It's impossible to answer that question. The test is not just a function of whether you get something correct - it depends upon the difficulty levels of the questions and a bunch of other things. Even if you could give me all the data, I can't just look at it and compute the score - we need an entire computer algorithm to calculate scores.

In general, you should consider GMATPrep the best indicator of your current scoring level. BUT you need to have taken the test under 100% official conditions (or as close as possible). If you (for example) skipped the essays on GMATPrep, took longer breaks than allowed, ate or drink during the test, etc., and then took the TPR test under 100% official conditions, then it's possible your GMATPrep result was inflated and the TPR test is closer to your true level.
