first of all thank you very much for all of your responses. Now I have that confidence that I can ace the gmat.

Hai karishma,

The difference between mgmat and gmat prep question is wording of questions, particularly percentage problems. At the beginning of the test I got difficult questions but i solved them in with in 2.5 minutes. I started screwed up my test from 30th question, and i got so nervous when i am getting very easy questions. My percentile for 29 questions is 74 percentile after that my percentile never come back. one more point is I took the gmat prep test 2nd time(repeated),and 2 questions are repeated. are the 2 questions inflated my score?.

Thanks

First of all, don't second guess the algorithm. There are various reasons why it may give you easy questions in between or why you may feel that the questions are easy. The software tends to balance out the exam so it is possible that you get easy questions after getting some tough ones even if you answered the tough ones correctly. Also, when you know the basics of a topic very well, even convoluted questions seem very easy. Just focus on each question as you get it and do not focus on the level of questions you are getting.
The 2 questions would have inflated your score but only slightly. Since the software is adaptive, no one or two can make or break your score. That is the reason that you should quit on a question if you are unable to solve it instead of spending 6 mins on it.
