Manhattan test retest

by shivani_magan Mon Mar 26, 2012 9:15 am

Hello instructors ,
I have finished my 5 Manhattan CATs with below scores.

CAT1 - 600
CAT2- 680
CAT3 - 730
CAT4- 680
CAT5- 750

The problem is that I solved a lot of gmat prep questions beforehand and therefore scored 770 in my first gmatprep test . I followed Stacey's advise of not using extra time on any question but i know this score is lot inflated . Now I have only my 6th cat left which can give me a good prediction of my test result and i want to use it at the end ( My exam is on 12 April 2012) . Plz can you help me with what tests should i give now , will resetting the CATs help me here?

Let's see. If your exam is on 12 April, you want to take your last CAT on 5 April (or around there). You didn't give the dates of the first 5 exams, so perhaps they were a while ago and you had wanted to take two tests (maybe 1 around the time that you submitted your post), but... I'm just getting to this now and it's already 2 April. So plan to take your next (and last) practice test sometime around the 5th.

Read these and do what they say:

You can compress that stuff into 10 days - it doesn't need to be 14. Good luck!
