Anyone have any experience with how scores on the practice tests included in the Test Prep software from MBA.com translate to the actual exam?...I don't think they are adaptive like the real exam, but am unsure how the score would actually translate. I took one over the weekend and did well, but was unsure if it was a realistic approximation of actual peformance.

GMATPrep from MBA.com is the most accurate predictor of your actual GMAT score because (1) it features actual (but retired) GMAT questions, and (2) it's supposed to mimick the scoring algorithm of the actual test.

Anecdotally, I've heard many people report that their score on GMATPrep was very close to the score they ultimately received on the real GMAT.

mschling52, perhaps you are a naturally gifted testtaker, given your performance!

Best of luck!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
