Hi All,
I have a question,I have attempted Gmat in Feb and score only 470
Q 44
V 12

Dockland center London
UK
Now I am again going to attempt on 3rd september

in Birmingham Sutton center
UK

I am from India

I am scoring good in Quant but not in verbal since GMAT is CAT
do anyone have idea if Algorithm use more tough questions in native English speaking countries than non native countries.

I mean questions of English in UK more tough than India.

Hello the GMAT algorithm is the same for every country. There is no discrimination it’s against GMAC policy.
Now,find out where your weakness lie in verbal ,is it modifiers,pronouns ,Subject-verb,verb sequencing ,parallelism ?etc
After, go over concepts regarding it/them
Solve as many official questions under your weak area as possible
All the best :)

Location-based variations in the exam would be illegal. The scoring algorithm is not designed to take into account whether an Indian or a non-Indian is the testtaker.

If GMAC made such a drastic change, then it would be well-publicized long before the change is made. Standardized tests have predictable elements.

Your verbal abilities on the test require systematic work in all sections. They can be improved over several months. GL!
