Thanks. :)

I think the GMATprep software is a good indicator for how difficult questions will be in the real test. You should save at least the second test until the end of your studies.
Personally I think that the MGMAT tests are more difficult (especially the quant section) than the real test.

Hey,

could anyone tell me whether the first questions are more important than the last ones? Does the GMAT weigh them higher than the last questions?

The CR Bible says yes, the OG says NO, so I'm a bit confused...

Thank you!

I thought about this as well, but my wrong answers in the second test are more or less evenly distributed (5,7,10,13,17,19,22,24,28,33,36). Unfortunately, I can't recall which answers were wrong in the first test. As far as I can recall, the OG says that the GMAT doesn't weigh the first questions hi...

I am asking because in the Quant section I got a scaled score of 48 but answered 11 questions incorrectly. The ...

Relative Importance - Quantitative vs Verbal

Hello everybody, I am currently preparing for my GMAT. So far, I've taken three practice tests with an average of 650 (Quant avg 42.7; Verbal avg. 37.3). When creating my study plan I found a website (GMATpill; doesn't seem to be really reliable, though) that states that the verbal part has a higher...

Best preparation for me

Hello everybody, I have to ask for your advice on how to most efficiently prepare for the GMAT. I did the first GMATprep two weeks ago and scored 650 (q42,v38). Today I did the MGMAT #1 and scored 640 (q43,v35). This time I did not finish the quant part and did not answer three questions. Since I am...
