Thank you very much for the detailed and informative reply. I will take another gmat prep tomorrow and if I dont get the score I intend to, then I would consider postponing. Hope to see my score improve. Will post the results. Thanks a lot. :)

Regards,
Lakshmi

Re: Strange MGMAT CAT Scores (3 days from Real Thing)

How much did you score on the real test? How do you compare your experience with MGMAT CATs with the real test? I have the exam in 3 days and I am still wondering if I am adequately prepared. Please share your insights.

Hi Stacey, Well, I did take the test that day itself and it did not go as I expected.. I got 690 which is a 10 point impr...
