Practice Test Scoring?

I took the MGMAT Practice test the 1st time and got a 690. Then I took it a second time and also got a 690. I have a few questions: 1. What can I do to improve my scores? 2. How accurate are the scores on the practice exams? 3. Is it just me, or are the math questions harder than normal? Thanks for ...

Question types (with blanks)

A friend took the GMAT last week, and saw a lot of verbal questions that ended in blanks. (Ex. "The company’s campaign will not be successful, because _______________.) What types of questions are these in terms of MGMAT question types? Find the Assumption?

Thanks for the help! - D

Skip essays the 2nd time around?

If I’ve already taken the GMAT once, can I skip the essays since they already have my earlier essays? I did well the first time (5.0).

GMAT cutoffs?

Do business schools use GMAT "cutoffs" in evaluating applications? And what kind of score do you need to be competitive at a top school?

Instructor Josh Braslow

Today is my last MGMAT class. Good course, and instructor Josh Braslow was excellent. He has 8 years of GMAT teaching experience and very well versed in all GMAT subject matter. He is also very good at keeping everyone in the class engaged. There are 9 class sessions, 9 online lab classes. One thing...

Online Course

I am taking MGMAT's on-line course right now. The instructors are great, however, I didn't find 30-minute tutoring very helpful. I bet it depends on the tutor though. :)

# of Data Sufficiency Questions?

When I took the GMAT last week, I could have sworn that there were more than 15 data sufficiency questions. Can someone confirm that they saw 15? Thanks.

MGMAT Instructors vs. Veritas Instructors

Both Veritas and ManhattanGMAT maintain a score standard of 99th percentile (750+) on the GMAT. This is obviously very important, as a high score indicates a mastery of the skills tested by the GMAT. However, there are many skills involved in teaching a class that do not relate to intelligence or on...

Thanks for your question. There is a vast number of skills and content areas that the GMAT will test at a very high difficulty level.

CR questions with blanks

Thanks for your question. Questions of that format, where Critical Reasoning questions leave a section of the argument blank and ask you to fill it in, are becoming more common on the GMAT. In terms of types of question types, it purely depends upon the logical position of the "blank" in the argume...
