Hi, guys.
I've just taken an official GMAT mock test (from MBA website) and I've scored 650 (Q45,V34).
I don't understand how i could have take V34 since my correct answers were 28 out of 36.
I know that the system is adaptive.
Do you think that the problem is that i've missed to much questions in the first 10?

Could you please help me to understand why?

Hi spaccaginav.
GMAT verbal is scored differently from quant. In quant, you can miss 8 questions and score in the upper 40s.
In verbal, missing 8 questions will result in your scoring in the low 40s max, and often results in a score in the 30s.
In your case, your missing relatively easy questions toward the beginning of the verbal section dragged the difficulty level of the entire section down, with the result that you scored V34, rather than in the upper 30s or low 40s, with 8 missed questions.
For some ideas you can use to increase your verbal score, see this post.

scoring algorithm is dependent on question's difficulty level and sequence in which incorrect options were chosen
do not waste time pondering why score came low , rather focus on why the answer you selected was wrong ..
