<p>I generally find dividing your SAT score by 2 is a rough approximation of what your GMAT will look like, although know many who matured since hs and did much better than this on the GMAT."</p>
<p>810 SAT, 670 GMAT :). I scored 690 and 700 on the GMAT prep (I also took the GRE 3 times and went from a low of 1020 to a high of 1300). I’m sure I left 20-30 points on the table, but I think I would top out at ~690-710 or so, as I do believe that 99.99+% of the test takers have a ceiling on the GMAT dictated by their intelligence. However, I agree with you about the correlation, I am pretty anomalous. I think the correlation is closer to the 1/2 of the pre re-centered SAT score.</p>
<p>These tests are learnable, but the down side is that if you don’t study, you won’t score up to your potential, or even close.</p>
