I took the first test in February (scored 560) and another one yesterday (scored 630).
I want to know will the questions get repeated if i reset the test?
I am asking this because I have scored comparatively low and I feel I might have not got
many 700 level questions which might come up if I am doing well on the GMATPrep.
Is the question set dynamic like the one in Manhattan tests or are there only fixed questions
in the GMATPrep software.

Thanks,

Hi the_silver_lining,

Yes, you will see some repeat questions if you retake a CAT that you've already used. For a more realistic result, you should invest in some new CATs and take those instead.

The GMAT Prep is dynamic, but not in the sense that ALL of the questions are new.

You can certainly take each GMAT test more than once. In fact, you SHOULD take each GMATPrep more than once. They are a great resource and many experts recommend that you attempt every question in each of the two tests.

The two tests are based on separate question pools so there is no overlap between the two. When you take a test for a second or third time you may see some repeat questions but it is usually just a few questions. When you do see a repeat be sure to work through the whole process and take the appropriate amount of time.

And since you took the test in February you should have forgotten those questions anyway!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
