sometimes catch myself rereading word problems a few times.

in verbal section: CR- Weaken, Inference and Draw a conclusion questions are a problem. SC- did not have too many mistakes, maybe need to review modifiers. RC- i still hav enot developed a good strategy to attack those. I read and take notse at the same time, such as read a thought and wrote a thought in shorter words. After i am done wiht the text i start questions, i get some right, some wrong. No specific pattern, i guess. Maybe i need to employe different strategy.. I tried skimming the text, but then i get all answers wrong. I need to write things down to stay focused.

What do you think? My plan for this week is to go over OG math and OG verbal fundamentals and do a practice test again. And analyze the results.

Eric,
in analysing patterns of my recent test :
Majority of DS questions i got wrong, PS is better, but not in probability, word problems are slacking. I sometimes catch myself rereading word problems a few times.

Thank you.
I am intensely studying Math now- problem solving, no DS. Only math using OG, Quant review and Kaplan 800. Focusing on different sections. So far so good. WIll be taking another practise test from MGMAT.

Thanks a lot guys, for support

Are you comfortable with Kaplan 800?
Do you think you should use that book at this time of your prep?

well! I didnt say that.

just that k800 has 700+ types problems/ toughies... you must be aware of this...

I'm not recommending anything. take your call.
