I would take a GMATPrep test--these practice exams are the most accurate indicator of your actual GMAT performance, since they feature actual, but retired, GMAT questions.

It's had to predict scores with other practice exams.

You can touch 700..

I have been preparing for GMAT from last 2 months. My perception about the Princeton's test is not very good(Princeton's test's difficulty level is far below the actual GMAT). If you want to see actual performance indication then you should take a GMAT prep test. GMAT prep test's difficulty level is very close to the actual GMAT.

So my honest suggestion to you will be to take a GMAT prep test and plan your studies accordingly!!

Best of luck with your preparation!!!

I found the PR tests to be pretty close to the real thing, so I'd say it's a good indicator of where you are now. But don't let that discourage you! Anything is possible!

Over the next two weeks, work on your fundamentals for half the week, then take a practice test. Review, review, review and check your errors. If you have some time you can take off work, that might help as you hit the end of your prep.

Good luck!

Agree, take a GMATPrep test as soon as possible. Your # correct / incorrect is not actually the big factor in your score. Two people can get the same # right and wrong - and have a 300 point difference in score. What matters is the difficulty level of the questions you are answering.
