If this is an issue, i'd suggest that as part of the program, you recommend taking other practice tests since the results can be reviewed repeatedly and the discrepancy cannot be too high! The question bank is obviously great for practice, just not for tests. I'd still do the GMAT Prep test, but i just dont know what to work off. On MGMAT, i scored 530 thrice and on GMAT Prep i scored 460 and i cannot even review the results. Gutted!
Please help.
The inability to review the GMATPrep practice tests is a relatively new glitch that the test-makers are planning to fix. This practice test is far too valuable to remove from the Study Guide. In fact, the Guide has students write each GMATPrep practice test twice (the Guide also has students take several 3rd-party tests).
The official GMATPrep software uses official GMAT questions and the official GMAT scoring algorithm. Also keep in mind that the test-makers collect a lot of data on every single question, and every question has been asked in a formal testing environment so that the well-prepared test-takers are trying their best to answer every question. Given all of this, the official practice tests are bound to the most accurate.
That said, my feeling is that you can't have too many practice tests.
Cheers,
Brent
