- GMAT Score:770
Greetings all - I just got done taking the 1st of 2 full length tests using the GMATPrep software. It said my total score was a 730, and my breakdown says:
Q: 37 questions. 11 wrong
V: 41 questions. 6 wrong
Question #1) I didn't note what my scaled scores for each section were.. and I can't seem to backtrack to find this info
. Is there any way to calculate / approximate them?
Question #2 - How good of a measuring stick is the GMATPrep score vs. what one could expect to get on the actual GMAT? Is it relatively close (+/- 20 points?) Or is it usually way off (and therefore I should just be using it to familiarize myself with the test structure)?
I plan to take the GMAT in ~3 weeks time. I think I remember seeing a bundle of 3 PDF's with full length tests on the official MBA website
Question #3 - in addition to the GMATprep software, would these PDF's be a good resource to study before the test? (I'm already using an older Princeton Review book as well as "The official guide for GMAT review"). If not - what other resources should I look into for good/accurate full length tests?
Thanks for any tips!
