Its essential to take a practice test early on. Doing so will give you the initial feedback and diagnostic information that you will need to achieve your maximum score. Taking a full-length test right at the start can be intimidating. Place enough importance on your first practice testand all of your practice teststo turn off your cell phone, give the test your full attention, and learn from your performance, but also remember: your practice test scores dont count.

Your Diagnostic Test is CAT 1, which is found in your online resources. CAT 1, like all of Kaplans online full-length tests, is a computer-adaptive test, which is the same format as the actual GMAT. The computer-adaptive format feels and scores differently than a paper test, so the more you practice with CATs, the better off youll be. However, for your convenience, weve also included a paper-based pretest in of this book. The pretest includes full-length Quantitative and Verbal sections and will give you a chance to familiarize yourself with the various question types. It also allows you to accurately gauge the content you know and identify areas for practice and review.

Review the detailed answer explanations to better understand your performance. Our explanations label each question according to its question type and topic; these labels align with the material covered throughout this book. Look for patterns in the questions you answered correctly and incorrectly. Were you stronger in some areas than others? This analysis will help you target your practice time to specific concepts.
