It probably does not matter a whole lot. If you are good with one, you will be good with the other. The questions are the same, though the adaptive tests have 100+ new questions. Today the adaptive tests are free

Any feedback in terms of performance versus other prep CATs? How are people faring in relation to how they fare in other prep tests (i.e., GMATPrep, Kaplan, MGMAT)? Thanks.

These are predominantly Hard Math Questions. They are not designed to make you feel good or get a nice shiny practice score. Your score will be painful and you will be humbled by the questions - please do not take it personally. These questions and tests were created to help those with Q45 to get to Q50 and find all the gaps in their know knowledge. The Verbal and Math are split into two separate categories. There is no AWA or IR junk. You can also take the questions in a quiz mode. Here is my view of the latest interface (notice the question count represents only the questions I have not taken yet). This feature will be available Midnight on Wed Thursday. BB.

Great explanation, BB. Sounds very appealing. Does anyone have any opinions about their own outcomes that either agree or contradict BB's take on them? Please feel free to share specific numbers, unless the test is that demoralizing.

Yup, pretty demoralizing. Not sure what was worse, my results or how my results stack up.

I would say if you can get to the 25th percentile, you are doing pretty good... And apologies - there are way too many people who are quant-gifted around here.

No need to apologize. I would like to improve my quant score on the GMAT (47), but I wouldn't deem it deficient. To the contrary, exceeding some benchmark (i.e., the one you just threw out) makes me feel much better. That being said, the percentage (in)correct makes me feel a bit bad.

HI bb
One simple doubt, does the GMAT presents a mixed bag of questions, I mean once 8 of first 10 questions get right and than starts the real game suppose if i get next few questions wrong, will i continue getting harder question or the level will be dropped to 650 level...... if i continue answering harder question , is it likely that i ll get simpler question i mean 650 , 600 or only 700 level. In a nutshell is the test on Quant staggered or one is deemed to get only harder question if he continues to answer questions correctly.
regards Archit
