This is a dumb question I know. But has anybody's score changed from what was shown on the screen on test day?

Never that I have heard of, so it is very official.

How did you do?

720 (Q49, V41). I'm relieved. However, I was hoping for a better verbal score. On the other hand, I never scored higher than Q48 on any of my practice exams so I guess it balances out somewhat.

I just noticed the post above mine. "750 (Q49, V42)"

A few more questions right on verbal and I could've knocked out a 750! :roll: Oh well time to kick back and relax.

Congrats on the score.
It seems like just a point, but GMAT has the low/high scores for raw scores and the same raw score can mean several different final GMAT scores.
You must have gotten a low 41 and a low 49 since a strong 41, 49 would mean a 740.

Randomly found this thread, very interesting that I scored a 750 with Q49, V41. I must have been so close to the Q50 ah!
