Dear Sir

The diff level is 1012? I was in the impression that GMAT ques difficulty level ranges from 600-800. Could you advise if 1012 means they are the most difficult of the lot or are these numbers not reflective of GMAT diff levels?

It is not on an 800 scale. This is a relative scale.

Sorry for asking lame questions , but when you say 1012 level difficult -- are these the "HARDEST" of the ques one get on a GMAT?
