No point raising it with the GMAC, they would just tell you to shift to Focus edition. Anyway Classic is going to be discontinued in a month
If they tell us to shift to focused, it is a strong evidence that things are biased. And besides, point is to let them know. I am sure they take standardization of the test very seriously. If 650 guy is more skilled than 720 guy, the test would get discredited

same happened with me guys
my mock scores were like :-
Gmat official mock 1 700
Gmat official mock 2 780
Gmat official mock 3 720

Jamboree mock 740
Jamboree mock 740
Jamboree mock 710
Jamboree mock 750
Jamboree mock 730

i ended up scoring 630

initially i blamed it on my “lack of sleep prior to test”

but the story now looks somewhat different

glad someone initiated this topic

what should be the way forward
shall i appear for gmat classic or shift to gmat focus
i have to attempt test prior to 29 jan 2024

any help will be appreciated
Thanks

I am making a group. Let us collect people with similar experiences. If enough people raise this issue, I am sure GMAC will pay attention.

In my opinion, the sunset of the Classic version is on 31st Jan. Then what’s the point making the test difficult? Are u guys sure about this or it’s just a fluke?

So far i have collected views from 15-17 recent test takers. EVERY SINGLE OF THEM have the same opinion

The point is to try and not just pray that things wil magically fall in place this time for an exam which requires significant investment and effort

Yes agreed! But saw the similar post on the Forum and BB had confirmed that the classic version is not difficult. So, it’s just a fluke.
