👀 wow. This is nutty. This is official score or practice?

We had a similar situation with a person missing just 1 question and getting 80th percentile or smth like that. This is super weird. I would ping them.

Official score. In the mocks, I would consistently get 6-10 incorrect and receive roughly the same score (+- point from 78).

Oh. Here is another test taker with 2 questions missed on Focus

Quantitative Reasoning : 19/21 -> 81 -> 71st ( probably I missed hardest questions)

Might be worth checking out some of the publicly shared scoring info by people who've taken the Focus. You could compare some of their results with your own.

Hi bb, anyway possible for you to raise this with GMAC and get some possible explanation on this?

Frankly, hearing these experiences scares me more as i always consider Quant to my strength and get max score possible there

Sure. I can. It does not mean they will reply however :lol:
P.S. I am still looking for the debrief with 1 wrong that resulted into a pretty low score as well... so let me find it and I can then send a few of these over early next week (no use sending on a Friday).

Well, I see the OP is going to take it up with the GMAC, and they removed their scores/post, so it is going to be trickier without the details... need at least 2 or better 3 data points.
