Hi,
I would like to know if one can request for an analysis of the official score? Is this possible? I know its system based and it has its own algorithm etc.. but you think that it might have an issue sometime? Does it happen? I had read about one candidate who did not get the score immediately due to some system issue and received it almost 12 days later.
Why am I asking this? : One of my friend was constantly scoring a verbal 40+ score in all his mocks including the prep with a 51 in Quant and an overall of 720+ in all of his mocks. However, the final verbal test score was 28 and Quant 51.. Not questioning the accuracy or anything or saying that this person might not have done any mistake, but would just like to know if one can analyze the test scores if requested. Is that possible? I could not find anything about this on the web, hence posting it here. Would really appreciate if someone could throw some light.

Unfortunately no, the only report you get from your official exam is the scoring. While it is highly disappointing to have the score drop like that on the real exam, that is one of the realities of taking the GMAT. This drop in score is usually a result of several potential factors: seeing slightly different problems on the real exam, suffering test anxiety, running out of mental energy, having a bad day, or just bad luck.
My best advice is to prepare to take the exam again, taking several practice exams (especially the GMATPrep exams) before the test.

Check out this post. It will throw some light on why people may get unexpected verbal scores in the actual GMAT: https://www.gmatclub.com/forum/veritas-prep-resource-links-no-longer-available-399979.html#/2013/08 ... bal-score/
