Gmat Prep = Real Gmat?
is the gmat prep software setup like the real thing?
in other words, do you start with a "medium" question and then if you:
get it correct - move on to a more difficult question/get it wrong - move on to an easier question?
or does it just give you random questions?

Kaplan cat - just ignore. PR is a good cat, definitely worth doing because the difficulty progression is a little less intense than MGMAT; in other words, if you are doing well MGMAT will make you sweat starting at around question 10 or so while PR does the same at about question 15. PowerPrep is g...
