How much does this score translate to GMAT verbal score?

Probably good to take a fresh Official Mock to get a sense of where your current scoring level is. One reason is because Quant or Verbal performance on a Mock or Official exam is not necessarily directly related to a person's accuracy on questions. Poor time management, for example, can impact a score.

If you decide to give a mock, try to simulate exam conditions as close as possible. All the best with Verbal.

Hi!

How much does this score translate to GMAT verbal score?

Thanks!

Hi. You should have received a verbal score at the end of your test. Did you not get a Verbal score?

Hi bb,

Yes, I did get a score. It was V35.
But I have constantly been getting ~V40 in OG Mock Tests. Like in the last OG Mock that I took, 28 were correct and 8 were incorrect answers. With that, I got a V40.
So I was a little disheartened to see a score of V35 :(

When I was checking the summary of the results of all of my GMAT Club sectional mocks, I noticed that the best Verbal score is mentioned as 6 (this is the attempt where I just ended the exam by mistake). Though I have scored 29, 33 and 35. So I thought may be there's some glitch in the verbal score as well?

Hi GmatTutorKnight,

I wrote official GMAT test yesterday and got a V40.
Two days before, I wrote another GMAT Mock test, and had scored 40 there too

Hi bambinobirbante,

We last discussed your studies back in August - and at that time, you were planning to take the Official GMAT (with the plan to take the Exam again in January or February of 2023). Did you end up taking the Official GMAT at that time - and if you did, then how did you score (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?

Hi Rich!
I have my exam next week. I will share how it goes:)

Hi bambinobirbante

Assuming those questions and difficulties accurately represent what appears on the GMAT, you can expect to score around V33.

To get some additional insights into how question performance translates to GMAT scores, you could see this post.

Hi Marty,

Thank you for sharing the article. It gives some perspective now! :)

Hi bambinobirbante

To answer your concern, comparing two different test series is probably not the best utilization of your time. It’s not a like-for-like comparison. The two mock test series could be very different in terms of difficulty (one may be harder/easier than the other) and even quality of questions. For all you know, a V35 in that GMAT Club test could be equal to, higher than, or much lower than a V40 in an official mock.

Because an official mock is closest to the actual exam, there’s a good chance that your current actual GMAT score lies within 10-20 points of your official mock scores. So, stick to your Official Mock as a measure of your test readiness.

Finally, I think a better utilization of your time is to analyze your Verbal sub-sections (SC, CR and RC), identify if there are any gaps, and then do the required course-corrections. To take a deep-dive into your Verbal abilities, you can take a free SIGma-X mock test in the e-GMAT free trial course. It comes with an ESR analysis like the official Enhanced Score Report. Here is the link.

The SIGma-X mock will provide a sub-sectional measure of your abilities in percentiles, not just accuracies. This would give you more clarity to
  1. Identify your strong/weak sub-sections
  2. Prepare an improvement plan for weaker sub-sections.

This article would provide you more details on the ability insights provided by the SIGma-X mocks.

Hope this helps.
