I agree with nelz007: the
GMAT Club tests are great practice, but they're pretty tough. I also think that the results of any test besides GMATPrep need to be taken with a grain of salt. The
GMAT Club tests contain plenty of very tasty questions, but it's incredibly difficult for anybody to perfectly copy the GMAT question style and scoring algorithm. Whenever you do tests from any non-official source, focus on learning as much as you can from your mistakes. The score may or may not be accurate, and you should be careful not to let the scores mess with your head.
Ozodam81, I have no idea if you have a "real quant problem" or if the
GMAT Club tests are simply disproportionately hard for you, but I would be careful not to overreact to your scores. If your GMATPrep results are good, than you might be on track. Just learn as much as you can from the
GMAT Club tests, and don't let the score ruin your day.
Cwary, you get kudos just for the bartending school reference. Good stuff. And sure, you probably need to keep working hard on quant, but if you can get a 740/46/45 on GMATPrep, you don't have too much to worry about.
In terms of the scoring algorithm, it's often true that you can miss far fewer questions on the verbal, and still get a crappier score than on the quant section. Oddly enough, the quant and verbal scales aren't really comparable. I would argue that a 45V is an AMAZING score, and a 45Q is simply solid. You could miss as many as 20 questions and get a 45Q (as long as you're avoiding careless errors and missing only the tougher questions), but a 45V is only possible if you get almost every question right.
I hope this helps!
