How can I maximize my GMAT CAT test score?

Host: How can I maximize my GMAT CAT test score?

Jeff Glazer: In terms of trying to maximize your score a lot of people will try to gage the system where they know that the earlier questions are usually worth more, so they will spend a little bit longer upfront, thats actually very often generally good advice to spend a little bit longer upfront trying to get your score up early when the questions are worth more in the computer test. However, some people take that a little too far and spend way too much time giving themselves not enough time to finish the test or finish appropriately and will watch their score drop. So, the best way to do it, is to spend just a little bit extra upfront to avoid careless errors but to still give yourself some time throughout the exam to try and make sure that once you get up into the higher score range you maximize and maintain your performance at that level.
