There is no way to tell the score really from the mistakes and questions you missed, it is not possible to really tell.
As to Q49, V41 and 750. The algorithms that calculate your raw (sectional) scores and the total (750) are two separate independent calculations so it is possible to arrive at slightly different score combinations.
PS. Test 6 tends to be the one with the easiest questions of all 6 tests so there 2 side effects - one is people get penalized quite a bit for missing a few questions and two, the scores tend to be a bit inflated but only a bit, which perhaps fits with your story line…. But fluctuations are normal with GMAT scores based on the topics tested and the sequence of questions and your personal performance on that day. There are a lot of variables that can drive up to 40 points in difference. Usually the scores are very similar however and the differences less severe.

Thanks a lot for the reply. In terms of takeaway, do you have any advice in terms of how to interpret this? I'm not sure if that means I'm really at Q49 and V41 and can expect an overall score in line with such sectional scores on the real thing, or if on the contrary I'm really at 750 and I can expect my sectional scores in the GMAT to reflect that to some extent.
The answer to which has several implications in terms of whether I need more prep/what I need to work before my next test.
I hope the question is clear
Thank you!
