pratice exams

by nickhar130 » Tue Jan 04, 2011 4:54 pm
Hello,

I've been studying for the math and verbal for the gmat using OG, critical reasoning bible, and Manhatten Review (math and verbal). I would like to start taking a real type exam like how they would give to you when you take the gmat. Please advise where i can find or purchase some pratice test exams (including being timed like the actual exam) thanks.

P.S. My gmat test is on january 29th so I wanted to take as many pratice exam to see what score I am getting.

GMAT Prep is probably your first stop. I believe you get the software for 2 CAT tests once you register for the test. If you didn't get it, you can download it online.

Additionally, most of the test prep sites (MGMAT, Knewton, Princeton Review) let you do at least one CAT exam for free. You should definitely check them out. Out of the three, I would recommend MGMAT.

Hi Nick,

I recommend using MGMAT, Kaplan, or another private company to practice pacing. Grockit also has CATs as well as an extensive question-bank. Keep in mind that the score-accuracy is never quite on par with the Powerpreps for any private company, but practice CATs are a must! If you want to really step it up, I suggest a combination of 1-2 programs.

Good luck!
