Thanks for asking!
We have a lot of quant tests and data from users, and have been able to run multiple analyses and correlations over the years. We have finalized our current algorithm in the fall of 2014 and it still is going strong in terms of giving you a realistic picture (in the fall, we have added additional control points to make the results more accurate in non-normal situations; the actual algorithm and testing go back even further). As the result, quant is quite-well correlated and quite accurate (sometimes even more so than GMAT Prep results).
Verbal is not as accurate however, due to question counts and the fact that verbal questions are so peculiar.
On the positive side, we have been adding questions to the tests. This year, we have added
53 Quant questions and 15 verbal. We have another 25 Quant and another 50 Verbal coming in the next 6 weeks. Just did not have time to add them.
Hope this helps
