Hi !
I took Veritas CAT today . I got a 720 with 48 in Quant and 41 in Verbal .
Strange thing is that two days back when i gave another Veritas quant i got 680 with 48 in Quant (same) and 35 in Verbal but here accuracy in verbal was 71 % overall . Whereas in case of 41 verbal i got accuracy of just 61 % with 16 questions Wrong ! ... How much can i rely on this score ? Also if i see the spread of mistakes , its more or less same for both my Exams in Veritas.
My general trending in other mocks is 650-670 , ( kaplan , Gmat prep and princeton )
Please help me judge the accuracy of these scores , especially the verbal score !
Thanks a ton .
Even I am confused about this
Test 1 -690
Test1 Score Percentile Correct
Quant 49 (of 60) 83% 65%
Verbal 36 (of 60) 79% 61%
In verbal I got 5 questions Incorrect consecutively, So i understand the dip. It gets more interesting now
Test 2 - 680 Same accuracy, this is understandable as maybe the overall people taking the test were smarter, so percentile went down.
Test 2 Score Percentile Correct
Quant 48 (of 60) 78% 65%
Verbal 36 (of 60) 79% 61%
Test 3 - 680, very different accuracy, also I actually went a little deeper to see if the questions i got right in verbal were marked right by few people. I got question 2-13 right, and some of those had less than 50% people marking it right. I never got multiple questions wrong at a stretch unlike my first test where i got 5 consecutive wrong. Still with a high difficulty and better accuracy my verbal score is pretty low. Its actually opposite for quant, I think Quant with ply 60% accuracy and missing several easy questions I got 48.
Test 3 Score Percentile Correct
Quant 48 (of 60) 78% 59%
Verbal 35 (of 60) 74% 78%
Help me understand how the percentile works for Veritas, The quality of questions are quite good I must say, just don't think the scoring pattern is right.
