GMATPrep Practice Test (unique question)
I assume their are a lot of people on here that have downloaded the free GMATPrep software/practice tests from mba.com, so this is a question for you...
I downloaded the program and it opens up and is functional and I can access the practice tests, answer questions, etc. etc. etc. BUT the "show answer," "check answer," and "previous question" buttons are no where to be found. I can only answer the question and then move on to the next one (exactly like it is when you are actually sitting for the GMAT). I have uninstalled/deleted everything and redownloaded it multiple times and its still doing the same thing. I even updated Java, etc but no dice.
Has anyone encountered this before??? Its very strange, and I cannot find anything related to this problem online so I figured I would ask all of the MS/MBA hopefuls. I appreciate the help guys and gals.





You can check answers at the
You can check answers at the end of the practice tests.
abacb - okay well at least
abacb - okay well at least thats an option, I didn't want to take the whole thing and just get a score and be able to analyze what I missed. Thanks for the info.
But regardless of that, when you were taking them did you have the option to check the answer as you were solving each question?
No, the option to check was
No, the option to check was only in the end. Otherwise the whole timing thing doesn't work. Main goal of the practice test is to simulate test environment, not error correction or whatever else.
If you just want to check and go, you are better off using normal problems (I never used the ones in the software, might be an option there or with some other vendor) in OG books or something. I'd suggest doing 20 or so at once, check which ones you got wrong, etc. Otherwise you are spending too much time flipping thru the pages, and also you can see the next one already.

+1. The test isn't intended to be test prep. Just use it to get an idea of your testing range.
Gotcha, thanks a lot ... I
Gotcha, thanks a lot ... I just wanted to make sure I had access to answers (either while taking the test or after) I got wrong if I took the whole thing... thanks again
