GMAT Practice Tests

by MBADriven Tue Nov 11, 2008 9:19 pm

I have been studying for a few months and I have made progress on my practice tests.

MGMAT Practice 1 - 460

MGMAT Practice 2 - 460

MGMAT Practice 3 - 540

MGMAT Practice 4 - 580

GMAT Prep - 490

What is up this this 490. I am taking the real test in two weeks and this score has made me a little nervous. I need to score in the low 600's? Do you have any advice. :x

What were your math and verbal breakdowns on each test? What were the dates on which you took the tests? Did you take them all under full official conditions? (30m each for two essays, 10m break, 75m quant, 10m break, 75m verbal) If not, which ones did you take differently and what were those differences?

How was your timing on each section for that last test on which your score dropped? Did you run out of time at any point, have to rush and/or make a lot of guesses? What time of day did you take it? Did you take it right after you took another practice test (the next day, for example)? Were there any other differences you noticed (no matter how insignificant) between your earlier practice tests and this one?
