Kaplan test scores are not real indicators of actual GMAT scores. If you look up some other posts, you will find that lot of others have voiced that Kaplan scores are skewed downwards, sometimes to the extent of 100 points or even more.

GMATPrep is the best indicator of official GMAT scores. You can download it for free from www.mba.com.

Hi radhika1306,

It sounds like speaking with others may be a good way to get an idea of how Kaplan compares with the real test. The best way to see how the score compares is to take the actual GMAT.
