I decided to today to try out the Veritas Prep practice GMAT exam linked to on the right. The test was full of questions errors. One example:

S1 = {3, 6, 8, 12, ...} S1 Contains all the multiples of three...

Some of the coordinate questions had period separating X and Y coordinates, while others had variables. Some problems had minus signs instead of equal signs even when the problems stated that an equation was given. The program froze before I could get to the verbal section.

I also felt the problems were wildly different than the ones on the GMATPrep, Kaplan, and MGMAT tests I have been using. With all that in mind, I would like to make a serious recommendation that the link to the Veritas Prep test be taken down immediately so no other test takers accidentally decided to try the practice exam. It is a waste of everyone's precious time.

Hi blackraven568,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. While I disagree that the test is full of errors, we're looking into this right now to see if that question needs fixing.
