How to Use Morra · 5 of 8

Mock Tests Module

The Mock Tests module is the only practice mode that simulates the full GMAT Focus Edition end-to-end. Each mock covers all three sections back-to-back with real timing, and returns an estimated score on the official 205–805 scale. Use it to gauge readiness, build stamina, and find weak areas before test day.

For the full breakdown of section structure, question counts, timing, and scoring, see GMAT Focus Overview → Test Structure & Timing and → Scoring & Percentiles.

A) What a Mock Test Is

Unlike a Practice session, a mock test runs all three sections in one sitting and keeps the app in exam mode for the duration. You see no per-question feedback, no answer reveals, and no in-line explanations while you take it. Scoring and full review unlock only after you complete the final section.

B) When to Take Your First Mock

Do not take a mock as your very first action on Morra. A mock is most useful once the adaptive engine has enough data about your level. A reasonable sequence:

  1. Complete 2–3 practice sessions in your weakest section.
  2. Read theory for any subtopics where accuracy is below 60%.
  3. Take your first mock to establish a baseline score.
  4. Use the per-section breakdown to target your next study block.
  5. Re-mock every 2–3 weeks to track improvement.

There is no penalty for taking a mock "too early" — you will simply get a wide score estimate. Use early mocks to build stamina, not to predict your real score.

C) Starting a Mock

Open Mock Tests from the sidebar. The page shows a single test card plus your recent mock sessions below it. Click Start Test to begin.

Before the first question loads, Morra asks you to pick your section order (see D) and shows a confirmation dialog. Confirming starts the test immediately and abandons any unfinished mock session — there is no "are you sure?" later.

You can resume an in-progress mock at any time from the Resume button on the test card or in the Recent Sessions list.

D) Choosing Your Section Order

Morra matches the real GMAT's six section orders exactly. You see all six options as numbered cards at the start of every new mock and pick the one that matches your test-day plan. The total time stays the same regardless of order.

For strategy on which section to start with, see GMAT Focus Overview → Test Structure & Timing → Section Order Choice.

E) The Adaptive Algorithm in Your Mock

Morra uses the same adaptive algorithm as the real GMAT — the next question's difficulty is chosen based on how you answered the previous one in the same section. The full explanation lives in GMAT Focus Overview → What Changed from Classic GMAT → Bookmark & Review Feature.

F) Timing and Breaks

Each section runs on its own per-section clock. When a section ends, its timer stops and the next section starts a fresh countdown — total time is preserved across the full mock. For the exact per-section minutes and recommended pacing, see GMAT Focus Overview → Test Structure & Timing.

  • Pause is available at any moment. The pause button in the bottom bar freezes the timer and shows a Resume Exam overlay. Use it for short breaks — bathroom, water, a stretch.
  • If you close the tab or lose connection, resuming the test picks up exactly where you left off. The time you were away does not count against you.
  • "Save for Later" exits cleanly. The save button on the pause overlay stops the test and takes you back to the Mock Tests page. Resume from there when you return.
  • Between sections there is no timer. When a section ends, you see an Optional Break card with a "Start [Next Section]" button. Take as long as you want — Morra does not enforce the real GMAT's 10-minute limit.
  • If the timer hits zero, a "Time's up" dialog appears. Click Continue to Break to finalize the section and move on (or to see your final score if it was the last section).
  • If you finish a section early, the review phase at the end of the section lets you revisit and edit your answers. Click Complete Section when you are ready to move on.

G) During the Test — Tools and Navigation

While answering questions, you have access to:

  • Navigator — A sidebar of question numbers lets you jump to any question in the current section. Filled circles = answered, empty = unanswered, flagged = bookmarked for review.
  • Edit Answer — You can change your answer to a previously submitted question a few times per section. The limit resets each new section.
  • Flag for Review — Marks a question for later attention without removing your answer.

You can move freely between questions in the same section. Once a section is submitted, its answers are locked.

For the on-screen Bookmark and Calculator (Data Insights only) tools, see GMAT Focus Overview → Calculator, Notepad & Test Tips.

H) Scoring

Mock test scoring — the 205–805 total, the 60–90 per-section scale, how the total is weighted, and what to expect from your first few mocks — is covered in GMAT Focus Overview → Scoring & Percentiles.

I) Reviewing Your Mock Test

From the Mock Tests page, click any completed session in the Recent Sessions list and choose Review. The session summary, Results by Difficulty chart, question table, error tagging, and the global Error Log all work exactly the same as for a practice session — see the Review Module chapter for the full workflow.

J) The GMAT Official Practice Exams (OGPE)

GMAC publishes six Official Practice Exams that come closest to the real test. If you plan to take the OGPEs, complete those before attempting Morra mocks. The two test banks overlap in style and difficulty, so doing Morra mocks first reduces the diagnostic value of your OGPE attempts.

You will see this warning in the confirmation dialog every time you start a Morra mock. The opposite order — OGPEs first, Morra mocks after — is the recommended path for most test takers.
